Dr. Douglas Sung Won, MD reflects on his professional journey from early clinical curiosity to healthcare systems architecture. Beginning with innovations in minimally invasive spine surgery, he gradually recognized that patient outcomes are shaped not only by procedural skill but by the structure of the healthcare system itself. Drawing on experience building integrated care models and leading organizations such as the Minimally Invasive Spine Institute and Lumin Health, Dr. Won explains how intentional system design, vertical integration, and aligned care pathways can reduce fragmentation and create more durable healthcare environments.
