In the NICU, we not only care for babies, but we also make sure family needs are being met.
Dr. Hu

“In the NICU, we not only care for babies, but we also make sure family needs are being met,” says Dr. Hu. “This includes giving parents the resources they need to care for their little ones after discharge. It’s a special, nurturing environment where we can work with high-risk babies and their families to provide the best care and offer them the most specific information we can to help guide them through their journey.”

As Medical Director of the FETAL Center, Dr. Hu helps coordinate and provide care for newborns. She works with specialists across many service lines to develop the best care plan for each baby. Dr. Hu also leads efforts to improve the quality of care and outcomes for each patient and provides learning opportunities for residents and fellows. 

Dr. Hu lives in Dallas with her husband and their dog Hugo, a Corgi/Beagle mix. In her spare time, she enjoys taking Hugo to the dog park, spending time with friends, Pilates and traveling.
