About Cherie Chu, MD
It is such a privilege to be a pediatrician because I have the opportunity to build long relationships with families. I love being able watch children grow up knowing that I contributed to their well-being. I believe in an approach that focuses on a healthy lifestyle to maintain wellness. I work together with families not just for acute medical care, but also in preventive care by promoting lifelong healthy habits. I participate in the Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group Climate and Planetary Health Committee because I have an interest in addressing the impact of climate change on human health. I enjoy cooking, photography, crafting and spending time with my family.

Dr. Chu really cared about our family getting the help we needed right before Christmas. She went above and beyond to ensure that all three of our kids got antibiotics.

We appreciate that Dr. Chu shared her personal experiences as a mother and also love that she also specializes in lifestyle medicine. She took her time listening to our concerns and never made us feel rushed. We have enjoyed all of our appointments with her and are glad we selected her as our pediatrician.

The only thing that could make an appointment with Dr. Chu any better is if she were at the Santee location!

It was my last time visiting my pediatrician and she kindly helped me find a new doctor. I would strongly recommend Dr. Chu as a pediatrician because she cares about her patients and always tries to help solve whatever problem is present.
