I tried to like Dr Quinn Chen twice in the last year because of the many online reviews listing her as "kind" but she was just terrible. During my first appointment, she only spent 10 minutes with me asking me general background questions. She didn't smile, look me in the eye or shake my hand when she came into my room. She seemed scatter brained and socially awkward not making eye contact, mumbling softly and getting frustrated when i asked her to repeat herself because I couldnt hear her in the exam room. During my second appointment, she prescribed me a medication that my last doctor had already prescribed which I stopped using because of irritation and other side effects. When I told her this and asked for an alternative, she snapped at me and said "then there's nothing I can do for you." I was stunned by the remark and then asked about another medication that I had read about online. She responded to this by saying "I'm a doctor, you're not, I know what's good for you, you think you do, but you don't". Then she rolled her eyes at me. No doctor has ever ROLLED HER EYES at me and it made me feel stupid and embarassed. But I had to stick up for my health. I told her I didn't need the prescription anymore. Then she muttered "unbelievable" under her breath and told me to have a nice day while angrily scribbling. I wouldn't recommend her unless you want a doctor that rolls her eyes at your concerns. I personally will not be going to her again.

I recommend her. Had a procedure and she was very good and quick which is a good thing.
2I recommend her. Had a procedure and she was very good and quick which is a good thing.
Pros: fast and knows what she is doing
Debora is very knowlegeable and was very helpful in understanding the pregnancy stages. She is kind and listens to patients and understands the emotional needs of women very well.
4Dr. Quinn-Chen is an excellent OB/GYN in the Bay Area. I was a patient of hers for a few years and she is gentle, caring, and a great listener. Great for annual checkups--I'm sure she would be excellent as your OB provider as well. Office staff is sweet, parking not so great.

I have found Dr. Quinn Chen to be straight-forward, well informed and willing to answer any and all questions. The office staff in Burlingame, however, is about the least competent and most rude I've ever encountered anywhere. It would be a shame for her to lose patients because of this.

Pros: Experienced physicians/surgeon
Cons: Office staff
The receptionist Rosa is unbelievably rude. Once you finally get to see Dr. Quinn Chen, she is wonderful, but I highly recommend that they change the front office staff ASAP or I won't go there anymore.

I LOVE Dr. Quinn-Chen and would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for an OB/GYN.

Dr. Quinn-Chen is compassionate and understanding, and does an excellent job of answering questions and offering alternatives. Her readiness to explain all aspects of my medical care is very much appreciated. It is a long wait to see her (over an hour), but once she arrives it is a relief to have a doctor that does not rush through an appointment.

Pros: Compassionate, Explains clearly, Listens well
Cons: Long wait time, Crowded waiting room
Dr. Quinn-Chin is very nice and a good doctor, but see her at a different office. The waiting time is unbelieveable. 1 hour at least. Worse than that is the office staff. Rude receptionists, and nurses. I was always treated like a child. I'm a nurse myself and have left this place to find a kinder office for my not so fun visits.
