My 4 year old has, unfortunately, required some advanced dental procedures, but she has been a God send. We drive an hour one way to see her because she’s that phenomenal with our children.

I have been taking my children to Dr Chen for over 8 years and I never had any issue with Dr Chen and her Staff I highly recommend to anyone Kevin PainterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Chen is the absolute best at what she does. We have been bringing our 3 kids to her for years now and have always had the best experience. Our youngest was only 4 years old and needed a filling. She went back to the treatment room totally on her own, Dr. Chen used nitrous oxide “laughing gas” and she did great. No crying, no fear, Dr. Chen totally put her at ease. 10/10 would highly recommend. Steve LiscumTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was sad when my kids “graduated” out of Dr Chen’s practice. From the very beginning, Dr Chen and staff treated both of my boys with kindness and treated my wife and I with respect. We’ve referred many family and friends to the practice. Ryan WerkmeisterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
