How likely are you to recommend Dr. Chen?
I've been going to this practice in one location or the other for the past 7-8 years. I originally went to the Liberty location but then switched to the Whitney Ave location because it is closer. I have only ever seen the nurse practitioners at this location, who are fine. Other than that, Dr. Chen did my colonoscopy and spent approximately 5 seconds telling me the result by poking his head around the corner of an office. Zero bedside manner. The NPs here are fine, although over the past few visits I feel as though they've been short and frustrated with me even though I am compliant with treatment, meds, etc. I suppose they are frustrated because I have GI issues that are ongoing and, although not extremely severe, are very uncomfortable to me. On the other hand, the administrative staff are very kind and there are two of the regular nurses that have been fantastic. I am only giving this practice 4 stars because of the staff OTHER than Dr. Chen.
