À propos de cet audio

In this episode, host Rachel Huynh (MS3) speaks with Dr. Angela Suen, Dr. Brian Graham, and Dr. Michael Lee, UCSF physicians who also care for patients at San Francisco's Chinese Hospital. They discuss the historic mission of Chinese Hospital, its legacy as "The People's Hospital," and the importance of its collaboration with UCSF in expanding equitable and culturally centered care. The physicians share how culturally sensitive practices—such as honoring traditional health beliefs and providing language-concordant care—help build trust and improve patient experiences. They offer thoughtful advice to medical trainees who want to serve Chinese-speaking patients, even without language fluency, and describe meaningful ways to engage respectfully and curiously with the Chinatown community. Grounded in their strong commitment to Chinese Hospital, their stories illustrate the profound impact of culturally centered care and the challenges patients encounter navigating healthcare systems across institutions and cultures. The conversation concludes with their hopes for the future of Chinese Hospital and the continued strengthening of community-centered partnerships. Join the UCSF 2026 Alumni Weekend's "UCSF Talk: Podcasting Science," which will take place on Saturday, April 25, 2026 from 3:30–4:20 PM (PDT) at Fisher Banquet Hall at Mission Bay.
