Dr. Yik is on Doximity

I am currently a gastroenterology fellow at UC Irvine and competent in general GI, IBD and hepatology! During fellowship, I've performed research on polyp-based colorectal cancer screening strategies and also assisted residents with case reports. I also enjoy performing procedures and learning about new technological innovations in gastroenterology! I will be one of the chief gastroenterology fellows next year and graduating in the summer of 2024.

Before fellowship, I also completed my medicine residency at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center, where I was also a chief resident. I completed my medical school at Tufts University School of Medicine. I also have a Master's of Engineering in Bioengineering from UC San Diego and a Bachelor's of Science in Bioengineering from UC Berkeley. I previously worked as a project engineer at a startup, PuraCath Medical, and as a Regulatory Affairs and Quality Engineering Intern at Reflexion Health
