About
Dr. Sy was glad to return home to Orange County for his internship and residency program at UCI Medical Center. During his residency, he was a Chief Resident in internal medicine overseeing newer residents' training. Additionally, Dr. Sy also completed a three year post graduate fellowship in Gastroenterology at Kaiser Hospital in Los Angeles.
Originally, Dr. Sy thought he would follow his "family of scientists" into a laboratory research field, but after working in a lab for a while, he found that clinical work involving patient contact better suited him.
I chose Gastroenterology because I enjoy the opportunity to perform procedures and still get to know my patients over a period of time. I know it sounds cliche, but I really do enjoy caring for patients. I like to see people get better!
Dr. Sy is board certified in gastroenterology.
Dr. Sy has volunteered his time and skills on numerous occasions including New Orleans Hurricane Katrina post hurricane Relief. In addition to volunteering, he likes to play and/or watch basketball and tennis, and spend time with family, friends, and his dog, Milo.
As a specialist, Dr. Sy may not be selected as a primary care physician. Accepts patients age 18 and over.

Henry C.
Doctor Sy was focused on me at my stage in life.
This would be my last colonoscopy. Colonoscopies can possibly result in puncture of the wall of the colon and as we age this possibility is larger. He wanted me to understand that. He also knew that my colon had more bends than normal and that meant it was more difficult to clean it out completely. So, he wanted me to spend three days prior to the operation on Miralax and the last day on Ducolax in order to accomplish that. I feel confident that the preparation will allow for a very effective procedure. Thank you, Doctor Sy.

A Dr That Listens & Actually CaresVery kind back office staff, which is important to patients first impression.. Dr Sy asked me questions about the problems I have been experiencing & he actually listened to everything I said without cutting me off like so many doctors do. He continued to ask questions until he felt that I gave him enough information to figure out what is really going on. He never made me feel like he was rushing me to get to his next patient, like so many other doctors do these days. He has some ideas & after doing some more tests & trying some different meds, hopefully he will have an answer as to what is causing my bowel changes since my trip to Costa Rica last June, since no other physicians have been able to.
