Overview

I am a specialist in neuromuscular medicine. I diagnose and treat people with neuromuscular diseases, such as ALS, neuropathy, myopathy, and myasthenia gravis. I always want to make an accurate diagnosis and provide effective treatment. However, treating every person with humanity is equally important to me. I believe in listening carefully to people as they describe their symptoms and as they express concerns they may have. Listening and treating people with respect is key to the doctor-patient relationship.

Dr. Li is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Myasthenia Gravis. Her top areas of expertise are Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's Disease), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy, and Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 3.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 39 peer reviewed articles and participating in 1 clinical trial. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.
