Why I chose to pursue a career in healthcare?:

I entered the medical field because I wanted to be helpful and contribute to society. Even though I don't interact with patients directly, I find diagnosing patients’ medical issues very rewarding. I have been in the health care field for over 35 years, and I find my career ever more intellectually stimulating.

What I want my patients to know about me?:

I want patients to know that I was born in Vietnam and I came here when I was 12 years old.

What I do when I’m not seeing patients?:

I have lots and lots of hobbies — mostly arts and crafts, including painting.
