Chinese Logo

Dr. Chen Lifu (1899-2002) honored the first anniversary in 1994 by presenting a work of calligraphy representing the center?s name.

In 1929, Dr. Chen, a prominent politician, convinced the government to withdraw the abolishment of Chinese medicine. Subsequently, the government founded the Institute of Chinese medicine in the capital, which was a crucial step for the continual presence of Chinese medicine in China.

Edward Kwok-Ho Hui, MD obtained his medical degree from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA in 2001 and completed his internal medicine residency at the Center for Health Sciences-UCLA in 2004. Subsequently, his two years in the VA-UCLA Geriatric Medicine Fellowship included training with the UCLA Center for East-West Medicine. He currently is Assistant Clinical Professor in the Division of General Internal Medicine and Health Services Research, Department of Medicine at UCLA where he is active in clinical care and teaching as a general internist with background in integrative East-West medicine and geriatric medicine. He feels that primary/continuity care would benefit greatly from increased appreciation of values and utilization of approaches championed by geriatrics and integrative East-West medicine and that they must play a role in redesign of primary care going forward.
