Becky Choung, DO

Where are you coming to us from?
Atlanta, GA

What are you most excited about this year?
I’m looking forward to working with the faculty and my co-fellows! Palliative medicine is a collaborative field by nature, so I can’t wait to learn from everyone. On a personal note, I’m moving back to Houston for the first time in 16 years – I’m excited to introduce the city to my husband and baby.

Why did you choose Geriatric or Palliative Medicine as a subspecialty?
I chose Palliative Medicine because it focuses on patient-oriented care. It is a privilege to be able to support patients in a difficult time in their lives as well as serve as a liaison between the patient and the rest of their treatment team.

What is the most fun thing you want people to know about you?
I love to try new restaurants – please send any recommendations my way!
