Gary Chen is a residency trained Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in orthopedics and sports. He is driven by the overwhelming population of recreational, amateur, semi-professional and professional athletes who have been dealing with chronic injuries despite having seen multiple healthcare providers. He believes that traditional, insurance-based physical therapy focuses solely on the site of injury and fails to recognize how other regions of the body can have a significant impact on clients’ recovery.

Gary is immensely driven by the journey of helping clients return to their specific goals. He believes that the process, though it may be daunting at first, holds great value in restoring client’s ability to live their day-to-day lives completely pain-free. Moreover, he stresses not only the physical, but also the mental and emotional path to playing and participating in their respective sports and activities without worry or anxiety.

Outside of the clinic, Gary remains active through playing recreational league basketball, and playing the occasional round of golf on the weekends. He also values spending time with his fiancé: exploring coffee shops in Orange County, playing pickleball together, and indulging in their favorite Korean, Japanese, and Italian restaurants.
