Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I did a very expensive stem cell procedure with him and it didn't work at all and was very painful. He doesn't seem to know what he is doing and took me for alot of money.

I have no complaints about Dr. Halland! Everything was excellent! My knees improved 100% since my visits and I am ready to run a marathon! Besides the treatment, the office is nice modern and the staff is great.

The doctor is very competent and professional. My knee has had great improvements since my treatments, no more pain or swelling and I am walking much better. The staff is very helpful and the office is very pleasant and clean. I have recommended Dr. Halland to friends experiencing joint pain and will continue to do so in the future!

I was referred to the Vein Institute and Pain Centers of America by an administrative assistant at my former pain management doctors office. When i first came to the office it was for my back pain and Dr. Halland Chen took care of me and gave me epidural injections. After that my back felt very good and i had instant pain relief.

The office is very polite and cheerful and they made the appointments to book easy. Dr. Halland really understood what was going on with my hair and solved the problem of my thinning hair. I had seen 3 doctors prior and they were unable to fix my alopecia areata, but Dr. Halland was able to find a solution to help my hair my hair come back in just a short period of time, I was seeing results. I did a combo of PRP and Acell. I highly recommend to anyone seeking hair growth...

Great doctor! Has helped me out with arthritis joint problems that no one else has been able to help with. All the other doctors wanted to replace my knees and ankle. His procedure took about 2.5 hours start to finish. After a year of healing with the Stem cell treatment I am mostly pain free and walking without a cane. (When I first saw him I was on crutches, the arthritis was so bad!) His office staff are phenomenal as well, always helpful and accommodating. I fly up from Florida...

Staff is very efficient and always welcoming. Less pain in my knees, there much more comfortable and easier to walk. The injections have helped me stand on my feet for longer periods of time without having to sit. Very appreciative!

When I was referred by someone and I came to see Dr. Halland, he immediately diagnosed the problem. I started feeling better after two treatments, my pain was gone and after my fifth treatment I don't have anymore pain. I really appreciate Dr. Halland. He is an amazing doctor. The staff is very nice and helpful, the office is immaculate. Everything is perfect.

Everything was really good with Dr. Halland and the office. The appointments are on time, the call backs are on time, everything is simple with the office. The treatments helped a lot, I can jog now whereas before I could not run. I'm not 100% there but it is a start, I look forward to more treatments and more improvement thanks to Dr. Halland.

I initially came to Dr. Halland to treat my knee pain. But, due to Dr. Halland's expertise, he was able to treat not only my knees but also my leg pain. He noticed my legs were swollen and asked me several questions about my legs and we found out I had problems with my veins and circulation. Now, after my vein treatments, I can see my legs are less swollen, legs are more flexible, and I have more agility and strength in my legs. I am able to walk longer distance without p...

The injections were easy and painless and after all my treatments, my pain is almost gone. The pain I had felt before I received the injection series is gone. I am very, very please with my treatment with Dr. Halland. On top of it all, the staff is great and courteous and there is little to no wait time. Everything is very simple with the office and everything seems to run smoothly.

Good experience with Dr. Halland. Clean office, staff is great, everything is handled on time and very well. Everyone in the office always tries to help me. The doctor always takes the time to explain things with me and I never feel rushed or hurried out. My knees have improved by at least 70% from when I first came to Dr. Halland. I am very happy with my treatment.

Ever since the treatment I've been moving much better and more efficiently at the job, as I do a lot of moving and getting up and down. My knees are much more comfortable and the pain is gone. Dr. Halland is great and so is his staff, the environment is amazing and I'm very comfortable when I come here.
