    Dr Chen took the time to explain my fracture and showed me on the X-ray where it was..he explained the time frames for healing and follow ups

    He spent so much time with me explaining my MRI and he told me actually I did not need surgery and he would order physical therapy. He explained the reason why everything made sense. I was so upset that I almost had surgery with another Doctor who I was not happy with or that whole office that I started to cry and he gave me a Kleenex. I was shocked that I almost had surgery for no reason.

    He is very good about explaining what he is doing and why. Also good about giving options and alternatives. He listens to my questions and I feel he gives good honest feedback. He is careful when giving shots and asks to be sure the area is adequately numbed. A very caring and compassionate Dr.
