I see both children and adults as a clinical geneticist at San Francisco Medical Center, and I also co-direct the TPMG Regional Genetics Laboratory at Kaiser Permanente San Jose. I also enjoy teaching and seeing patients in Genetics at UCSF, where I am clinical associate professor in the Department of Pediatrics.
Kaiser Permanente gives me the opportunity to combine my love for both clinical sciences. My special interests include Down Syndrome, skeletal dysplasias, dysmorphology, and molecular genetics. I look forward to coming to work because my patients give me great inspiration and strength, and I work with such well-rounded, knowledgeable colleagues and support staff. In addition, I think that Genetics is a wonderful area of medicine because of the fast-paced advances and many future applications. Practicing within the Kaiser Permanente system offers many advantages, especially because of our preventative approach and philosophy.
I have four young children. My oldest son is adopted from Korea. He is followed by my daughter and fraternal twin boys. I like to play my grand piano, cook international foods, downhill ski, and garden.
