About me

I was born in Northern California after my parents emigrated from Taiwan. I received my medical degree from Rutgers Medical School in New Jersey and then went to New York Medical College for my internship and residency, where I served as chief resident in orthopaedic surgery. After completing a fellowship in hand surgery at New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital, my family and I moved to Hawaii. Here, we love island life, enjoy outdoor activities, and surround ourselves with the wonderful people of these Islands.

About my practice

I enjoy helping others and being involved in the sciences, especially the science of the human body. This led me to become a doctor. Orthopaedic surgery is the ideal specialty for me, as it combines musculoskeletal medicine with the opportunity to help people. My greatest satisfaction is seeing my patients improve and get back to their work, physical activity, or whatever it is that they enjoy doing. Every patient deserves to be treated as if they were a family member. That means that a provider should not only give the appropriate and best treatment possible, but also take into consideration the patient's overall health, concerns, beliefs, desires, and expectations. The Hawaii Permanente Medical Group allows me to practice medicine as I believe it should be practiced. Here, physicians have the resources to provide a wide range of treatments, time to really get to know their patients, and a great team of professionals and staff. I always enjoy meeting my patients. There’s a huge diversity of people out there with their own personalities, abilities, jobs, interests, and viewpoints. It’s a pleasure to get to know them as individuals and to provide them whatever help I can. To stay current in my field, I read professional newsletters and journals, attend medical conferences, and participate in continuing medical education programs. I’m also a member of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery and the American Society for Surgery of the Hand.

How I thrive

When I’m not working, I spend quality family time with my wife and son. I keep in good shape by bicycling, fencing, golfing, and playing tennis.

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:

  1. accessible exam rooms and medical equipment;
  2. 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
  3. 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.

Information about a practitioner is provided to us by the practitioner or is obtained as part of the credentialing process.
