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 coa... read more

Do not recommend. Like the other reviewer I was demoed, scolded and insulted and near tears by the end of the visit. I have a PPO and can anywhere thankfully. I will not return here and recommend others to avoid. They don't care about you or you getting better. All they want is to push medications and expensive procedures that don't work on you so they can make money off you. You are not a patient but simply a number and dollar sign. I will never return.

Dr Chen uses effective and low risk procedures to treat pain. I have deferred surgery and instead found relief from trigger point injections, radiofrequency ablation along with referrals to physical therapy and chiropractic assessment. Dr Chen is a good listener and explains how the mind and body work together in recommending treatment alternatives. He encourages me to use exercise and reduce stress as well to manage pain.

If I could give Dr Chen 10 stars I would do so. I have been seeing him for over six years for chronic back pain. He has been caring and a good listener. I have received spinal injections and trigger point injections. I have referred several friends to him.

While a competent medical practitioner, Dr. Chen is so insulting, he left me in tears. After seeing how his behavior had affected me, rather than give me an apology for his behavior, he gave me a speech that served as justification for his insulting behavior, Along with a veiled threat of refusing to treat in the future.

Sometimes I feel guilty coming in for a appointment with all the negativity of my chronic pain issues. Dr Chen always makes me feel better with kind words and a professional knowledge of my back and nerve pain. Dr Chen helped me understand the mental side of chronic pain. Both of my parents have passed away in the past 10 months and stress can shoot your pain level up. Dr Chen has given me the knowledge of how to cope with the mental side of chronic pain. Thank you Dr Chen and your awesome staff

I wouldn't recommend Dr. Chen to anyone!! He's not compassionate at all and isn't a good Dr at all.

Dr. Chen has been fantastic when dealing with my pain from a Car accident Injury. He's performed multiple Trigger Point injections and 2 Ablations all in my neck area. He's very friendly and personable, I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking help when dealing with a pain issue.

I am 75 years old and consider Dr. Chen the best Doctor I ever had. He is extremely kind, listens to his patient shows a lot of empathy, it would be great more Doctors would be like him, I am very lucky to have found him.
