Keith Lui, MD

Dr. Lui completed his undergraduate at the University of California, Berkeley College of Letters and Science. He was on the Dean’s List for outstanding academic achievement and was the recipient of the Regent’s and Chancellor’s Scholarship, a prestigious scholarship offered to a small number of students. He received his Bachelor of Science in Economics and completed several pre-med classes as well.

He attended the Loma Linda University School of Medicine in Southern California, where he received his Doctor of Medicine. He was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society during his years at Loma Linda. He rallied around the Loma Linda emphasis on the “whole patient” and their mental, physical and spiritual approach, trying to care for the entire person and not just the disease. While originally anticipating becoming a radiologist, he realized he wanted to spend more time with patients. He became interested in Psychiatry during the 3rd year of Psychiatry rotation in medical school. He found he enjoyed having the time to get to know his patients on a much more personal level than in any other specialty, and that he was able to form a real doctor-patient relationship in psychiatry.

He completed his residency at the University of California, Davis. In his four-year program, he received a breadth and depth of experience treating a variety of patient populations. He also volunteered at the California Northstate University College of Medicine, where he developed clinical cases for the Behavioral Medicine Course for first-year medical students.
