Biography

Dr. Hung specializes in caring for patients with cancer and blood disorders.

Every day, she is humbled by the strength and resilience of her patients and the unique ways in which they cope with their chronic diseases.  She is passionate about educating patients and their families. She has a specific interest in caring for women with breast cancer. She is excited about the plethora of new therapies and the move towards personalized care by identifying specific molecular markers to target individual tumors.

In her spare time, Dr. Hung loves to spend time with her husband and young son. They love the outdoors, exploring the many parks and hidden trails of the Pacific Northwest.
