Dr. Chen is a highly compassionate and dedicated oncologist who has provided the best personalized care possible for my sister who recently died of a rare terminal cancer. He has gone beyond the call of duty to care for my sister His care extends to care for the wellness of the primary caretaker and family in selecting the palliative care options. He is culturally sensitive and has great bedside manner. My sister couldn't have lived as long if it wasn't for Dr. Chen's expertise and dedication!

I feel that Doctor Chen has cared for me the same way that he would for a loved one or friend. He has taken so much extra time and is one of the few doctors that I have ever found that listens and tries to solve any medical problems which you may have even those not related to the original problem for which he may have been treating you. He views his patients as a "whole" person and not merely the disease which they are struggling with. He is knowledgeable and if he doesn't know it at that moment because it is not in his specialty he helps to find the answer.He is thorough and smart and leaves you feeling comfortable because you are in his care. He is a fine and knowledgable doctor and an extremely caring human being. I feel so lucky to have him as my oncologist!

Dr. Chen is everything that an excellent doctor should be! He is caring, compassionate and knowledgeable! Most of all, he listens and does everything that he possibly can do to keep you in good health. I have never had a doctor who went so beyond what he needed to do. He is everything that you would want in an ocologist and a whole lot more! He deserves to have at least double whatever the top rating is!
