Dr. Micah Yu is an integrative rheumatologist who incorporates complementary medicine with traditional rheumatology. He is double board-certified in internal medicine and lifestyle medicine. He obtained his MD from Chicago Medical School and holds a Masters in Healthcare Administration and Biomedical sciences. He completed his internal medicine residency and rheumatology fellowship at Loma Linda University in Southern California. He is also in the Andrew Weil Integrative Medicine Fellowship at the University of Arizona. He is currently working at the Dr. Lifestyle Clinic in Newport Beach, California.

Dr. Yu has a very unique perspective on autoimmune disease and arthritis as he is both a patient with arthritis and physician. Dr. Yu was diagnosed with gout at the age of 17 and later diagnosed with spondyloarthritis as well. He has been able to significantly improve his arthritis through plant based nutrition. He is able to understand his patient’s medical problems from a patient perspective. The foundation of his practice is to combine allopathic medicine with complementary medicine. He works with his patients to come up with a treatment plan that not only fights the disease but also is aligned with his patient’s goals.

His primary focus is on autoimmune disease and arthritis. Rheumatologists treat conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, lupus, sjogrens, gout, fibromyalgia, myositis, vasculitis, and other inflammatory conditions. As a fellow, he has published multiple papers on osteoporosis and spearheaded a double-blind randomized control trial on curcumin supplementation in systemic lupus erythematosus. He has also had multiple presentations at the American College of Rheumatology national conferences.
