Dr. Hing-Sheung Eugene Fung, MD, FRCPC, FACR
Dr. H-S Eugene Fung was recruited to Waco in Central Texas from the Windsor Rheumatic Disease Unit and Clinic of Southern Ontario in Canada, which he directed after the completion of his Chief Residency Fellowship in Internal Medicine and Rheumatology at the University of Toronto—undoubtedly the most sought-after Canadian Rheumatology training program then and even more so now. Dr. Fung established the Arthritis & Osteoporosis Clinic in Waco and brought in the first Bone Mineral Density equipment to the area, as well as the expertise and experience he gained in Canada. He is the longest serving Rheumatologist in Central Texas, having been in Waco for over 26 years without interruption. He has run a teaching Rheumatology Clinic for over 20 years with the McClennan Education and Research Foundation, and the 36 post Family Practice Residents usually come to study under him during their final year. He was selected for the Aynesworth Outstanding Faculty Award by the residents. He was the first clinician—in the world—to successfully adopt and report the usage of PTH 1-34 in treating Refractory Bisphosphonate Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw in 2007. He published “Gout Treat to Target” in 2017 in the Hong Kong Medical Diary, and he presented a paper on the proper dosing of Hydroxychloroquine in Lupus and Arthritis to the 2018 Mediterranean Congress of Rheumatology.
