Our Story

From Humble Beginnings
Adverse diagnoses instantly change patients’ lives. In 2003, Dr. Jen-Ling James Chen, Chen Medical founder, was diagnosed with cancer and given two months to live. He experienced firsthand the frustrations associated with navigating the healthcare system during his care. Dr. Chen and his family found themselves on the receiving end of patient care — fighting for access and coordinated care while Dr. Chen fought for his life.

Fortunately, Dr. Chen fully recovered; however, his experience with today's healthcare system haunted him. His struggle to access quality, empathetic, well-coordinated care fueled his relentless determination to turn the healthcare delivery system around. This led him to create the ChenMed model — an accountable and compassionate physician-led primary ​care practice.
