Dr. Yun is a Board-Certified Urologist who has been with the Urology Center since 2004. He grew up in the Midwest, graduated from medical school on the East Coast, and completed his surgery and Urology training on the West Coast. Dr. Yun enjoys the practice of urology and believes that the Urology Center delivers state-of-the-art urologic care in a compassionate, caring environment.
My philosophy of the practice of medicine is to treat each patient with empathy, dignity, and respect. This involves listening first, which I have heard is a lost art in medicine. I strive to understand a patient’s hopes, fears, and expectations before designing an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan. My patients take an active role in deciding among management options, as I strongly believe in a patient’s autonomy and decision-making authority. Ultimately, my guiding principle is to treat each patient as I would want a member of my own family to be treated.
“I see many types of patients, and have an interest in minimally invasive techniques for the management of both benign and malignant urologic conditions. To give back to the community, I also devote time to urological cancer support groups, and serve on several elected committees within our local hospitals.”
