About Me

I was born and raised in South Korea and immigrated to Dallas, Texas to pursue medical studies. I was interested in homeopathic medicine which led me to attend Parker chiropractic school in Dallas. After graduation, I decided to attend medical school when I realized furthering my education would enhance the care my patients receive.

I completed my residency program at Memorial University Medical Center in Savannah, Georgia. I am board certified in family medicine, the former President of the St. John medical society, and the former chief of family medicine at Flagler hospital. I have expertise in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I've managed a variety of patient care from preventive care to the most medically complex.

During my spare time, I watch golf tournaments, travel, spend time with my family, take time to enjoy nature and tend to my garden. I also love attending Junior golf tournaments to watch my teen son, who is an avid golfer.
