Q&A with Dr. Chih
What is your favorite animated movie or cartoon?
Tom and Jerry
What is your favorite children's book and why?
Never Touch a Dinosaur. I have a toddler, and it is his favorite. He wants me to read it to him everyday, and he loves touching the dinosaurs.
What was your favorite childhood toy?
Bionicle from LEGOs. These were 6 humanoid mechanical heroes with elemental powers that wants to maintain peace in the galaxy. Need I say more?
Who is your greatest inspiration and why?
My father! He is a great man who often made sacrifices for me and his family. He would always put others before him and that has inspired me to do the same.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
Traveling! I love to plan trips down to the tiniest detail and watch travel videos. My wife likes to just show up to a place without planning and try to figure it out there. She says I am a "planner," whatever that means.
What inspired you to work in pediatrics?
I love working with kids. My first job was a tutor for little kids, and I knew that was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I am passionate about teaching families about their little ones.
What unique qualities, skills, or services set you apart, and how do you build a positive rapport with patients and their families?
As a father, I understand the need to protect your children. I empathize with parents who just want the best for their precious little ones, and I will do my best to provide that.
