Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2024
I was a patient of Dr Allen Chen's for several yrs. My last visit with him was June 2024. I have several autoimmune diseases, diabetic neurapathy, Fibromyalgia, 2 types arthritis. Pain is a major part of my life. So I know what it can do to you. Unfortunately it requires a lot of work mentally physically and often family and friends don't understand. But, Dr Chen was AMAZING. For me he was a listener. He had great ideas and advice. He isn't a pill popper and or pusher and is honest abt your options. Dr Chen doesn't sugar coat which none of us needs but he has NEVER been rude or neglectful. Pain is rarely a solveable problem when you have certain diseases, syndromes, etc. Don't look for a magic ball. Unless you do the work you won't get relief. And, unfortunately sometimes there's no relief to be had. Dr Chen is the BEST pain, spine, acupuncture specialist I've ever been to.
