Two total knee replacements and shoulder and neck issues. Dr Stephen Kim,and Josh took care of both my knees. They along with their staff were always compassionate kind and caring. I refer them to all my patients. Dr Grimm is my neck guy and although I do not need surgery at this time he gave me lots of options to alleviate my pain. Thumbs 👍 Thank you for all you do

Dr. Chen is a smart, energetic, and kind practitioner, an expert in the care of shoulders. I should know considering he treated my wife’s first rotator cuff injury over 20 years ago and is now carefully managing my recovery from a complex clavicle fracture. Look no further if you have a shoulder issue.
