*Updated In response to the owner's reply: I would like to clarify a few points. I did not post this review to "bad mouth" a business, nor is this a fake or anonymous account. I posted from my personal account using my real name because I am describing a genuine experience that I had. The facts are simple: I called your office to inquire about services for myself. I live approximately 30 minutes away, saw your positive reviews, and was interested in learning more about your practice. Initially, I asked how your office handles RCM, which is a standard question I ask anytime I speak with a Healthcare provider due to the nature of my job. Unfortunately, the interaction was extremely unprofessional. During the course of my calls, I was disconnected three separate times and was unable to have a productive conversation about my needs. The overall experience was discourteous and left a very negative impression. To be clear, I am not a patient and therefore cannot speak to the quality of the clinical services your practice provides. However, I can accurately describe my experience interacting with your staff, and that experience was disappointing enough that I chose to share it. My review reflects my honest experience as a prospective patient. I hope this feedback is taken constructively and used as an opportunity to improve future interactions with potential clients. Original Post: Staff was incredibly rude.

My husband and I visted Chen eye center. The best eye center. Waiting time was for few minutes only. Doctor chen was really professional, and listened to all my concerns, answered all questions. Carmen was professional, friendly, and helpful. I Highly recommend this eye center for all your vision needs. Thank you so much.
Shirley Young M.D. is my primary doctor told by her for me see for my left eye doctor with Mr. Willie Chen eye doctor was in officially October 2025 but I do not remember the date for the first visit in 2025 was told by my primary doctor either Ms or Mrs. Young
Came here for a second opinion after another clinic suggested expensive treatment. The doctor here recommended starting with simple medication first and monitoring the condition. That honesty really stood out. It felt like genuine care instead of unnecessary pressure to spend more.
The Taiwanese owner Dr. Chen does a wonderful job and everything but the front lady at the desk does not do her job great. This past following week for the follow up for my eye check up… when I went to check and see if I had my eye drop at my local Publix grocery store in Duluth, Buford highway pharmacy they said I only had one medicine which was from Dr. Shirley Young but that was it. Was picked up the following was on Friday, June 13, 2025 after work that evening just to pick up my med. First image: Dr. Shirley Young Second image: Dr. Chen (Owner) The second image picture was from before… it has no more liquid to drop my eye drops for my left eye so I’d stop using the drops because I have no more left eye so I stopped dropping in my left eye!
