Education:
- Residency: Oregon Health Sciences University - Internal Medicine

Her clinical philosophy emphasizes holistic patient-centered care, treating individuals as whole humans rather than medical cases. She functions as the primary care coordinator ("quarterback") for hospitalized patients, integrating input from diverse medical teams while prioritizing patient understanding and personalized treatment plans based on individual values and backgrounds. Her work bridges clinical practice with academic medicine through Rush University's educational mission.
Dr. Tsai maintains her primary clinical practice at Rush University Hospitalists (1717 W Congress Pkwy, Chicago, IL 60612), where she focuses on acute inpatient management without outpatient appointments. Her approach centers on building trust through clear communication, evidenced by patient feedback about finally understanding their medical conditions after her explanations.
