Background

About Meng Chen

I am a dedicated fellowship-trained physician. I am double board certified in Internal Medicine and Allergy & Immunology with cross-training in pediatric and adult Allergy & Immunology. My clinical areas of expertise are urticaria and angioedema. I also specialize in drug allergy, severe asthma, food allergy, and allergic rhinitis. One of my favorite aspects of Allergy & Immunology is the wide applicability to the general population and the ability to address the significant impact that allergies can have on a patient’s quality of life and productivity. I am fundamentally driven by a desire to help people and to provide quality care. I have trained and worked in a broad range of clinical care settings, including academia, private practice, the VA, and Kaiser. My understanding and integration of different systems processes support a skill set that optimizes patient care. My academic passion is medical education and fostering the growth of our trainees. I am particularly interested in harnessing the power of coaching to promote self-efficacy and wellness in medicine. I also bring significant clinical research and clinical trials experience that expands study start-up to manuscript preparation. My current research interests include urticaria and angioedema, as well as improving the understanding of allergic disorders in Asian American populations.
