lilian a week 1.14oz
Karie R.

Dr. Kate Pettit is hands one of the best. UVA lost one of the most talented and compassionate Doctors I have had the pleasure to have cared for me. I had a high risk pregnancy and Dr. Pettit walked me through everything clearly and kindly every step of the way. She got me through my first miscarriage, She got me through my first cerclage (and it's fail because of my poor cervix integrity, my then next pregnancy and it's craziness, and set me up for a abdominal cerclage even after she left. In my pregnancy, She listened to concerns and talked things through no matter the time I needed. I had issues that didn't present easily and because of her knowledge and concern we had to, in some cases, fight for my care as I had to stay in the hospital on bed rest starting at week 22 because of my cervix issue. Every day Dr. Pettit came in and checked on me. My Daughter came at 27 weeks via cesarian. Had Dr. Pettit not fought for me, I would have been home when My daughter came and there is a high probability she would not have made it had I not been at the hospital already. At 1.14 oz, Dr. Pettit brought my baby into this world as safely as could possibly be and her over seeing of my cesarian left me with almost no scar and complete understanding of all that went on and why. Clearly explained, 100% supported, and she ran the OR like a seasoned leader. Also keep in mind UVA is a teaching Hospital and on top of it all, she was mentoring others who will hopefully be as good as she is. After I healed and was released Dr. Pettit checked in and kept up with us as we spend three months in the NICU. As my care was transferred to another Doctor Dr. Pettit took over an hour of her time to discuss my case and care with the new doctor to make sure my future care was perfect. She also set me up for a surgery to will perhaps allow for a more "normal" pregnancy in the future should I choose. In addition to setting me up with other outstanding doctors, Dr. Pettit has been reachable to them even a year after my birth to discuss my care with them. Who does that? But it makes me feel better about my current doctors knowing my whole story and there for my care. Never have I had a doctor take the time and care in my health as Dr. Pettit did. I have not had care like that since. I don't know if Doctors read their Yelp stuff, but incase she does... Thank you Dr. Pettit. Thank you. I highly recommend her in your and your babies care. Not sure why there are reviews not posted in reviews on Yelp but are hidden. That is weird. But I have only used yelp a few times so my advice is read it all always.

Pettit I could immediately tell she was a lot more thorough in assessing what was best for me and baby.

I had the privilege of seeing Dr. Yu and Rhonda for about 11 years, and I was heartbroken to learn…read morethat Dr. Yu was no longer at CPMC (now at Kaiser). I recently tried to schedule my annual appointment, only to discover the news. I have never been so sad to lose a doctor. Dr. Yu was the first doctor I truly felt comfortable with, and her compassionate nature made all the difference in my care. She is an exceptional listener and has guided me through various life moments with expertise and kindness. I also want to express my heartfelt appreciation for Rhonda, who has always been incredibly kind, supportive, and patient with me. I will sincerely miss both of them and wish them nothing but the best. TLDR - Dr. Yu great! She is an exceptional doctor who made me feel comfortable and supported for over 11 years. She's a fantastic listener who guided me through life's ups and downs with care.

This review is long overdue. I was recently on Yelp actually searching for a new OB/GYN, as Dr. Yu…read morehas now moved on to Kaiser, and it made me reflect on my experience with her. Simply, I cannot express how grateful I am for her care, she truly saved both my life and my daughter's life. I unfortunately had a serious complication where my placenta ruptured, and in that critical moment, Dr. You made the quick and life-saving decision to perform an emergency C-section on me. I can't even imagine the outcome if it weren't for her fast thinking and incredible professionalism. She got my daughter and me through that moment safely and I will forever be thankful. Even after the delivery, when my daughter sadly had to stay in the NICU for two weeks, Yu continuously checked in on us and offered her emotional support. As a first time mom, I was so naive but she guided me through every step with such kindness and patience. She didn't just care for me physically, but emotionally as well. I feel incredibly lucky to have had Dr. Yu by my side during such a vulnerable time. Her dedication, compassion, and genuine care are things I will never ever forget.
