His medical knowledge and thoroughness are frequently commended, with many noting he explains conditions and treatment options clearly in understandable terms.

Patients also share
A small number of reviews mention areas for improvement. One patient noted that Dr. Chen sometimes talks about himself and his family during appointments, which can take up limited appointment time. Another patient felt rushed during their visit and indicated the provider did not ask about their concerns or a recent diagnosis. One review mentioned that while Dr. Chen is generally excellent, there is always room for improvement no matter how good a provider is. These concerns represent a very small fraction of the overall feedback.
