Patient Reviews
Jul 30, 2024
Dr. Kenneth Y. Chern performed arthroscopic surgery on my right shoulder, and I’m now 13 weeks into my recovery. I’m pleased to report that my progress has been excellent. Dr. Chern has been both helpful and informative throughout the process. II would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a shoulder specialist.
