When patients come to see me, I believe in the utmost importance of taking the time to sit down with them and listen closely to their concerns. I strive to tailor treatment plans to the individual, whether that entails a surgical procedure or a more conservative approach. It is my strong belief there is no “one size fits all” approach when it comes to providing the best care for a patient.
Dr. Chin’s clinical interests include the treatment of athletic injuries, trauma, and chronic conditions of the foot, ankle, and knee.
In his free time, Dr. Chin enjoys mountain biking, skiing, and spending time with his wife, daughter, and chocolate lab Coco.
