Role in the Community

  • Listed in the TAH Foundation Who’s Who encyclopedia as entry #1653, published 2017-05-11: 1653. Dr. Tsunie Chanchien 張簡俊一醫師. Earlier sweeps (2026-09-25/26) found only the own record in content/works + articles; the 2026-10-08 vault sweep surfaced memoir material below.
  • Memoir corpus (2026-10-08, deepen-x 10070600-23): Kaohsiung Medical classmate 鄭瑞雄 recalls in 03) that 張簡俊一 was an internal-medicine resident at Jamaica Hospital (New York) and recommended 鄭瑞雄 for his first-year contract, then moved “隔年一月” to a nearby VA hospital for internal residency — consistent with the Brooklyn VA Medical Center 1970 residency in the TAH table. 張簡’s wife was 鄭’s wife’s 台南女中 classmate, who looked after the couple in New York.
  • Chicago years: in 2017), 張簡俊一夫婦 hosted 陳欽明 in Chicago during his 1970s emigration transit; 陳 also recalled receiving 張簡’s airmail letters from Chicago while he himself worked at 台療 — corroborating Chicago-based practice before the Berwyn Heights move.
  • Medical-career panelist, TAA/Washington Chapter: listed as 張簡俊一醫師(內科/預防醫學/心臟病/代謝症候群/糖尿病/高血壓/血脂肪異常)in Washington Chapter newsletter — consistent with the Berwyn Heights, MD internal-medicine practice in the TAH employment table.
  • HOLD / disambiguation (deepen-x 2026-10-07, slice 10052007-18): the compound surname 張簡 recurs in the memoir corpus as 張簡吉誠醫師 (Cleveland) — a founding participant of the Cleveland Taiwanese Medical Association (1983, 楓林閣) per Our Journeys 74, and preacher of the “Get Yourself Connected” TAF sermon in Senior Taiwanese American 36. No corpus evidence links him to Dr. Tsunie Chanchien 張簡俊一; never merge without confirmation.
