Dr. Ed Chu is a Taiwanese-American cardiologist. He was born and raised in Florida to parents who immigrated to the US from Taiwan. Like many ABC's, he attended Chinese school on weekends, spoke Mandarin at home, and used chopsticks for pretty much everything. He studied biomedical engineering in college, and went to work for a medical technology company for two years. He soon realized that he had a calling to help people in a different way, and became a doctor. He’s currently a cardiology fellow in NYC, and has some great advice for people considering medicine as a profession. Tune in to hear what is favorite meal is!
(We caught up with him while he was on break from moonlighting at the hospital. Apologies for the background elevator dinging.)
