I have been getting back injections with Dr. Chen for the past 10 years. It has been a lifesaver for me! He does a good job explaining my problems with me.

I didn’t want to just hide my pain with meds. Dr. Chen actually gave me other options. I was able to take my dog for a walk which I had not done in a long time!

Dr. Chen did a great job explaining what was the source of my pain. The back injections have done wonders in allowing me to continue to work.

I had RSD in my right leg. I was seen immediately and received injections which with physical therapy resolved the pain. Dr. Chen was very caring during the entire process.
