Lourdes "Yuli" Mosqueda, MD

Lourdes "Yuli" Mosqueda, MD, is the founder of Yuli MD Pediatrics, a concierge pediatrics practice in South Pasadena, California. 

Born and raised in Anaheim, California, Dr. Mosqueda attended the University of California, Irvine, in Irvine, California. While there, she majored in biological sciences with a minor in Spanish. 

Dr. Mosqueda furthered her education and graduated with a medical degree from The University of Illinois, College of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois, where she met her husband, Rafael. After graduation, they moved to San Francisco, California, where she completed her pediatric residency at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, California. 

After training and becoming a pediatrician, Dr. Mosqueda began providing care in community clinics, private practice, and the hospital. As a pediatric hospitalist, she attends many deliveries and takes care of newborns and patients in the emergency department.​ 

Along with becoming a pediatrician, her other greatest accomplishments include raising her family and moving to South Pasadena with her husband. The couple has three wonderful children named Daniel, Isabella, and Emilio. Their two oldest kids are now in college, and their youngest keeps their weekends busy with soccer games. 

Dr. Mosqueda enjoys spending time with family, walking her two dogs, Yoda the Chihuahua and Chelsea the Boxer, and continuously discovering all that South Pasadena and the surrounding communities offer.​

Dr. Mosqueda has come to value the strong relationships 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, she opened Yuli MD Pediatrics. 

Why Yuli? That's Dr. Mosqueda's nickname given to her by her late mother. In her memory, she adopted the name for her practice. Yuli MD Pediatrics, an ideal medical practice, focuses solely on the patients, their families, and their needs..
