Colony Pediatric is committed to the healthy development of children, physically and psychologically.
Dr. Yu was certified by American Board of Pediatrics in 2000.
Dr. Quntao Yu graduated from Qingdao Medical School in China in 1983. After his Pediatric residency, he went on to the Capital Pediatric Institute of Peking Union Medical College (Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences) in Beijing for his Pediatric Cardiology fellowship. In three years, he completed systematic training as a clinical pediatric cardiologist with honors. During his fellowship, he participated in two major national tasks and had three publications on children's myocarditis and hypertension. For that, he was invited to the cardiology department of Baylor College of Medicine, being a Bugher Foundation Fellow of Molecular Biology in Cardiovascular Systems, sponsored by the American Heart Association, in 1990.
During his fellowship and following times, he had done profound research in molecular biology and molecular genetics in cardiomyopathy, sponsored by the AHA and NIH, and several clinical projects on molecular markers for coronary heart diseases. He dedicated his major efforts to finding the mutations of the disease-causing candidate genes and establishing transgenic cell and animal models with the mutations. His works were presented in many national conventions of AHA and ACC and resulted in more than twenty papers published on peer-reviewed professional journals.
Dr. Yu started his practice as Colony Pediatric after he completed his second round pediatric residency training at Driscoll Children's Hospital in 2000. He has been serving as the pediatric/OB-GYN department chair for the Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital for 6 years. With his dedication to our patients and community, he was elected as the Best Pediatrician in Fort Bend in 2006 by the readers of Fort Bend/Southwest SUN. He has been awarded the Patients' Choice Award since 2008.
