Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Chen is the best. I’ve seen him for 5 years. Consistency beyond measure. Helps beyond measure! Comforts me with information!

Dr. Chen- an ideal doctor
Dr. Chen is easy to talk to and very conscientious. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone I know because I feel confident that he keeps up on all knowledge in the field. Dr. Chen and all the practitioners at the Tualatin clinic are always very helpful and considerate.

The staff is professional and friendly. The nurse anesthetist, Jamie was wonderful. He listened to my concern about post procedural nausea and thanks to his care, I had none. Dr. Chen, as always (my second colonoscopy with him) is caring, experienced and professional. I had no problems with the procedure.

From start to finish, Dr. Chen and his team put me right at ease, and made sure that I was comfortable. Two hours from the time I walked into the clinic I was on my way home, feeling no pain at all. I had absolutely no ill side effects from the procedure, and would recommend anyone over the age of 50 to consider Dr. Chen for your Colonoscopy

I appreciate everything doctor Chen has helped me with. He clearly explains things and I feel as though he truly cares as a doctor. He became my dr. after I was hospitalized and found out I was facing very difficult diagnosis. He has helped me navigate my health and provided exceptional care. He listens to all of my concerns sand looks at every avenue before jumping to diagnosis or prescribe things.

Dr. Woods performed a colonoscopy for me. He was very professional and answered any questions I had. We were able to discuss symptoms I had years ago, compare them with the findings of the test, and come to a conclusion.
