An experienced physician-scholar, Dr. Xing believes in a compassionate approach to treating cancer and a collaborative ethos when working with her patients and their loved ones. She has a strong interest in using both long-term data analysis and innovative, personalized medicine approaches to improve health outcomes for patients at City of Hope and beyond. 

Dr. Xing earned her medical degree at Sun Yat-Sen University of Medical Sciences in China, before going on to receive a doctoral degree in biostatistics from the University of Texas School of Public Health in Houston. She then pursued a fellowship in medical oncology at Houston Methodist Hospital and an additional fellowship in Phase I clinical trials at MD Andersen Cancer Center.

Patient reviews
The patient ratings and comments on this page are obtained from an external Press Ganey® outpatient survey provided to all eligible City of Hope patients within one to two weeks of their treatment occurrence. Raw data from the answers to the survey questions about our physicians are calculated by Press Ganey into a one- to five- star rating. In the spirit of transparency, all patient comments are posted as written by the patient, whether they are positive or negative. We only exclude comments if they are deemed to be slanderous or libelous, contain profanity or vulgar language, or do not relate to the patient's experience with the doctor involved. As a result, the comments are the views and opinions of the patients surveyed and are not endorsed by, and may not necessarily reflect the opinion of, City of Hope.

I was told that she did not have a license to practice in my area and I would need to find a local oncologist to work with under Dr Xing's guidance. When I asked if I could get some of the necessary treatments at City of Hope while I was down there they said no. [...]"
