Kenneth Lam, MD, Radiation Oncologist, Recognized as a Healthcare Hero by Business Life Magazine

Kenneth Lam

In Business Life Magazine’s August-September issue, Kenneth Lam, MD, radiation oncologist, is featured as a Healthcare Hero. Dr. Lam was recognized for his efforts to further strengthen access to services for our diverse community – who may otherwise face language or other barriers to care. This includes his work founding a Cantonese-speaking cancer patient support group at Huntington Hospital, the first one of its kind in Southern California. This monthly group gives community support to the Chinese population in the San Gabriel Valley, home to one of the highest concentrations of Chinese residents in the United States.

“Dr. Lam is a world-class physician who’s in great demand, yet, in addition to providing expert care, he’s also a generous donor and a great advocate,” says Jane Haderlein, senior vice president, philanthropy and public relations. “His contributions of time, talent and financial resources are truly transformative. It’s hard to express how grateful we are.”
