About Gordon C. Cheng, MD
I chose to pursue medicine because it offered me more personal satisfaction than my previous career in software. I truly love pediatrics. As a parent of two kids, I have experienced firsthand the thrills and challenges that come with parenthood. My goal for my patients is the same as for my own children — to optimize their health so they can achieve their dreams. In my spare time, I love exploring San Diego with my family, traveling, experiencing new foods and cultures and scuba diving.

Choosing Dr. Cheng as our pediatrician has been one of the best decisions I've made for my kids. I know they are in the best of hands with someone who really knows his stuff and genuinely cares about my kids' well-being. Despite his ever-humble protests, Dr. Cheng is without a doubt one of the best doctors at Sharp Rees-Stealy.
