I had a cancerous skin growth on my ear and was referred to her for a Mohs procedure to remove it. She was amazing, personable, and very efficient. I felt confident in spite of my initial nervousness. I experienced a lot of pain for a few days afterward, and she responded to my request for pain meds immediately. If you require this procedure, Dr. Chen is a top notch choice. Once again, Mercy Medical has provided the best care for me.

This provider had the most calming attitude. From the initial painless injection I felt she cared and was going to be a partner in my success for a painless and positive procedure. Dr Chen was positive during the interaction and ask multiple times if I was in pain or could feel anything. Very pro patient.
