Patient Reviews
Jul 26, 2025
The DTLA office helped me with a bad wrist fracture. The PA Gary explained the X ray, and we video-conferenced Dr. Chen when I had more questions. Doctor Gary Chen Explained the option I had with Surgery vs without. I play classical guitar so I need my wrist to work. Felt better with Cast.
