Honestly, I believe I was seen within 15 minutes of my appointment but I don't know. What I do know is that Dr. Chen takes the appropriate time with the patient so if she were to run late and I would seen late I would be totally okay with that because scheduling is a system problem, not a Dr. Chen problem. She is amazing and helps me a great deal. I'm very thankful for her.
