Q&A with Dr. Chou
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
Mulan is my favorite animated movie!
What is your favorite children's book?
Shel Silverstein's "The Giving Tree" because of its theme of selfless love.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
LEGOs were my favorite childhood toy.
Who is your greatest inspiration?
One of my greatest inspirations is my dad, who immigrated from Taiwan to obtain his graduate degree and forged a life for our family in the US. His determination and sacrifice have profoundly shaped who I am today.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Exploring new restaurants around the valley, hunting for treasures in antique stores, jamming on the piano, and spending time with my community.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
Building lasting relationships with families and guiding children through their journey to adulthood.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
Love getting to know families over time and celebrating their highs and lows with them, because this enables me to more wholly take care of their emotional, mental, and physical health
