John Chen, Pharm.D., Ph.D., O.M.D., L.Ac.

"Dr. Chen is the best in his field."

"very knowledgeable, good at presenting information"

"He was excellent with knowledge of both the herbs and drugs and mechanisms and clinical experience. Kept it fresh and interesting even though he has taught the material many times, I appreciated his perspective about how the research itself is changing over time, and that in Asia, the combination especially of tonic herbs with chemo is not "experimental" but is standard of care."

"I found Dr. Chen to be absolutely amazing and knowledgeable. I am in Toronto Canada, the speakers I have heard in our local community only on the TCM side and never on the actual drug interaction and integration. I found Dr. Chen to be a world of knowledge."

"I need an herbal consult with him! Dr. Chen is the only person I'd trust given his knowledge of western pharmacology and chinese herbs."

"Dr. Chen is very knowledgeable and generous with his information. You can see that he has done much research on this subject."

"John Chen is doing some of the best integrative work and is a bridge builder between eastern and western medicine. His lecturing is clear and very useful. It is already changing how I will think about effectively using herbs for various patients I have. Thank you so much!"

"Dr. Chen continued to give us a general view that is useful for clinicians but still gave us the detailed research or mechanics as to why something worked. I loved the balance of both. Thank You!"

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I love the seminars of you and Dr. Chang. Unfortunatly I can not get Evergreen Herbs and the Collection Formulas in Germany yet. Your pharmacological book is translated to german and the formula book will soon be too. So we need the herbs here too. Best regards Bianca Orth

I didn't think it was as thorough, although it was obvious to me that John Chen is a wealth of information. This time was just great. I was a bit late in my 'attendance', but quickly went over the notes and it was easy to catch up for the rest of the seminar. A long one! As an ND, as well as an LAc, I especially appreciate the drug-herbs interaction talks and see the value of them as an update yearly. Much appreciated, again, thank you!"

Dr. John Chen is always clear, well informed, and able to deliver complex information in an acceptable manor. I always enjoy his lecture. In my previous e-mail I mentioned 'those who can, do; those who can't, teach.' One reason I'm so impressed and proud of Lotus and glad to be associated with y'all is because of your and John and Alex and Eric's (and everyone associated with you) determination to be sure that the models that are placed before our practitioners are successful and accomplished practitioners who do a LOT of good by helping a LOT of people to get well and stay well. I've never seen an example of 'those who can't, teach' at a Lotus Seminar, and I'm thrilled that this is the case. You can quote me on this!! Love, Laraine
