Matthew Jung, MD

Dr. Jung's philosophy of care focuses on the combination of high quality evidence-based medical decision making, and patient centered care. Effective healthcare necessitates a partnership between a patient and their physician. His goal is to have up-to-date medical knowledge to help his patients make medical decisions about their care. His attitude towards patient care relies on preventive care, education and counseling. Medical care is never complete unless the patient plays an integral and informed role in their own health, and the best way to achieve this is through shared decision making. As a team, he and his patients work together towards a healthier future.

Originally from Canada, Dr. Matthew Jung completed his undergraduate degree with a Bachelor of Health Sciences at McMaster University.
