My Biography
I was born in Taipei and grew up in California. I received my undergraduate degree from Stanford University in 1987. I completed my medical school at the University Of Cincinnati School Of Medicine and finished my residency at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. I completed a fellowship in Thoracic Radiology from the University of Maryland Medical Center and in Interventional Radiology from the Medical University of South Carolina.
I've been a Kaiser physician since 2000. I received the Hero Award for distinguished patient care three times, in March 2002, November 2004 and in October 2008. I have also been active in the teaching programs, being a frequent speaker for the medicine residency program and occasionally a guest speaker for other departments.
I perform the full spectrum of diagnostic and interventional procedures. In addition to imaging modalities such as CT, ultrasound, and MRI, etc., I also specializes in advanced interventional techniques such as biopsies, angiography, and embolizations, among others. I perform around a thousand such procedures in a typical year.
My Interests
When not busy working, I enjoy spending time with my wife and my two childeren (a son and a daughter). When I had free time, my hobbies included going to dinner, catching a movie, jogging, playing tennis, golf, and surfing the internet.

An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
