Veda Wu

Dr. Wu, her nurse Chelsea and everyone we have interacted with in her office have been amazing. Recently our 2 year old was pretty ill and Dr. Wu called us every day, sometimes multiple times to check on her progress. Such personal care is rare and very much appreciated!

We ALL love Dr Wu! Mom, Dad, Grandmother and the actual patients: 12 yr old girl and 6 yr old girl.
Finding a good doctor, especially for your BABIES, is never easy. When a change of insurance forced us to find a new doctor @6 years ago, we were distraught. Our older daughter had only ever been to the wonderful Dr Nicole Gorton… plus, the new doctor would also be responsible for our newborn.
I did a lot of research and, thankfully, the internets were right! Dr Wu is WONDERFUL. She is kind, patient and understanding. She has a unique ability to communicate effectively with everyone in the room without having to repeat or «talk down» for the kids — for the younger one’s appointments, my older daughter likes to be involved. Dr Wu makes a point of answering all of our questions, even the questions from the overprotective big sister.
My girls are never scared, worried, or get uptight about going to see «their» Dr Wu. How often can you say that about a kid going to the doctor’s office?

Totally Awesome Pediatrician! Dr. Wu is a caring, sensitive, friendly amazing pediatric doctor. We were new to San Diego, arriving here 7 months pregnant and needed a pediatrician without much time to shop around. I stumbled upon a few other reviews and chose Dr. Wu. What a lucky find! She was great in the hospital after he was born, great throughout his well child check ups as infant and toddler. She cares for our now 18 month old son and 9 year old daughter. The office is great. Nurses are nice. She takes as much time as we need to ask questions. She follows up with a phone call at home afterwards, one time the nursing staff made the call, one time it was her personally. My son’s circumcision went very well. She is a mother which is a must when shopping for a doctor in my book! I highly recommend her.

We are big fans of Dr. Wu. My child is 2 years old now and we have only had positive visits thus far. Dr. Wu and her staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I never feel rushed and Dr. Wu is very thorough. She came recommended to us through friends and I recommend her to all of our friends who are looking for a good pediatrician.

We love Dr. Wu!!! Here are the reasons why:
1). We are fairly young (25 & 27) and brand-​new parents, so we always have tons of questions for her. No question is ever a stupid one in her book.
2). She always gives us as much time as we need; we never feel rushed or hurried.
3). She also calls us personally on the phone! (Come on now, what doctors today really do that anymore???) Our daughter just had chest x-​rays done, and Dr. Wu called us personally to let us know that she might have the beginning stages of pneumonia. She immediately gave us an RX at our local pharmacy.
4). She is super friendly and treats our daughter with loving hands and kind words.
5). She is also very knowledgeable and has great answers for every question we pose.
6). I also pay my bills online with
and check-​up on appointments there.
She is part of Sharp Rhees-​Stealy. Like the previous reviewer said, parking is kind of a bummer– $ 2 each time. But it’s worth it to see Dr. Wu.

Searching for THE pediatrician is tough… I mean, of course you only want the best for your little one right? So of course we went and did the «meet and greet» with a couple of Doctors just to see what was out there. I initially went through the list of doctors that were on our providers list… then also went through and looked at where they went to school and what year they graduated (didn’t want an old geezer and didn’t want a newbie)… lastly, I stumbled across a list where you can check San Diego magazine online and look up Best Doctors in San Diego. That was very helpful! And here is where I ultimately decided to check Dr. Wu out. We saw a total of three pediatricians on meet and greets. Dr. Wu was our last one, and a last minute decision after we weren’t absolutely thrilled about the first two Docs we saw.
Dr. Wu is soooo nice and patient. She is open to answering all of our questions and of course I have a list written out every time I come in (being a new mom). I just really liked that she was thorough and warm in her relations with us. I felt that she was very knowledgeable and that «no question is a dumb question». My daughter is 10 months old now, and I’m still very happy with our decision on Dr.Wu. She is definitely a keeper!
Btw…She’s in the Sharp Rees-​Steely Medical Group (so we have had to see other Docs and nurses on sick visits)… but she is linked with Children’s Hospital if there is ever a need for hospital care for our little one.
Parking is probably my biggest gripe. Its $ 2 every time (with validation). Never had to wait very long at the office, which is good. Making appointments is not so bad since I make them months in advance for the well-​baby check-​ups. Sick visits aren’t so bad either since you see whoever is available.
