Patient Reviews
Dec 04, 2022
I am an MD internist/ medical subspecialist with > 4 decades experience in the East Bay. Dr Chin has done 2 mesh laparoscopic inguinal hernia repairs on me. I have received excellent results and excellent care from Dr Chin. He takes time to explain the procedure and post op care. I highly recommend him without any reservation.
