I almost cancelled this cruise. My spinal stenosis and sciatica had flared up so badly that I couldn’t stand for more than five minutes without shooting pain down both legs. I boarded the ship using a wheelchair assistance service and felt like a burden to my family. I assumed I’d be watching the world go by from the deck chair while they explored the ports.
Dr. Chen was so compassionate. He listened to my history of failed epidurals and physical therapy. He treated my lower back and legs with such precision. After the first session, I could stand up straighter. After the third session, I walked the entire length of the ship’s promenade without stopping.
By the time we reached our final port, I walked off the ship on my own two feet and completed a walking tour of the old city. My family was in tears seeing me move like that again. I don’t know what magic Dr. Chen possesses, but it worked when nothing else did. (Robert & Family)
