About
He earned his medical degree at Albany Medical College, followed by residency and a fellowship at Montefiore Medical Center. In 2009 Dr. Jung joined Queens Medical Associates, which became part of Northwell in 2020.
The practice provides culturally sensitive and cutting-edge care for patients in the borough, and the connection with Northwell gives them a community-focused practice with considerable resources. Physicians and staff represent fluency in over 30 languages, an important part of making patients feel at ease.
Dr. Jung, who came to the United States from South Korea at age 10 in 1986, is fluent in Korean and has a personal connection with the immigrant experience. "As an immigrant myself, I noticed that many in the immigrant population lacked access to medical care, or were uncomfortable due to a language barrier," he notes. "That was my motivation to become a physician, so I could help people in diverse communities and provide really meaningful care. I wanted to be with these patients through the whole process, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond."
He chose medical oncology because of the exciting breakthroughs in the specialty. Cancer care seemed to be progressing at a fast pace, and Dr. Jung wanted to bring that science to patients. He's particularly focused on gastrointestinal oncology, since those cancers are more prevalent in Asian populations, but he sees a variety of oncological patients. He has been named a top doctor by Castle Connolly and one of the city's "Super Doctors" for several years.
Joining Northwell gives him and other oncologists in the practice greater access to more comprehensive cancer care, he says. Patients may also be candidates for clinical trials, which Dr. Jung says is important to close gaps in healthcare and treatment access for underserved patients.
"Now, our patients have the doctors they've seen for years, but also this breadth of specialists, from palliative care to surgeons to physical therapists, as well as potential clinical trial involvement," he adds. "I'm extremely grateful to be able to practice in this community, where there's such enormous need, and together with Northwell, we can meet those needs for everyone."
