Summary

Dr. Lee Ellen Buenconsejo-Lum was born and raised on Oahu, graduated from Leilehua High School, attended Stanford University for her Bachelors of Science in Biology, then completed both her medical school and family medicine residency training at the University of Hawaii John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM). After completing residency in 1997, she completed a faculty development fellowship which included an emphasis on community-based participatory approaches to programmatic development and research. Her scholarly activities have focused on reducing health disparities in Hawaii and the US-Affiliated Pacific Island jurisdictions. In 2003, she was the JABSOM nominee for the AAMC Humanism in Medicine Award and in 2015 was nominated for the University of Hawaii at Manoa Excellence in Teaching award. Dr. Buenconsejo-Lum’s scholarly work has included cross-cultural curriculum development using simulation in residency training, building health system capacity to address cancer health disparities (including telehealth), improving prevention and screening for cervical cancer and developing a regional cancer surveillance system in the US Pacific.

Dr. Buenconsejo-Lum served as Residency Program Director for many years. She is Professor of Family Medicine and Community Health. Dr. Buenconsejo-Lum is also the JABSOM Designated Institutional Official and Graduate Medical Education (GME) Director, responsible for the oversight and administration of the 18 JABSOM GME programs with 230 residents and fellows. In April 2020, she became the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at JABSOM, overseeing all programs and support services that support the continuum of medical education (pipeline, post-baccalaureate, medical student, residency/fellowship, faculty and CME).
