I went to Dr. Chen for Masseter Botox. I had a wonderful experience. The staff was extremely accommodating and Dr. Chen made the experience a very smooth and painless procedure! I will be coming back more often and I am very happy with the appointment. read more

At first Dr. Chen seemed to care about my condition. He's very charming, but I felt like he washed his hands of me once he got my $4,000 for PRP treatments. And the treatment didn't work and I think once he realized nothing he did was helping it was like well whatever I don't care about your issues! He was also contradicting! One day he advised one thing then another appointment he advised something totally different. Get ready to wait as he overbooks and is alway running late. I thought it was weird how most of his staff got replaced in an instant. Also, he gives you a free B12 shot if you write a review so all the positive reviews could be a result of new patients wanting to take advantage of that free perk. If he's treatments are bandaids. Instead, find the root issue like leaky disc and get the Discseel surgery. read more

Dr. Yung Chen is one of the most understanding and helpful MDs I have met in my life. He always goes out of his way to make sure his patients feel seen, helped, and respected. His staff are very polite and helpful as well. He has expectations of his staff and they exceed it all. I highly recommend seeing him if you are in any acute or chronic pain. 10/10 all the time! read more

Yung Chen, MD - Sports Medicine Near Me - San Mateo, California

Great service - this is a small doctor office and I had a small misunderstanding with the receptionist. The office and doctor made it up to me later that day with service. read more

Dr. Chen is wonderful! Extremely knowledgeable , caring & compassionate! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lore conservative approach to pain management. His staff is very personable & accommodating to my needs. read more

The doctor is a hustler ... I went to him for pain management ... as soon as i entered he offered me an injection in my butt ... just to pad his ball ... he sees up to 80 patients a day ... he dresses the rest of his staff in white surgical clothes to make them look professional but they are really not .. i had an epidural during a visit ... to camouflage how flimsy their room is for this procedure (tiny) two of the staff hustle you in and you don't even get a chance to size up the machine .. then he tries to offer you stem cell treatments ... this man has stanford credentials but from my experience he might as well be a quack... read more

I have been Dr. Yung Chen's patient for two years and I can't recommend him enough. I had been suffering from TMJ pain and chronic back pain for years and had seen many doctors without much success. Thankfully, I found Dr. Chen at San Mateo Spine Center. He took the time to listen, ordered MRIs, and gave me various treatment options to consider. I ultimately decided to try PRF (a form of regenerative medicine using stem cells), which I had never tried before. The results have been life-changing--he quite literally saved my life. Dr. Chen also administered Botox injections for my TMJ pain, and his expertise with fine needles and imaging guidance made the process almost painless. Unlike other doctors, he specializes in these precise techniques, and the difference was remarkable. Not only is Dr. Chen incredible, but his entire staff is equally wonderful. They offer warm, compassionate care with a personal touch, making every visit a positive experience. Karla, Teressa, Alvin are all amazing assistants. If you are considering PRP or PRF treatments, I highly recommend Dr. Chen. You will be in the best hands! read more

I saw Dr. Chen for low back pain many years ago and he was very helpful. He had a number of treatments for my back, including epidural injections, providing a tens unit, and acupuncture. The back pain resolved. 1.5 years ago, I developed a neck problem, including two bulging discs. I was worried that I would need surgery, but his epidural injection plus the physical therapy he sent me to resolved the problem. I had a brief flare-up this year, and he successfully helped me with this issue, too. He is very well-trained (including at Stanford) and he has many nonsurgical solutions. He is also very kind person who listens. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Chen for a few months now due to excruciating pain in my lower back and sciatica radiating down my right leg. He recommended a regenerative procedure called PRF which has transformed my life. I am about 90% pain free with very infrequent sciatica symptoms. I love that he is all about regenerative medicine and alternative treatments (acupuncture, red light therapy). His long term goal for me is healing from within....which completely aligns with my beliefs. His staff is incredibly attentive and always makes sure I am completely cared for and comfortable during my office visits. I am excited for my second PRF treatment next week as I have felt tremendous relief from the first one. I strongly recommend Dr. Chen's care and I know his staff will take great care of you, as well! read more

The greatest ever. I will drive from wherever I have to for this level of care! I was set for neck surgery and Dr. Chen figured out a non invasive treatment with facet injections that helped me greatly. read more

I have been with Dr. Chen for many years and he has offered such a good comprehensive care treatment for all of his pateints. He is a good conservative specialist and his treatment have helped others and myself significantly. Thanks Dr. Chen read more

Kind, patient and professional. Thank you Dr Yung and staff. Great location in San Mateo.

Dr Chen is the best! He has been taking care of me for years, he is one of the few doctors who really listens and is able to explain what is happening, why it's happening along with treatment options. His recommendations are accurate and improved my quality of life from limited mobility to being able to enjoy activities with my kids again. His office staff is professional, courteous, and efficient. Highly recommend him! read more

Dr.Yung Chen has been my doctor for years. He is an intelligent, efficient, caring professional! He has all the solutions to get you back to where you need to be to regain your life back. I have suffered from chronic pain since 2014. Ever since I've seen Dr. Yung Chen, he has developed a plan to get my life back with full mobility. His services include pain management such as epidurals, trigger point shots, acupuncture, etc... But most effectively, PRP, PRF treatments. These treatments are where it's at. These are the treatments that have been life-changing for me. I suffer from severe osteoarthritis in my back, knees, and hand/wrist. The difference between going to Dr Yung Chen and someone else, is the expertise and valued experience, Dr. Yung Chen has. He has kept my treatment cost down, because of his intelligent experience. He knows exactly where to strategically disperse PRP and/or PRF treatment shots. If you are suffering from chronic pain, need to get your life back to normal daily duties, and achieve an active lifestyle like myself, which is so important to me, and my mental health, see Dr Yung Chen! He will get you where you need to be in life! He is a wonderful doctor with knowledgeable, active listening skills. A real patient advocate!

His office staff is helpful, approachable, friendly, knowledgeable. Please be kind with them! They are extremely helpful, and always, actively listening to your needs! Thank you for your everyday hard work! read more

Beautiful office, the nicest office i've ever been in, super hospitable and caring. Dr Chen is Competent, Kind, and very assuring. The Doctors assistant who helped me, Teresa is a really kind soul very helpful, easy to talk to and caring. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needed care. They provided me everything I needed to fix my injury and more. Professional and Personable! read more

Very unhappy that Dr Chen's office sent an outstanding balance to a collection agency. First of all, you have to pay prior to service so I have no idea how I could even have an outstanding balance. Further, I've spent well over $30,000 in his office, so not sure why they would send me to collections for $485 and not just pick up the phone and call me if I actually even have this balance due?!?!? Sigh. Oh well, just another money grubbing doctor's office I guess. I left a message with the business office so I'll see how eager they are to return my call now that they've gone from 5 stars to 1 Star. read more

After much ado, my money has been refunded to me. I appreciate this, so I am raising my review to 4 stars. A woman from the billing department called yesterday to inform me that I had been refunded and requested that I retract my review. The fact that it took 6 months and a poor review to fix my billing issue is objectively ridiculous. "Remove your review" without any sort of acknowledgment of why it was written in the first place did not make a great impression. Other than management's public response to my review, I haven't received any sort of communication; I have heard nothing of how they'll handle problems like this in the future. I can only assume their response was due to a desire to remedy their public image, not genuine concern for how to better their systems to prevent this from happening again. Because of this, I think it is important to leave my original review up just in case anyone else goes through what I did. If you can't get through to anyone to fix your problem, a review may help get management's attention. As I said in my previous review, Dr. Chen listens and supports his patients in their chosen treatment pathway and those who work there are friendly and kind. If I was just reviewing him alone, it'd be 5 stars easily. The office organization, outsourced billing department, the demeanor of every single person I've had to talk to throughout this debacle (literally was told "we're a team, so I can't say if anyone made a mistake here"), and inability to talk to someone with any sort of power when having an issue is the reason I am docking 1 star for this practice. read more

In 2009 I broke my back. I fractured my coccyx and herniated 4 lower lumbar disc's. Fast forward 2022, I have a terrible fall that leaves me unable to use my hands, arms, legs or feet. I was basically paralyzed. I couldn't stand even holding on to something. I would just fall down. I was referred to Dr. Yung by my sister in law who had terrible sciatica. She raved about what a wonderful doctor he was and how much he helped her, perhaps he could help me too. On the 1st visit I needed help getting there as I couldn't walk, my limbs were paralyzed. The first treatment I was given was a couple injections and acupuncture. I was an agony! He explained that we would 1st have to put out what he called the "fire". He was absolutely right, I was in such excruciating pain I felt like I was on fire. He also sent me for an MRI. The MRI showed I have 9 herniated disc's. Within 3 visits Dr. Chen had me up walking on my own again. Frankly I thought I would never walk again. It was terrifying! I have the utmost faith in Dr. Chen. He is a miracle worker in my opinion. As I stated earlier I couldn't even stand holding onto something. I would just fall down. I see some people talking about the lack of time he has to spend with patients. They're right, he doesn't have a lot of time to spend. It's because he's a good doctor who's helping people. And that makes him a "very busy doctor". He's made me feel like a new person again and I've only seen him 11 times or so. He is helped me tremendously. I am so grateful to to have found him. I haven't felt this good in years. If you're in pain and looking for someone who can help, please take a chance with him. He and his staff are wonderful and we'll be there to help you. read more

I would like to update my review for DR Yung Chen. I realized it was my insurance (United Health Care) that was giving me the runaround. Dr. Chen's office contacted them multiple times and their story was different every time for its coverage. I've received the card that I need and I continue my visit to Dr. Chen for pain management until I have time to get back surgery. read more

Just wanted to post an update to my review of 3-16-22. I am still doing great with Dr Chen's treatment of my lower back issues (bulged disc in lower back). I go for acupuncture once a week and do a lumbar epidural twice a year. This program has kept me in great shape. I still have the occasional flare up which we treat with trigger point injections and that is enough to keep me up and running. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone that is having back issues to come and see Dr Chen. His staff is always so professional and courteous. His care has made all the difference for me. read more

UPDATE for 5/30/19: Today they came groveling back to me to try to make me retract my Yelp review below, but this is my story, and I'm sticking to it! My review: I saw Dr. Chen only two times. I was diagnosed with Spondylitis in my lower back and two tiny fractures from childhood that began to hurt. I was interested in seeing him because after researching, he didn't seem "surgery happy". That was a plus. The first time I saw him, he was very kind and interested in what I had to say. He gave me a steroid injection to stop the pain. The second time I saw him, I saw his assistant first who wasn't able to answer all of my questions so he told me to ask Dr. Chen when he came in. Dr. Chen did come in but made no eye contact with me and then said that he would write down the name of a surgeon for me even though in the previous appointment I told him I didn't want surgery. He was very rushed, then left, and came back briefly and gave me another steroid injection that frankly, hurt like hell unlike the first one. He was so preoccupied that I saw him pocket the piece of paper with the surgeon's name on it even though I had no desire to have the name. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to even ask Dr. Chen one question. Both my visits were like night and day. The first visit was great, and the second visit was not. After Dr. Chen left the room, his assistant told me to get a prescription for a drug to bring the inflammation down which I didn't do due to all the scary side effects including death which he didn't even tell me about. As I was leaving, I saw Dr. Chen rushing into another room. I can understand how busy doctors can be, but my gut kept telling me it's all about the money. Charming and understanding on the first visit to pull me in, and after that, constant injections to reduce the pain and get me hooked. I read the book "Crooked: Outwitting the Back Pain Industry and Getting on the Road to Recovery", and for many spine specialists, the injections are their bread and butter. Well, I can see why. I got the bill and for those two shots, each one was over $600! I would never have paid that kind of money if I had known. Plus, the billing department directly charged my credit card. I spoke to my insurance company, and what they were doing was unethical. I called Dr. Chen's billing department, and they were able to lower the bill. It's really up to you to see Dr. Chen and his staff, but for me personally, I'm doing my own exercises at home including eating an anti-inflammatory diet, and I'm getting better. I will never fully be healed with what I have, but I'm also not dependent on someone giving me steroids at every visit and simply ignoring me as their patient. Those two steroid shots alone that I had put on ten pounds. No thank you! Good luck to you all! read more

Pathetic people. Money suckers. I told them before taking appt what i'm going through and what care i need. When I reached there they said we can not do anything and we will refer you to other doctor. Just selling the botox injections and acupuncture. Highly unprofessional. read more

Dr. Yung Chen was invaluable in helping me recover from an injury to my cervical spine. I was given a diagnoses of having had parsonage turner syndrome that caused nerve damage to my right arm and hand from a previous doctor. But then, I started having severe pain and lack of stability in my neck and shoulders. I started having pins and needles in my left hand and forearm. My previous doctor was done helping me. And my previous experience was waiting months between appointments with various specialists. Dr. Chen saw me quickly, and he diagnosed that I had a whiplash injury from my fall in my home, and that I lost the curve to my cervical spine, which was causing nerve issues. He helped me see a physical therapist to regain curve to my spine, versus previous physical therapists were trying to give me exercises to be straighter, since they were given the wrong diagnosis. I had a series of botox injections in my neck and trapezius muscles, because they were in a constant state of extreme tension. This made a big difference. I also had PRP injections to my whole cervical spine. It took 1-2 months to see results from this treatment. But then, I began the path towards recovery. Previously, Stanford was suggesting that I see a pain psychotherapist because my case was hopeless. Dr. Chen gave me hope. And I really appreciated his acupuncture visits, because then I could see and talk to him on a weekly basis. This is priceless! read more

Yelp should have a TEN star rating because Dr. Chen and his fantastic staff deserve it!!! San Mateo Spine Center is not just a medical office, it's a group of hard working dedicated professionals! Dr. Chen's staff are the most amazing and caring group of medical professionals I have ever met. You can feel the quality of care and service instantly as soon as you walk in the door. The office and patient rooms are spotless ! The attention to detail and keeping everything sterile and clean for their patients is positively notable. I am a Mom of three teens, twin boy's (16) and a daughter (18) and I work full time . I am so grateful to Dr. Chen because he has brought me pain relieve and healed me. I have suffered for years with numb hands and neck problems. Additionally, Dr.Chen always take the time to chat with me and ask about my children. Dr. Chen's knowledge and experience is superb!There really is no other adjective to describe Dr. Chen accept to say he is the BEST. His years or experience paired with his continuous commitment to quality care for his patients puts him in a class above all other doctors. As soon as you speak with him you know he is genuine and an expert. My children and I are forever grateful to Dr. Chen for helping me feel better and always being there for us. You will not be disappointed after visiting the San Mateo Spine Center. read more

I was going through a lot of stress which caused tension and stiffness in my neck. I came to Dr. Chen hoping to get some understanding and alleviation for my neck pain and my overall experience was great. I was able to get immediate attention for my neck pain, specifically injections, in which I was told I would most likely get great results after 2-3 days but I found immediate pain relief following the injection. The procedure itself was painless and quick so if you have fear of needles, Dr. Chen does his best to make you very comfortable! He has a very good hand and his staff provides a great educational experience! Highly recommend! read more

Last Friday (March 19, 2021) I fell walking around a hilly yard with a lot of wooden steps on a home valuation for a potential client. I was badly bruised all over. I felt paralyzed, barely able to lift my arms. Later that evening, the pain got worse. My wife brought me to Peninsula Hospital where I waited in the emergency room for over 4 hours only to be seen by an impatient person in green for 5 minutes. I was given a shot, a sling to wear, prescribed medication and sent home. Unsatisfied, I called Dr. Yung C. Chen. The experience was night and day. I received immediate attention and care. I felt better right away. He has all the equipment (Diagnostic Imaging and more) In his nice-looking sophisticated office with plenty of privacy and lots of parking. Dr. Yung C. Chen is top-notch - Unbeatable Service! I highly recommend Dr. Yung C. Chen. read more

Hands down one of the best doctors in the United States. A specialist with spine and sport injury with double practice in both western medicine and acupuncture. Dr Yung Chen will recommend both solutions to ensure you have a painless and fast recovery. I had a terrible AC Separation and because of Dr Chen's treatment, I was much better after 2-3 weeks which is a miracle if you ask any surgeon. The new facility is extremely modern and the staff is super friendly. You can feel Dr Chen and his team really care for your needs. X-ray available onsite without having to go to multiple locations. Highly recommend Dr Yung Chen for all your injuries, pain, or spinal needs. You won't regret it as it's a one stop shop to your speedy recovery. read more

Dr Chen (or Dr Sunshine :-) is amazing and ALWAYS in a good mood. He's a consummate professional there to serve in any capacity to help elevate pain and has your overall health and well being as his top priority at all times. His staff is well trained and a pleasure to work with. In addition to my pain management program with Dr Chen, I have been getting Vitamin C IV's and B Complex shots weekly for almost 2 years during this extremely difficult stretch in my life. In addition to Covid, I have been caring for my 94 yr old mother long distance, through her death mid year (over 40 flights during this time), and now the hassles of a trust with a large number of siblings, and I've never felt better both physically and mentally. I would totally recommend this type of health regiment if you are stressed, overwhelmed, overworked, or just need a boost of energy once in a while. read more

My wife has been seeing Dr. Chen for quite some time now. We were referred by our family doctor from Burlingame to Dr. Chen. Dr. Chen was able to help my wife lower back when she was in so much pain. He cares about his patients and the office is always busy. So wonder why so many of his patients are waiting to be seen. The holistic treatment Acupuncture also helps my wife back discomfort. We are so blessed our insurance is in-network with Dr. Chen. He will tell you the good care of action to take and plans to heal faster. Dr. Chen never forgets about his patients and I've seen patients hugging him makes us feel very comfortable. The quantity of care is excellent. I highly recommend Dr. Chen as your pain management doctor. Hands down to Dr. Chen staffs. There are so many new faces and Dr. Chen staffs will take care of you. Dr. Chen trained his staffs very well with good bedside manners. Unlike like other doctors place that are rude and won't greet you. The previous staffs was ok but the new faces are so kind and friendly. The tall girl (i forgot her name is always very sweet and caring). Chloe and Alysa also provided excellent care for my wife. I forgot their names, (there's so many) but they are all great. Appointments are always booked, need to call ahead of time to reserve your slots. Tommy and Audrea will provide the time and day with excellent patient care services. The only draw-back is the parking spaces. It's first to come first serve for parking spaces or else you have to park at the meters. read more

He may be a good doctor but he acts more like a businessman. Every time I visit, he and his staff try to sell and promote their products and services. There are too many people working at the office and they are unorganized and unreliable. They send me a bill every month saying that I have not paid my co-payments. Luckily, I kept all my receipts so I will not be paying them more money. Their receipts are all hand-written even though I pay with a credit card. They are very frustrating and I will not be coming back here. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Chen for almost 2years for acupuncture and PRP. I was scared as much as you could imagine in the beginning but surprisingly Dr. Chen is SUPER gentle and experienced. Sabrina is AMAZING!!! They take super good care of me for each visit ! PRP really improved my conditions 80%-90% better !!! Strongly recommend Sabrina !!!! She's the most patient and sweetest assistant! This is an update review : ) I also want to take this time to thank Alyssa! She's one of the best staffs who has always been there for me since my Day 1 treatment. Alyssa is very sweet and caring. She did an excellent job explaining the PRP treatment to me before my surgery(otherwise I would have chickened out 1000 times) and provided excellent care during my surgery! It has been 9 months since I received PRP. I really feel significantly better: ) Thanks everyone at Dr. Yung Chen's office for making my life quality better : ) read more

Poor management. They give you an appointment and then when you arrived they put you on wait for hours without telling you whats going on.

Dr Chen has been seeing me for five years. He is an incredibly talented doctor and his staff is of the highest caliber. I have a physically demanding occupation and I have been impressed by the care I have received from the doctor and his staff. Dr Chen's team always takes care of me. Kelvin and Lisa are especially hospitable when they admit me. Dr Chen offers acupuncture, which has been particularly helpful with my back pain. Dr Chen always gives me a thorough check up and offers multiple suggestions and options regarding my care. I am grateful for all of the work that the doctor and his staff continue to do for me and I am confident that I have found "My Doctor". read more

After suffering with the chronic pain of a permanent back injury I was almost to the point of hopeless. After hearing about Dr Yung Chen and what he does at his clinic, I decided to give it a try. What can I say, nothing short of a miracle. For the 1st time in 20 years almost 90-95% of the pain is gone after 1 treatment. It sounds to good to be true but I am living proof and I can't wait to return back for more relief. Dr Chen and his staff are so patient, comforting and effective that I highly recommend them to anyone living in pain. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and I will be forever grateful. read more

I am incredibly grateful and humbled to have been recommended to Dr. Chen from a friend. He had saved me hugely on the two occasions both before and after my ACL knee surgery. The first time, I was in between jobs without medical coverage and tore my right ACL ligament as well as also broking my arm in the process. I came down so hard on might side with multiple defenders on top of me. (Recovery was hard, I couldn't even use crutches on my weak side. Walking was miserable.) To help manage my pain, the electric (pin?) therapy for my knee and arm then was really interesting. I was blown away by how easily and swiftly Dr. Chen placed needles into my arms and legs while talking to him. I didn't even notice and didn't even feel it. Wow, that's some expert skill! Running current through the needles is an interesting tingle. It is bizarre how effective it is. I saw Dr. Chen again more recently as it's been a year after my ligament has been surgically repaired with a cadaver ligament. It's been better than without it, but it still bugged me and tended to give still. I wasn't getting answers at Kaiser at all, they wouldn't even give me a post-op MRI despite my complaints and requests for a 2nd opinion. I kept getting the run around. So I saw Dr. Chen again and he gave me recommendations and an MRI referral else where so I can get answers. He was concerned that even over a year after my surgery, I still had swelling and he definitely concurred that I made more elasticity than I should. He was incredibly thorough and his assistant took pictures of the...not sure which device, ultrasound or something? She took pictures to add to my medical file and as a techie, I was really impressed at that workaround and diligence. This is still an ongoing process, but gosh, I feel so much better to have a the 2nd opinion of an experienced doctor who specializes in sports medicine. Dr. Chen personally gets my struggle as he has also torn his ACL ligament from volleyball and understands the process. Besides the obvious macro suggestions with my knee, he's given me lots of lighter tips from changing up my workout regimen to lower impact alternatives. He's also a vegetarian and holy cow, as a vegan, it is so hard to find a MD who not only understands my choice of diet, but understands those challenges. He lives those values and I resonate well with that. I am incredibly grateful to have him in my corner. Pricing: Low $$$. Not cheap, but I absolutely needed peace of mind and medical advice from a professional. I didn't have coverage when I saw him but still, it was worth it for that peace of mind and tailored treatment that I wasn't getting at my HMO or when I didn't have coverage at all. Pros: --Dr. Chen. --Courteous staff. Diligent reminder calls before the appointment. Quick responses to voicemail. Cons: --Office is a bit crowded. The design and decor helps a lot though with the space, especially the plants and flowing water. --Street parking is limited, there's a large parking lot too, haven't parked there before, I usually grab street parking. TIPS! --Bring quarters for street parking. read more

Dr Chen is the most compassionate and caring doctor! He takes time to understand me -mind and body. After an MRI, I got a written explanation of my treatment options as well as an explanation from the medical asst. Dr Chen then came in and thoroughly and completely showed me and explained my problem, the treatment options and answered all of my questions. The first options were treatments that Dr Chen does. The final option was referral to an orthopedic surgeon for consult. I did injections by Dr Chen to relieve pain and physical therapy to help improve function as I couldn't walk well. Eventually I did PRP (use my own blood platelets to help repair the damage). Each time, the risks/benefits and whether insurance covered the treatment were thoroughly explained orally and in writing. I am overjoyed to report that I am now able to walk thanks to Dr Chen!!! He has helped me where other doctors were unable to. He has changed my life! There is a reason he has been voted a top doctor! He is my top doctor for sure as I am continuing to follow up with him and do accupuncture. read more

I went to Dr. Chen for PRP treatment following two L5/S1 surgeries in two years. The staff was very welcoming and attentive. My first consultation with Dr. Chen was extremely thorough and after discussing my situation he recommended PRP. He took his time explaining the procedure and answered all of my questions. He takes a very practical and wholistic approach towards health and recovery which really appeals to me. The procedure was easy and painless. I'm looking forward to recovering after the PRP and I highly recommend visiting Dr. Chen to address any health and wellness issues you may have. read more

I have nothing but high praise for Terri Lee and the extraordinary facial services provided by her and Dr Med Spa in San Mateo. I experienced the Hydra Facial and had amazing results! Ms. Lee is the consummate professional, and has been in the industry for several decades. Her product knowledge exceeds any other provider I have been to, and she is able to discuss the products I use daily - not just the ones used by the spa. She custom created a skincare regimen for me that has had long lasting benefits after leaving the office. I have been seeing Dr. Chen for acupuncture and did not know they also offered a pampering and restful environment for skincare! I was ecstatic to be introduced to Teri Lee, and think she is a fantastic addition to the already outstanding staff of healthcare profession also at Dr. Chen's office. read more

DrMedSpa deserves 5+ Stars! Dr. Chen and his staff are not only professional, they are personable. I feel very cared for and comfortable in all of my treatments (PRP and Hydra Facial) -- and more importantly, satisfied. Thank you Dr Chen and staff! I also want to call out Teri Lee with the numerous of Hydra facials I have had with her. I feel pampered and so relaxed during the facials -- my face has never looked healthier and younger. read more
