Dr. Diane Chen is a dual fellowship-trained pediatric otolaryngologist and surgical oncologist of the head and neck. After growing up in Dallas, TX, she attended Rice University in Houston, TX to study Biochemistry & Cell Biology. She then completed her medical training at Baylor College of Medicine, was inducted into Alpha Omega Alpha, and stayed at Baylor to complete her otolaryngology residency.
