DR. YULI
a.k.a.
Lourdes Mosqueda, MD
I enjoy spending time with family, walking our 2 dogs, Yoda the Chihuahua and Chelsea the Boxer and continuously discovering all that South Pasadena and our surrounding communities have to offer.
​
I've come to value the strong relationships that develop between doctor and patient. However, over the years, doctor visits have transformed into rushed 10-minute appointments resulting in impersonal medical care. For this reason, I have opened Yuli MD Pediatrics. Why Yuli? This is my nickname given to me by my late mother. In her memory, I adopted this name for my practice. The focus of Yuli MD Pediatrics, an ideal medical practice, is solely on my patients, their families, and their needs.
I was born and raised in Anaheim, California. After graduating from high school, I went on to attend the University of California, Irvine. While there, I majored in biological sciences with a minor in Spanish. I then graduated with a medical degree from The University of Illinois, College of Medicine, which is where I met my husband, Rafael. After graduation, we moved to San Francisco, California where I completed my pediatric residency at California Pacific Medical Center.
​
After completing training and becoming a Pediatrician, I began providing care in community clinics, private practice, and in the hospital. As a pediatric hospitalist, I attended many deliveries, took care of newborns as well as patients in the emergency department.
​
Along with becoming a Pediatrician, my other greatest accomplishments include raising my family and moving to South Pasadena with my husband.
​
Rafael and I have 3 wonderful children, Daniel, Isabella, and Emilio. Our 2 oldest are now in college and our youngest keeps our weekends busy with soccer games.
