Benjamin Chung, MD: Why I Went into Medicine

Surgeon Benjamin Chung's physician father discouraged him from entering the medical field, but Chung decided to become a doctor anyway. Chung explains why he wanted to become a urology surgeon despite his father's advice. Dr. Chung is Stanford's director of robotic surgery and treats men with urologic cancers.
