About Tina S. Chen, MD
I believe that it is a privilege to serve patients as a dermatologist, and it is a privilege I treasure highly. I became a physician because I sincerely wanted to help people. I wanted to spend my time trying my best to alleviate pain and suffering, hoping to improve the quality of life of those for whom I have the privilege of caring. I believe that taking care of patients is not only skin deep, but also includes caring for their entire physical and mental well-being. I believe in an integrated system of collaboration, working closely with other medical providers to deliver the best care possible. I participate in the Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group Climate and Planetary Health Committee because I have an interest in addressing the impact of climate change on human health. Outside of work, some of my favorite things include spending time with family and friends, listening to music, playing the piano, being outdoors and doing arts and crafts.

I would highly, highly recommend Dr Chen to anyone except she's so great she's literally impossible to get an appointment with. Even when she says she wants/needs to see me, the next available appointment wasn't until early 2027. Thankfully a wait list appointment opened up but it shouldn't be that way when the doctor WANTS to see you. There should be some availability in her (or many doctors') schedules for urgent visits.
