    Dr Chen and his resident were wonderful answered my questions thoroughly

    November 11, 2022

    I mentioned concerns I was having and the doctor did not even look or examine at my concerns. I came because I wanted to know if I was physically well in every way, and all he did was look in to my ears and throats. Literally, that was the extent of his time with me. He didn't want to get to the bottom of the concerns I came to him with.
