I liked her a lot but the office was very crowded and I felt a little out of place as the only English speaker in the waiting room. I was treated very well by everyone in the office.
Dr. Chen takes her time and I did not feel rushed. I felt very comfortable in the exam room and its hard to find a doctor you can trust.
