Dr. Chen is friendly, personable, concerned, knowledgeable....I could go on and on. She always takes her time addressing all my questions and it's great to find a doctor in TX who doesn't just focus 100% on conventional medicine, but also considers natural remedies (if not at least to a degree). I appreciate that as I always try to keep a well rounded view and explore all options.

This might be long, but it's hard to concisely express my appreciation for Dr. O'Connell! The…read moreTL;DR, though, is that he's a fantastic doctor regardless of specialty, but his care and compassion means even more when he is helping women deal with such personal and often dismissed pelvic conditions. If you have any concerns about him being a man and therefore not having personally experienced what you are, please don't let that stop you from seeing him! He has been far more empathetic and supportive than any female doctor I've seen in the past, never dismissing any of my symptoms or concerns and trusting that I know my body. I first saw him 9 years ago, after my regular gynecologist had done multiple ablation surgeries for my endometriosis and wasn't sure what to do next. Most OBGYNs are very limited in their endometriosis knowledge and my deep-infiltrating, stage 4 endometriosis was more complex than most can effectively treat. I found Dr. O'Connell through the Nancy's Nook Facebook group about 6 months after my gynecologist realized he couldn't help me any more. My husband and I left that first appointment absolutely blown away by Dr. O'Connell's compassion and dedication - I think he spent 2 hours with us that first time, ensuring all our questions were answered and giving us hope for the first time in a long time. As others said, he maybe late to your appointment, but I don't begrudge him that because I know how much time he is willing to give patients. I just never schedule anything else when I have an appointment with him so that I'm not rushed, in case he is running behind. I've had 2 surgeries with him, the last being 7 years ago, and he completely changed my life. I love that he is open to other modalities/treatments that are not mainstream but may help (like acupuncture/TCM, supplements, LDN). So many doctors think they have all the answers and dismiss anything they didn't learn in med school, and I've personally found those doctors to be less effective even if I'm not pursuing alternative treatments. They tend to not keep up on emerging research (because their egos/pride seem to keep them thinking they already know everything they need to know), but Dr. O'Connell is the opposite of that. It's that pursuit of knowledge that makes him such a good doctor and able to provide effective treatment. It took me more than 15 years of suffering to get a diagnosis and find Dr. O'Connell, and I've told so many women about Dr. O'Connell in hopes that they can find relief much sooner than I did. There's no cure for endometriosis and he doesn't promise one, but he will absolutely be in your corner helping you take back your life.

I had stop going to him because I moved, but I really do think he is one of the best out there. I won't get into much detail here except that I had a medical issue that an ER (not Dallas Medical Center) had looked at but told me was not a big deal. I went to Dr. Braun about a week after that for a routine checkup. He identified the issue immediately and told me that it was possibly serious, sent me for a diagnostic ultrasound that day, and conducted my surgery that weekend. I am forever grateful to him. He took me seriously from day 1, which is something that I think many doctors struggle with. I really believe that Dr. Braun saved my life.

I came to Dr. Walker's office for a somewhat medical emergency. I sat in the waiting room for 1 hour which was frustrating but I let it go. Finally getting to the room I waited on the doctor another 25 minutes. I get doctors are busy and things happen. Dr. Walker's bedside manner is not the best. She spoke to me in a very condescending way. She was only in the room for all 5 minutes and rushed out immediately. Her team was supposed to call in a prescription for me following this appointment. I called the office, emailed, and didn't receive the prescription until two weeks after my appointment. This office lacks COMMUNICATION and KINDNESS. I think Dr. Walker is more focused on her "cosmetic surgeries" as opposed to her regular OBGYN clinic. I highly suggest you avoid it at all costs this has been a nightmare for me.

I agreed to see one of the nurse practitioners and paid the higher fee for my first visit. She was not able to advise me on anything during that visit as she didn't have my bloodwork results yet. I have not been able to communicate with her at all about prescriptions since having my bloodwork run. The doctors do not communicate with patients through clinic's messaging system, unlike many other clinics. Messages are only responded to by the assistants. After much back and forth due to this, it has been almost two months without one of my agreed upon prescriptions being filled. One of my other prescriptions was incorrectly filled. After multiple calls and messages with assistants that were just following a script, the office manager called and insisted that it had been filled correctly and told me to go to CVS to handle it with them. The CVS pharmacist showed me how it was sent in and explained how it was done incorrectly. She tried to call the clinic but only only got the AI system. I have made more calls and sent messages since then. Today the office manager again called and insisted that the prescription was filled correctly, complete with a bad attitude as usual. She then told me I'm being fired as a patient. This is how they deal with their incompetence. This the worst run clinic I have ever dealt with.
