    There weren't really discussions about treatment or options at this visit, that is why there are the 4 ratings. Dr. Chen has been my doctor for a long time and I always feel like he knows my issues and cares about my treatment.
  • Apr, 13 2024
    It was a challenge to try and understand Dr. Chen so one has to listen very closely to what he is trying to explain.
  • Apr, 13 2024
    Dr. Chen gave a clear and concise explanation of my options and listened to my concerns and adjusted my meds accordingly. After talking to Dr. Chen, I felt confident in my plan of care and the parameters for returning emergently.

  • Nov, 28 2023
    Dr. Chen is very concerned about my continued good health and was very easy to talk to.
  • Nov, 17 2023
    The report after the visit indicates a lot of things he did not do
  • Nov, 16 2023
    The doctor did nothing to discuss prevention, root causes or diet, nutrition. These are so many of the problems that need addressing when dealing with heart conditions, no?? It was extremely disheartening. We're supposed to be able to come to the experts and have them help us heal, and prevent further disease. None of this was discussed, and when we tried to, there was no offering or information given.
  • Nov, 10 2023
    He didn't want to have anything to do with here and now recovery. My hands are tied by your decision to say I don't qualify for disability. I am disturbed about my Drs pore chose to continue to help me. I can't work yet... I have no way to make it to the next level of recovery.
  • Nov, 8 2023
    Dr. Peter Chen is really good and polite I like him.
  • Nov, 3 2023
    He reported on my test. Refilled a prescription. Made a follow up appointment.
  • Nov, 2 2023
    I've always liked Dr. Chen, but I had a terrifying experience at the ER with new onset atrial fibrillation with RVR, and multimodal ectopic beats, which poses significant risk to Mt overall health (as well as my life...). He demonstrated no compassion, provided minimal information & was clearly concerned about doing the least amount required to get to his next patient. I don't blame him, I'm experiencing the same thing with other providers. They're overburdened, pressured, & burning out rapidly...
  • Oct, 30 2023
    Dr Chen knows all about my condition, he was my doctor when I had my heart attack, and he keeps up with my meds and treatments
  • Oct, 23 2023
    *Dr. Chem was a little difficult to understand with his mask on.
  • Oct, 20 2023
    Best facility and staff Dr. Peter Chen all make you feel like you matter.
  • Oct, 20 2023
    ..language was a problem..combined with provider wearing a mask during exam...
  • Oct, 17 2023
    I like Dr Chin very much. He is an excellent Doctor and I would recommend him to anyone in need of a good heart doctor.
  • Sep, 28 2023
    Dr Chad always explains things and answers any questions I ask.
  • Sep, 28 2023
    Rushed, too in a hurry to take seriously any of my concerns. Felt he was condescending at times. Not open to exploring or explaining my condition.
