Get to Know Dr. Chun
As a board-certified OB/GYN, truth, respect, and connection are at the core of everything I do. Each birth is a chance to protect what matters most - safety, dignity, and the power of informed choice. Through thousands of deliveries and countless moments with women and doulas, this mission continues: to bring clarity and compassion to every step of the journey.
The Heart Behind the Work
For me, this has never been just a job - it’s a calling. I believe birth is one of the most natural and profound experiences a woman can have. Yet too often, it’s treated like a problem to be managed, rather than a process to be trusted. I’ve spent my career listening deeply, educating honestly, and showing up fully for women and families.
- Decades of OB-GYN experience
- Evidence-based, personalized guidance
- Ongoing, hands-on support and connection
The Purpose Behind My Practice
Mission
To restore trust, dignity, and truth to maternal care by centering women - always. To train doulas with real clinical wisdom so they can protect from within a system that too often forgets who birth is really for.
Vision
A world where every woman feels safe, seen, and sovereign as she becomes a mother. A world where doulas are empowered, respected, and equipped to lead the change from the inside out.
Birth is sacred. My job is to protect that truth, and those who make it possible.
Why Work With Me
Here’s what makes my care truly different - and why so many women and doulas choose to work with me.
Clinical Experience That Matters
With over 35 years in OB-GYN care and extensive hands-on experience delivering babies, this program offers deep insight, practical expertise, and trusted guidance at every step of your journey.
Truth Over Trends
No fads. No fluff. Just clear, evidence-based guidance rooted in what truly matters: your health, your choices, and what works in real life.
Built On Trust, Not Control
Birth should be led by the mother, not dictated by a system. This approach centers on informed decisions, personalized care, and your voice at the center.
Education With Impact
This isn’t just about one birth. It’s knowledge that empowers families, equips doulas, and raises the standard of care. By understanding the system and how to navigate it, you help create better outcomes for everyone.
My Approach
Gentle Guidance
We offer direction with care and humility - empowering you to make choices, not pushing them on you.
Clarity Over Confusion
We make sure you fully understand every step. No jargon. No confusion. Just real talk and honest support.
You First, Always
You are the expert of your own body and story. We honor that by centering your needs, voice, and pace.
My story
I didn’t choose obstetrics. It chose me. And it’s been my calling ever since.
