About Me

Hello, my name is Bill Lum. I am an optometrist. An optometrist diagnoses vision problems and eye disease, prescribes eyeglasses and contact lenses, and prescribes drugs to treat eye disorders. Prior to my employment with Kaiser Permanente, I worked as an optometrist in the Air Force. I was a captain at Kincheloe Air Force Base in Michigan and also worked in private practice in San Francisco for two years.

Education and Training:	OD Degree, University of California Berkeley
Joined Kaiser Permanente:	1973

My Practice Philosophy

As a doctor of optometry, I enjoy the close one-on-one rapport with Kaiser Permanente patients and working with other healthcare workers (especially ophthalmologists) in solving patient problems and needs.

Why I Like Practicing Medicine at Kaiser Permanente?

Kaiser provides very good continuing eye care from basic visual exams up to specialty (ophthalmology) consults and support from other medical caregivers.

On Personal Note….

My favorite activities outside of work are biking, jogging and listening to classical music.

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.
