About Tae Chan Paul Yang, MD

As a physiatrist, Tae Chan Paul Yang, MD, is trained in physical medicine and rehabilitation, a medical specialty focused on enhancing and restoring function and quality of life. He has been recognized for his outstanding teaching on topics such as spinal muscular atrophy, musculoskeletal radiology and principles of physical medicine and rehabilitation.  

 

Dr. Yang’s research interests include traumatic brain injury rehabilitation, immersive virtual reality for nerve conduction studies and innovative self-care curriculums for medical education including addressing medical burnout and wellness. 

 

Away from work, he enjoys gardening, camping, hiking and other activities that engage him with the beauty of the outdoors. He saves time for baking fresh sourdough loaves, hand-rolling pasta and making fruit preserves sourced from the garden. 

“The human body is capable of truly miraculous things. I strive to establish the connection between mind and body by fine-tuning how the physical self interacts with the world. I believe in all individuals being able to be live their most optimized versions of themselves, free of impairments, without judgment or limitations based on existing disabilities.  

 

I bring a holistic, whole-person care approach to my relationship with patients, not by just listening, but by really hearing what they say. Being able to tailor care to each individual’s circumstances and needs inspires me to be a better physician every day and to touch their lives for a better foot forward.
