The reviews listed below were collected independently of Boulder Centre for Orthopedics and Spine through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
Dr Chen was excellent. He explained what he saw in my X-rays and gave me recommendations about what might come next to make me feel better. We decided to give shots into myn hips and we did that. He is so gentle and didn’t hurt me a bit. Now we wait to see how much my discomfort is relieved. I would highly recommend him.
