About Susan S. Chung, MD
General pediatrician Susan Sohn Chung, MD, has always loved working with children. From a young age, she was inspired to become a doctor by observing the love and dedication her father showed his patients in his own cardiology practice. Working with children in her high school and college years as a tutor in inner city schools and a camp counselor for children affected by cancer further strengthened her conviction to become a pediatrician. Dr. Chung now strives to provide excellence in pediatric care with a compassionate, family-centered approach.
Dr. Chung received her undergraduate degree from Stanford University. She attended medical school and completed her residency at the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine.
She is grateful to be at Phoenix Children's, where she enjoys working with other providers who share her commitment to the highest standard of care.
"I enjoy building long-term relationships with my patients and their families," says Dr. Chung. "It's rewarding to watch patients grow and thrive over the years."
Outside of work, Dr. Chung enjoys spending time with her family, learning how to cook international dishes, appreciating nature and relaxing with her pet Yorkie, Lucky.

Dr. Chung is amazing. She has been the pediatric provider for both of our kids. She is kind and caring. She also does an amazing job talking to the kids about what is wrong, where it hurts, etc. She also explains to them what is going on in language the child understands.
