About Shao-Chun Rose Chang-Jackson, MD, FACOG

  • Dr. Chang-Jackson grew up in Houston. When she is not working, she enjoys running, cooking, spending as much time as she can outdoors with her husband, and chasing after their three young children. One of her favorite area locales is Hamilton Pool.

I first became interested in women’s health after my first-grade teacher developed ovarian cancer. She was later my pen pal for 10 years, detailing her struggle through her letters. Due to her strong will and her physicians’ dedication to treating her illness, she was able to survive an unheard-of amount of time with her diagnosis. I knew from that experience that I wanted to be able to treat all of my female patients with as much care and compassion as she experienced from her physicians. I believe that each patient’s healthcare needs are unique, and I strive to personalize their care. Every patient deserves to be empowered to make informed decisions about their health care. I believe strongly in evidence-based medicine and offering the full spectrum of surgical options tailored specifically to the patient. I will partner with her to arrive at the best treatment option available.

Patient Reviews

OVERALL PROVIDER RATING

Rating based on "Did the healthcare provider or doctor provide the care you expected?"

4.7out of 5
  • December 13, 2024

    Very professional and listens and answers all questions.

  • December 6, 2024

    I liked that she responded all my questions.

  • December 5, 2024

    I liked the obgyn and her nurse.

  • November 28, 2024

    That’s she was very understanding and would make small talk to distract me.

  • November 26, 2024

    Love everything no complaints

  • November 22, 2024

    Office staff were outstanding in checking in all patients that I observed. My doctor, my first visit, made me feel she cared about my concerns. I would rate her 10 stars if possible. I needed a biopsy that had not been booked; she suggested I wait until she had completed her morning appointments (about a hour) which saved me over a return 2 hour commute. At my age, this was a significant gesture on her part.
