Eijean Wu, MD, MPP

Board Certified in Gynecologic Oncology & OBGYN

Languages spoken: English, Mandarin

In my own life, I have been the patient, the caregiver, the researcher, the policymaker, and the physician. My passion is to make the healthcare system work for every person and alleviate suffering around cancer.

When I meet you, you will have been diagnosed with a serious illness or ‘The Big C.’ In that moment, my work is to make a connection and help you understand how the situation of cancer can be managed. My team and I will walk you through the surgical and therapeutic parts of your healing journey, and facilitate additional support to bring back your sense of well-being. You will not face this challenge alone.
