Quang Ton, MD, is a member of Summit Health’s Endocrinology team. Dr. Ton's passion for helping others was ignited when he fractured his right forearm at the age of six. The warm and dedicated care he received inspired him to pursue a career in medicine.

Dr. Ton's journey towards general endocrinology was influenced by his mother's health conditions. She has Type 2 diabetes, hypothyroidism, and osteoporosis, which led Dr. Ton to a deeper understanding of these conditions. Today, he specializes in treating diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, osteoporosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, adrenal and pituitary disorders, and obesity.

During his ten years of working as a waiter while studying, Dr. Ton learned to anticipate and fulfill people’s needs through effective listening and communication. He believes in building relationships with his patients through trust and empathy. "Patient success not only relies on me, but also on the patients themselves. That is why I focus on patient education, practical goal setting, and positive thinking," says Dr. Ton.

Prior to joining Summit Health, Dr. Ton practiced for 8 years in a large multispecialty practice in Orange and Rockland counties of New York. He is a member of the Endocrine Society and the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists. 

When not practicing medicine, Dr. Ton enjoys spending time with his family - his wife and two children. He is also passionate about volunteerism, including participating in the yearly MSK Cycle for Survival event. His commitment to his patients and his community truly embodies the spirit of compassionate healthcare.
