Steve Pyong Yu, MD

I became a doctor to empower individuals with hope, positivity, and humankindness. I'm board-certified in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, and my philosophy is based on providing excellent surgical care for women in uterus-sparing minimally invasive procedures. 

I have performed approximately 1,000 laparoscopic myomectomies (a minimally invasive procedure to remove fibroids from the uterus). These procedures resulted in countless women being free from pelvic pain, urinary frequency, and heavy menstruation while preserving their fertility.

I do not perform hysterectomies unless it's absolutely necessary, which it rarely is, in my opinion. I firmly believe that women historically have been mistreated regarding gynecologic surgical care, evident by the disproportional number of women who have had their uteri and/or ovaries removed.
