Patient Reviews
Feb 21, 2024
I had severe neck pain and Dr Chen was able to solve the issue in one visit. I then began working with him regarding my long-standing back and knee pain and I have never looked for another doctor since. Dr Chen is not a 'pain meds and see you next week' doctor. You won't find that here. He connects with you to understand the cause of the injury and how to defeat the problem, not just mask the pain. When I tore my meniscus, I discovered PRP was an alternative to automatically getting surgery. I was shocked that it worked so well, and this led me to using the same procedure to help with my back, which had been injured 20 years prior. The results were also excellent. One PRP treatment and I no longer rely on drugs for pain. We've now moved on to arthritis management.The office is well staffed, and appointments are well managed, with time to connect with Dr Chen both before and after procedures. If you are looking for better pain management, this is the place!
