Contact:
I am excited to join the excellent group of pulmonary and critical care physicians at WWMG. I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience delivering high-quality care for a wide range of general pulmonary conditions, including shortness of breath, asthma, COPD, interstitial lung diseases, lung nodules, pleural effusions, pulmonary infections, and more. I also help patients who were recently hospitalized with complex respiratory illnesses transition back to the outpatient setting.
I believe that there can often be more than one right way to manage the patient’s condition, and that the patient’s voice is an important part of the shared medical decision-making process. I am committed to offering a high-quality, evidence-based treatment approach that is also tailored to each patient’s unique needs and concerns.
I am fluent in both English and Korean, and am happy to see patients in their preferred language whenever possible.
Outside of the hospital, I enjoy playing piano, violin, and guitar, listening to classical music, running, and photography.
