Dr. Joanna Yeh is a pediatric gastroenterologist who practices in Westwood and Santa Monica. Her clinical and research interests include general gastroenterology, nutrition, fatty liver disease/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and obesity. She is board certified in pediatrics and pediatric gastroenterology, and speaks limited Spanish and Mandarin.
In addition to her in-clinic work, Dr. Yeh is working to improve access for pediatric GI patients by piloting the division’s telemedicine practice.
