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.

I felt very nervous ahead of my appointment, but Dr. Chen quickly put me at ease. He was able to show me what the problem was and explained my diagnosis in terms that were easy to understand. I appreciated that he offered suggestions for at-home remedies and explained what surgical treatment would be involved if I need to pursue that option in the future. Overall, a quick and painless visit with a kind and knowledgeable provider.

He was very friendly and professional, and seemed very competent, but he didn't really seem to have time to listen to all of the ENT symptoms I am exoskeleton and give options for care overall, though he did for the nasal passages. It felt like he didn't have the time to be present long enough to consider the whole picture and assess underlying causes to find remedies.He was also distracted by the new layout of the office where the chair didn't move or gave the equipment he needed to use, which was not at all his fault.
