About Me
A Message from Dr. James Choi:
My decision to pursue medicine started with my own family. Growing up, my parents worked long hours and rarely had time for checkups. I wanted to become a physician so I could help them—and others like them—access the care they deserve. I was drawn to pulmonology because I enjoy the hands-on procedural work, such as bronchoscopies, as well as the fascinating physiology of the lungs. I earned both my Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine and my Bachelor of Science in Human Biology at Michigan State University. My philosophy of care is simple: “everybody is equal, and they all deserve the same amount of care and kindness.” Nothing is more rewarding than helping a patient find the answers they’ve been searching for and guiding them toward better health. If breathing challenges are affecting your life, I’m here to listen, support you, and help you take the first step toward healing.
