00:00:03.330 --> 00:00:04.650
<v ->Hello, my name is Chiyang Wu</v>

3
00:00:04.650 --> 00:00:06.690
and I practice family medicine.

4
00:00:06.690 --> 00:00:08.880
My grandmother was very instrumental in my

5
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:10.440
upbringing and raising me.

6
00:00:10.440 --> 00:00:12.780
She brought in that ethic of studying hard,

7
00:00:12.780 --> 00:00:14.730
and then my Christian faith blended in with that

8
00:00:14.730 --> 00:00:16.290
because its desire to help people.

9
00:00:16.290 --> 00:00:18.900
And those two in combination led me to medicine.

10
00:00:18.900 --> 00:00:20.220
My healthcare background is

11
00:00:20.220 --> 00:00:22.050
that I initially studied in engineering

12
00:00:22.050 --> 00:00:24.690
and I decided after studying engineering to pursue medicine,

13
00:00:24.690 --> 00:00:27.120
and I went to osteopathic medical school at

14
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:29.190
Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine,

15
00:00:29.190 --> 00:00:30.390
and I did my internship

16
00:00:30.390 --> 00:00:32.610
through Edgewater Medical Center in Chicago,

17
00:00:32.610 --> 00:00:35.250
and my family of medicine residency was in

18
00:00:35.250 --> 00:00:36.840
Advocate Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn

19
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:38.730
through the University of Illinois system.

20
00:00:38.730 --> 00:00:40.470
I practice family medicine, so I like

21
00:00:40.470 --> 00:00:42.690
to see the full spectrum of patients.

22
00:00:42.690 --> 00:00:44.640
I like to get to know the entire family

23
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:46.380
from birth to the end of life.

24
00:00:46.380 --> 00:00:49.530
The things I see people for are coughs and colds,

25
00:00:49.530 --> 00:00:52.290
management of chronic diseases like hypertension, diabetes,

26
00:00:52.290 --> 00:00:55.470
also help manage high cholesterol, various skin conditions,

27
00:00:55.470 --> 00:00:57.780
allergies, asthma.

28
00:00:57.780 --> 00:01:00.870
I also do some minor procedures like lipoma removal,

29
00:01:00.870 --> 00:01:04.860
cyst removals, and also some laceration repairs.

30
00:01:04.860 --> 00:01:07.920
My approach to patient care is collaborative.

31
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:10.470
I like developing a relationship with the patient,

32
00:01:10.470 --> 00:01:13.110
getting to know them, working together,

33
00:01:13.110 --> 00:01:15.300
and trying to make the best decision possible

34
00:01:15.300 --> 00:01:17.070
with what we know medically

35
00:01:17.070 --> 00:01:19.110
and what the patient will feel comfortable doing,

36
00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:22.290
and just help them improving their overall health.

37
00:01:22.290 --> 00:01:25.020
With my free time, I like outdoor activities with my family.

38
00:01:25.020 --> 00:01:28.320
We like to go fishing, clamming, and crabbing,

39
00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:30.360
and camping as well.

40
00:01:30.360 --> 00:01:32.910
