Jul 06, 2020
Dr.Alfred Shen is the most caring, compassions,understanding,patient Neurosurgeon in the Coachella Valley area.He took care of my Mom’s back over 15yrs ago and I saw how caring he was with her and I new that if I ever had a back problem and needed surgery that Dr.Shen would be the one the fix it.NOW I’ve had back pain for 9yrs and after it got worse and the only option was surgery Dr.Shen is the ONLY one I cared to do my surgery his STAFF are all wonderful and so is his PA Mic Griswold.I would referrer Dr.Shen to everyone I know that needs the best Neurosurgeon. His bedside manner are the best. I now have a better life and PAIN FREE and it’s all thanks to Dr.Shen.
