My goal is to address all of my patients' concerns and set them on the right path towards being as safe and functional as they can be. I joined St. Luke's University Health Network in 2018 as a board-certified neurologist primarily in outpatient practice. I am a fellowship trained movement disorder specialist in tremors, tic disorders, gait disorders, Parkinson's disease and many more conditions. I pursued these specialties to have the diagnostic tools to positively impact people's quality of life, especially those suffering from treatable yet commonly misunderstood conditions. Movement in particular affects our daily lives - its impact on how we interact with the world and each other makes treating disorders a big priority for me. Furthermore, I can perform botulinum toxin injections for chronic migraines, dystonia, spasticity and excessive drooling. We offer a growing and well-regarded program in Deep Brain Stimulation therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and essential tremor. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, going to outdoor concerts and local festivals and exploring the foodie scene. I speak both English and Mandarin Chinese.
