Words cannot express how much I appreciate Dr. Ryan Chen and his team. He was the one who explained my initial breast cancer diagnosis to me, he referred me to my wonderful oncologist and placed my port for chemotherapy. When my treatment was finished, he was the one who performed my lumpectomy and lymph node removal surgery, and he did such an amazing job! He is so nice and kind and thoroughly explained everything prior to both of my surgeries, putting me at ease. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Chen, he is the best!!!

My gall bladder surgery was unexpected which brought a lot of anxiety of the unknown and next steps. I had the surgery same day I went to the ER. After meeting Dr. Chen for the first time, he listened to me explained the process, expectations, next steps and recovery. He shared with me all these information in layman's language that I was able to digest what he's saying. After the surgery, he checked on me both days, and making sure to address any questions I may have, and how I'm feeling. He's empathetic, calm and warm. I didn't feel he's rushed during his visits which totally made me more at ease. I also had a follow-up appointment with me, again he listened, asked questions and making sure I am ok. Thank you Dr. Chen for making such a surreal experience as normal as you can help it. Happy Holidays!!!

The surgery seemed to go very well. I was in no pain after the surgery and I did not need Oxocodone or Tylenol. They shaved very little of my hair and the internal stitches and skin glue were nice to see, instead of a major hair shave and large bandage. Dr. Robertson was personal and confident performing the surgery. The surgical staff, support nurses and office personnel were very attentive and friendly, making for a very good experience. Would have liked the surgical record to have been more accurate in the tumor location and better instructions for follow-up care to my wife and I. Overall, I was very pleased with this surgical experience on my head, which was somewhat concerning.

Dr. Skeehan is a great listener and communicates well at the patient’s level. I had complete confidence in his surgical skills and he proved me right. I was in good hands, that’s for sure. Also, what I appreciated was that it was a mutual agreement between us to proceed with it. Dr. Skeehan recommended it and I agreed. I’m not a fan of surgery but it was long overdue and I feel so much better. My digestion is at its best now. I want Dr. Skeehan to know he’s appreciated. The surgery was performed at the West Coast Surgery Center in El Dorado Hills. Very impressive center with great staff and well equipped for varied surgeries. I highly recommend Dr. Skeehan and Sierra Pacific Surgical.

I just had a bilateral direct/indirect hernia repair done by Dr. Skeehan via the Da Vinci robot. This was the first surgery I have ever had. I'm 53/male. I was scared to death!!! Dr. Skeehan, my anesthesiologist and the nurses helped put my mind at ease. Everything went very smoothly. No problems at all. I just have 3 small "pea sized" incisions on my belly. The pain was minimal. I did not have to use any prescription painkillers. I used over-the-counter ibuprofen for 1 day!! For those of you afraid of having surgery, there is no need to be scared. I give Dr. Skeehan a 10/10. My surgery was 3 days ago, and I feel great! If I ever have to have another surgery I will request Dr. Skeehan. He is a pro!!!

I recently did a review where I expressed frustration with Dr. Chen. I would like to retract and express that Dr. Chen did do great work. I was frustrated with how hard it was to get ahold of the office for a response yes. But remembering that Dr. Chen is only 1 person, and is a very highly sought after surgeon. He did make a point to contact me directly and talk thoroughly with me about the surgery and recovery. I am very appreciative for that, and would recommend him to anyone. Sorry about my not so great review the other day about my experience. Dr. Chen definitely went out of his way to make me feel heard and cared for. Thank you.

This was my first experience with a surgical process. The initial consult was useful to review most of what to expect leading up to, and during, the procedure. I did have a couple of questions regarding my experiences after the procedure (eg. bruising; pains) that I wonder whether they might have been mentioned as part of the consult, it they weren’t significant. Post surgery follow up included a call from the doctor’s office two days after the procedure, not the following day (not sure if that’s “sop” or not). I didn’t have my post op meeting with the doctor until the fourth week, which I thought to be too far out, but I had no real issues so it worked out okay. There was a problem with the actual surgery day. I was supposed to get a call from the hospital team three days prior to the surgery day. That didn’t happen. Fortunately I went to the hospital on a Saturday to see if they had any information, and after a variety of calls and texts throughout the day, finally got confirmation that the surgery would/could happen. If I hadn’t gone in on my own to see what was wrong, I would have shown up on my day expecting the operation, only to find out that I wasn’t properly prepared for the surgery (antiseptic cleaning) and that the hospital didn’t have me on the schedule. There was some miscommunication that created this problem, whether by the doctor’s office, the hospital surgery unit, or both. I was never told the nature of the miscommunication. I’d also note that I had what I perceived to be a problem of being released too early (ie. I had no recollection of being released from the hospital). This would be a potential issue with the hospital’s recovery process, not the doctor, but thought I’d mention it. The miscommunication and resulting scheduling issues noted above notwithstanding, the procedure itself went well and the Dr Skeehan responded appropriately when it became evident that additional time would be necessary to take it to completion. As a result, I’d be confident utilizing Dr Skeehan in the future were I to need the type of surgical services that he provides!

I must admit that I was nervous going into surgery due to past bad experiences, but I'm so thrilled to say that Dr Skeehan has replaced those bad memories with positive ones. Even with my migraine on the day of surgery, everyone went out of their way to make sure I was treated with care, respect, and that I was comfortable. My partial thyroidectomy went great, I can swallow again, and I would gladly recommend Dr Skeehan to my closest friends and family. Thank you for making surgery feel like a good thing!

I found everyone at this office to be great from scheduling, to check out to helping me with getting all my records to the office and answering all my questions before my appointment. I LOVED Dr. David Skeehan! He is a very sharp doctor, great personality, listens and gave me some answers to try to help me get further testing so he could figure out what direction we head in after. I wish everyone doctor was like him! If I have to have surgery (which I’ve had 10 so far) I would not hesitate to have him do it.
