About me
I was born in Northeast China and came to the U.S. when I was in my 20s. (At present, I have spent longer in the U.S. than in China). I have traveled all over the country: I finished my graduate degree in Texas, had my first year of residency at the University of Pennsylvania, and spent the second and third years of my residency in the Northwest. I have lived in the Northwest for more than 10 years. Since both my parents are physicians - my father is a urologist and my mom is a pathologist - I was exposed to medicine since early childhood. I am happily married with a beautiful daughter and love working for the community. I am an active participant and a board member of South Sound Women in Medicine.
About my practice
I was very inspired by the patient care that I saw during my residency and chose to work here immediately after completing it. I believe that medicine is a combination of art and science. As a physician, I work to build solid relationships with my patients and make decisions jointly with them. I love all age groups and especially enjoy working with whole families. Most of all, I love to see my patients with a big smile and happy families of their own. It gives me great pleasure to see my patients enjoying their lives.
How I thrive
I have many hobbies, including basketball, interior design, guitar, photography, and writing. I spend time outside of work playing with my daughters. I greatly value keeping myself mentally and physically well. For me, laughter and love are the keys to health.

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
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.
