  • Summary

  • Summary: We explore the experiences of Korean immigrants with Cheryl Lee, the chief executive director of the Korean Women's Association. We discuss the historical waves of Korean immigration, the pivotal role of Korean churches in providing communal and cultural support, and the shift in church engagement among second-generation Korean Americans. We also examine the dietary practices and cultural beliefs that influence Korean American health behaviors and discuss strategies for healthcare providers to effectively communicate with Korean patients. Through Cheryl's insights, we learn about the challenges faced by elderly immigrants, the impact of stereotyping as a model minority, and the importance of trust and empathy in building patient-provider relationships.
