Johanna Wang, MD

The patient-physician relationship is a partnership. I try to understand what my patients (and often their parents, too!) are experiencing. There are many different approaches to each situation. My job is to present different options and to come up with a plan that works for an individual and their family.

The trust relationship between a provider and a patient is really important to me. Seeing that relationship through as the years progress, is an aspect of medicine I can achieve as an internist. I find my daily encounters with my patients rewarding. I want my patients to feel empowered about their health.

I have wanted to be a doctor since she was about seven years old. I feel medicine is both an art and a science and that it is dynamic, challenging and requires a commitment to lifelong learning. Dr. Shih treats a broad range of dermatologic conditions. She is especially interested in complex medical dermatology, particularly oncologic and rheumatologic skin conditions.
