About me
Welcome! I'm so glad you found your way here. I hope this page helps you get a sense of who I am and how I approach member care — my goal is always to make sure you feel heard, respected, and supported throughout your health journey.
Biography
I was born in Vietnam and came to Los Angeles as an infant with my family. Although my spoken Vietnamese is choppy, I understand the language well and appreciate the cultural richness it brings to my life and my work. I come from a large family and now have a growing family of my own, which constantly reminds me of the importance of health, connection, and community. I’ve been with Kaiser Permanente since 2008, and over the years, I’ve found tremendous meaning in the relationships I’ve built with members and colleagues. I'm active in physician-led efforts that promote plant-based nutrition and support women in medicine. I also volunteer with the Special Olympics and have had the privilege of giving talks at the medical center on exercise, lifestyle, and wellness — topics I care deeply about and include in my daily practice.
About my practice
I believe that movement is medicine and that staying active is one of the best ways to maintain independence and long-term well-being. As a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician, I work with people of all backgrounds and abilities to diagnose musculoskeletal conditions, help manage pain, and support overall function. My approach is grounded in partnership, education, and seeing the whole person. I often work as part of a team—including in our Spine Center, where a physical therapist and I team up to get to the root of back issues and improve posture and movement. I also perform diagnostic studies such as electromyography and nerve conduction studies to better understand nerve and muscle conditions. Across all of my work, my goal is to remove barriers and help people move through life with greater ease and quality.
How I thrive
Outside of work, I strive to live the kind of balanced, intentional life I encourage in members. I love reading and learning, cooking plant-based meals, and spending time in the garden. I play the ukulele, rollerblade, and make it a point to get good sleep every night. With my family, I enjoy camping, gym dates, and playing board games together. Thriving, for me, means aligning everyday choices with what matters most, and making space for joy along the way.
