About Wesley Yu, MD

I am a fellowship-trained, double board-certified micrographic surgeon and dermatologic oncologist who treats skin cancers using Mohs surgery, a precise technique for cancers on the face and other sensitive areas. I completed my dermatology residency at UC San Francisco (UCSF), where I was selected as chief resident. I then pursued a prestigious Mohs surgery fellowship at Case Western Reserve University, the most advanced training in the field. I went on to perform thousands of procedures at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), where I earned early promotion to associate professor, received the Clinical Star Award for patient experience in the institution’s top quartile, and served as interim director of the Melanoma and Skin Cancer Program. I now bring that depth of experience to Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group. My work is recognized nationally. I am regularly invited to teach at major conferences, and my research is cited in national treatment guidelines. But what matters most to me is the patient in front of me. I believe the best treatment decisions are made together. I have developed decision aids to help my patients understand their options, and I take the time to listen, explain each choice in plain language and answer every question so the treatment plan you choose reflects not only sound medicine but also what matters most to you. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, listening to music, chasing my kid around, hiking and learning about the local area from my patients.
