Julie Jung Hyun Lee
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Julie J. Lee is a Stanford physician board-certified in Internal Medicine, Obesity Medicine, and Clinical Informatics. Her work centers on two goals: (1) augmenting the human practice of medicine through technology and (2) advancing precision health through innovation in obesity medicine. She maintains an active clinical practice in primary care and obesity medicine to keep a pulse on changing clinical realities, ensuring that her work is grounded in real-world care and, whenever possible, co-designed and tested with the patients and care teams it is meant to serve.
In clinical informatics, Dr. Lee focuses on how emerging technologies such as AI can augment clinicians while preserving clinical judgment. Her work spans clinical decision support, workflow redesign, and the responsible integration of technology into care. As Health Equity Informaticist in Stanford’s Division of Primary Care and Population Health, she also uses data, community engagement, and her own lived experience as a first generation immigrant to advance more equitable care, including language-concordant care.
In obesity medicine, Dr. Lee focuses on Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) health and is curious about where the rapidly evolving science of obesity may lead, including its implications for cancer, inflammation, addiction, and healthy longevity. Her approach is informed by training in epidemiology and quantitative methods and prior work in chronic disease surveillance and women’s cardiovascular health. As Clinical Champion of the Stanford Metabolic Health Interventions and Lifestyle Empowerment Support (SMILES) Program, she is particularly interested in how primary care can thoughtfully integrate emerging therapeutics, technologies, and multidisciplinary care while building evidence for historically underserved and understudied populations. She is also a member of the Stanford Center for Asian Health Research and Education (CARE).
Across her work, health equity, ethics, and the medical humanities remain foundational. As an artist and musician first, the humanities keep her connected to the joy of medicine and her belief that advances in science and technology should protect and preserve the essence of original human creativity.
