Family Medicine
OVERVIEW
A patient once asked me if I was a good doctor. Nonplussed, I answered that my MOTHER thought I was. Talking about myself is not easy - self-effacements and understatement are values much emphasized in my background.
I was born in (then colonial) Malaya of Chinese ancestry. I was educated in an American missionary school with an English curriculum and entered medical school at The University of Malaya, graduating in the top quartile of my class. I moved to the United States in 1952 and now live in Claremont with my husband Michael, my stepdaughter Jessica, and a Golden Retriever.
My Family Practice:
At first I could not decide, but later I found that it picked me. I enjoy both the arts and science, and Family Practice is a challenging mix of both. I have often called it the liberal arts within the faculty of medicine. It has given me the balanced lifestyle and I enjoy the diversity within the scope of family medicine. I am multi-lingual, fluent in English, Malay and Chinese(Cantonese, Hokkien and Teochew dialects).
What I enjoy:
* Educating patients - making the science understandable and applying it to the uncertainties of real life and real people.
* Laser applications for skin health - hair removal, vein treatments, skin rejuvenation and cosmeceuticals.
* Holistic medicine and alternate therapies.
* My office colleagues - The office manager, Lynn Torrez and the other doctors I work with at the Chaparral Medical Group Bonita office - all strong people with integrity and intelligence. It is a real pleasure to work with them.
* I love art museums, calligraphy, the movies - David Lean and Merchant-Ivory movies, traveling, zoos, the old Tate in London, Singapore, Malayan cooking, tropical gardens, my family, The Galapagos, cooking, painting, walking along the colleges in Claremont, and the Sunday Farmer's Market in the Village in Claremont.
* I enjoy new things, there isn't enough to learn everything that I want to learn.
