Dr. Xiaoyan Song, MD, PhD – Primary Care Internist Serving Flushing, New York

Finding a primary care physician who combines rigorous scientific training with warm, accessible everyday medicine is rare. Dr. Xiaoyan Song, MD, PhD is exactly that physician. Practicing internal medicine in Flushing, New York, she serves patients across the Flushing community and neighboring areas with an approach to medicine that is both evidence-driven and deeply compassionate.

An Exceptional Academic Journey

What sets Dr. Xiaoyan Song apart from many primary care physicians is her extraordinary academic background — one that bridges clinical medicine and biomedical science at the highest levels.

Her educational journey unfolded across three countries and four institutions:

• Bachelor of Medicine – Shandong First Medical University, China
• Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering – Beijing University of Technology, China
• Ph.D. in Biology – Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, New York
• Residency in Internal Medicine – Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center, Brooklyn, New York

Holding both an MD and a PhD, Dr. Song brings a dual-layered perspective to patient care that few primary care physicians possess. Her research background informs how she interprets diagnostic data, evaluates treatment evidence, and approaches complex clinical cases.

Clinical Focus & Conditions Treated

Dr. Song’s primary care practice is designed to address the full spectrum of adult health needs. Her clinical focus areas include:

• Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) – one of the most common conditions she manages with sustained, individualized treatment plans
• Diabetes – both Type 1 and Type 2, including monitoring, medication, and lifestyle counseling
• Asthma and Respiratory Conditions – diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management
• Annual Physical Examinations – thorough health evaluations for overall wellness
• Allergy Assessment and Management
• Immunizations – adult vaccination schedules and preventive health
• Heartburn and Gastrointestinal Complaints
• General Internal Medicine Consultations for a wide range of presenting symptoms

Hospital Affiliations

Dr. Song is affiliated with several prominent New York health systems, ensuring that her patients have access to advanced inpatient care when needed:

• New York-Presbyterian Queens Hospital
• Flushing Hospital Medical Center
• New York-Presbyterian/Lower Manhattan Hospital
• Mount Sinai Beth Israel

She is also a proud member of the Chinese American Independent Practice Association (CAIPA), a network connecting quality physicians to the diverse Chinese-American community in New York.

Languages & Cultural Accessibility

Dr. Song speaks both English and Chinese (Mandarin), making her practice an especially welcoming environment for Flushing’s large Chinese-speaking population. Many of her long-term patients specifically value the ability to discuss nuanced health concerns in their native language.

What Makes Dr. Song Stand Out?

Patients describe Dr. Song as meticulous, thorough, and highly responsive in urgent situations.
