I am a patient of Dr. Thien, he has been not only an excellent doctor, but, also very caring and an understanding man! I also choose this doctor for my dad, and Dr. Thien has treated him with the utmost respect. I would recommend this doctor to everyone.

I was very satisfied with Dr Thien and the entire staff. He stiched me up, took an xray of my shoulder and told me I could go home. I probably spent an hour and 30 minutes in the office. No a long wait for a walk in. There was a large number of people in the clinic.
