I became a physician so every day I can utilize science to improve the health and lives of others with kindness and compassion. As your family's pediatrician, I strive to be a friendly advocate for your child's health from birth to young adulthood. Listening to my patients and their loved ones’ concerns is one of my top priorities. Born with a cleft lip and having more doctor visits than the average child, I want children to feel included in their medical care. My practice is focused on evidence-based medicine, immunizations, and promoting healthy lifestyles. Outside of work, I enjoy surfing, pickleball, tennis, running, weightlifting, cooking, trying new restaurants, and traveling.

Dr Yu spoke to my child and asked him questions and I thought that was great because he's old enough to speak up for himself.

Dr. Yu is pretty amazing, every single time we had an appointment with him he is very kind, thorough and really good with the kids, which of course makes it a lot easier for the parents.
