Patient Reviews
Aug 31, 2018
I have a very tight rectum and rectal exams are almost always very painful. Dr. Chern examined me recently. She was extremely gentle. First time ever I’ve had this exam with absolutely no pain. Also, every member of her staff I've talked to has been very encouraging and uplifting. I would definitely recommend Dr. Chern to others.
