My dad had a heart attack and ambulance took him from Franklin General to North Shore Hosp. Sadly, Dr. Chen does not have priviliges there. But I did call him to advise him of situation. He was nice enough to speak the doctor at NSUH who was treating him. He was nice enough to follow up with us to see how dad was. We are seeing him next week. What a nice committed doctor. Highly recommend him and I know my dad is in good hands.

I just read another review about Dr Chen's office and the "confused staff". I am sorry that this patient had a bad experience with the doctors office, I can't say I feel the same way. I have called into the office several times over the last two years and I am always very appreciative that Dr. Chen himself always responds quickly to my questions. Additionally he has called me personally to go over what I would call routine blood work results. I am very satisfied with the care I receive here. The waiting room can sometimes seem extremely busy, however the wait is never very long as there are several doctors, and various testing areas that patients are waiting for. I highly recommend Dr. Chen!

Dr. Chen is a highly skilled and compassionate Physician, that is part of South Shore Heart, who is made up of a unique group of doctors and staff. It is nice to know that if needed you have a highly skilled doctor always available.

that will probably not pass on the messages you leave for this doctor that is only in once a week. If you need to speak to him in an emergency forget it. He also does not return calls from your regular doctor-probably because his staff never bothered to write out the message that he called. This place is like a factory and it's too bad he is affiliated with them here because he does seem to be a smart and caring doctor. I just can't recommend him based on the way this office operates. Go somewhere else.
