About me
Diversity has always played a big role in my life. I'm ethnically Chinese but was born in and spent the early part of my life in Manila, Philippines. My family and I moved to the East Coast when I was a teenager. I was also fortunate enough to spend a wonderful year in Spain studying history and art. While attending medical school in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, I met my husband, and we spent the next 20 years there happily training and working. His work in marine biology brought us to Hawaii in 2006. We instantly fell in love with the beautiful ocean, delightful weather, and international culture.
About my practice
As a general internist and primary care physician, I enjoy the individual relationships I have with my patients. My philosophy of care is strongly rooted in prevention and self-care. I feel that my role is to be a partner to my patients, especially those with chronic diseases, as they manage their conditions in their everyday lives. Being a primary care doctor allows me to make an impact on society by making a difference in the life and health of one person at a time.
As a preventive medicine and public health doctor, I also enjoy making an impact in the lives and health of populations. My work with state health departments and government programs has allowed me to influence the quality of care for many people. I'm excited to be involved in continuously developing more effective ways to care for our QUEST and Medicare members, as well as all our members with chronic conditions.
How I thrive
Outside of work, I enjoy yoga, long walks on the beach and mountain hikes, farmers markets and sustainable local farm-to-table meals, art museums, good books, and creative writing. My husband and I love spending time together, no matter what we end up doing. We stay connected with family, spend time with friends, and are active in our church community. I believe that to thrive is to live in balance. According to an Indian proverb: “Everyone is a house with four rooms - physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time, but unless we go into every room every day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person.”
With balance comes perspective, which keeps me grateful for the gift of each day, the blessings of loved ones, the enjoyment of simple pleasures, the beauty of our surroundings, the privilege of work, and the acceptance of our limitations.

Accommodations for Individuals with Disabilities
Kaiser Permanente is committed to providing accessible facilities, services, and programs for all members, visitors and individuals with disabilities. In compliance with federal and state laws that prohibit discrimination based on disability, Kaiser Permanente provides:
- accessible exam rooms and medical equipment;
- free auxiliary aids and services to ensure effective communication with individuals with hearing, vision, cognitive, and/or communication-related disabilities, including qualified sign language interpreter services and informational materials in alternative formats (large print, audio tape/CDs, accessible PDFs or Microsoft Word documents, electronic texts/disks/CD-ROMS, and Braille); and
- access to service animals, except where the animal poses a significant health or safety risk(s) to others.
For more information about access to a specific facility or provider, or if you believe that Kaiser Permanente has failed to provide appropriate access or services or otherwise discriminated on the basis of a disability, please contact Member Services toll-free 1-800-966-5955 or TTY 711, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. or Saturday, 8 a.m. – noon. You may also contact or file a grievance with the Kaiser Permanente Civil Rights Coordinator in person, by mail, fax or email at: 711 Kapiolani Blvd, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813, civil-rights-coordinator@kp.org, or toll-free 1-800-966-5955, TTY 711.
The availability and use of the Kaiser Permanente grievance procedure does not prevent a person from filing a complaint of discrimination on the basis of disability with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights or the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission.
Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business and uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.
