About Me
As an orthopedic surgeon at Ohio State, I specialize in the treatment of spinal disease and disorders. Some of my clinical interests include spinal stenosis, herniated discs, degenerative disc disease and degenerative scoliosis.I take the time to develop relationships with my patients and choose treatment options based on what is in their best interest. I work to improve their quality of life by exhausting all treatment options before considering surgery. When surgery is needed to treat a patient, my team and I are here to provide the best possible surgical care.
Working at Ohio State is great because of the friendly and compassionate environment. My job also allows me to work with amazing and talented physicians.

Dr. Yu is amazing! All care givers have remarked about the skill and overall care I was given during the surgery, before and after. My friends have remarked about my quick recovery and the perfect scar. When I had questions Dr. Yu always took time and carefully gave me needed info. She cares about the over all feelings and health of her patient. All doctors should have her attitude & skill.
