About me
Dr. Janet Chu is an internal medicine specialist who provides primary care to adults. She is dedicated to partnering with her patients and empowering them to achieve their health goals.
Chu's research focuses on how factors at the individual, health care system or neighborhood level can lead to disparities in care delivery and patient outcomes. As an advocate for equitable care, she works to develop programs and services that can be incorporated into the clinic, with the goal of tackling the root causes of health differences in communities.
Chu earned her medical degree at UCSF, where she also completed both a residency and a fellowship in general internal medicine. She has a master's degree in clinical and epidemiological research from UCSF and a master of public health degree from the University of California, Berkeley.

I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Chu as my primary care provider. She is very compassionate. She listens carefully. She is proactive and will do research in my behalf, whether that means academic research or consulting with colleagues. When needed, she without hesitation refers me to specialists. She is just a good person and very knowledgeable and proactive to boot. UCSF is lucky to have her. Oh yes, she even lists some of the articles she has researched for me, as she knows I will be interested. Thank you for asking.
