Practice Overview 

An In-Depth Look into the Practice

At a Glance

Practice Profile

The practice was founded by Jessica Wu, MD, a Harvard-trained, board-certified dermatologist. Over more than 20 years in Beverly Hills, Dr. Wu has built one of the most established cosmetic and clinical dermatology practices on the Westside, with a sophisticated patient base that includes executives, public figures, and patients who value direct physician relationships.

The practice is expanding its scope. With Dr. Scott Hammerman joining the dermatology team, the practice is now adding a women's health service line and a planned functional medicine physician. The new gynecologist will be the first GYN in the practice's history and will help shape that service line from the start.

Location and Setting

The practice is located at 433 North Camden Drive in Beverly Hills, in the city's medical office corridor. The office is accessible from Westwood, Bel Air, Brentwood, Century City, and Hollywood.

The clinical space is designed to support the practice's high-touch service model, with workflow organized around longer patient visits and unhurried care.

Care Philosophy

The practice operates with a clear identity:

• Physician-led decision making, including clinical pathway design
• Direct physician-to-patient relationships, including personal follow-up
• Evidence-based clinical care with openness to longevity and preventive approaches
• Refined patient experience, including time, communication, and presentation
• Cash-pay model that removes insurance-driven friction from clinical decisions

The practice is not a concierge or membership model. Patients pay per service, with structured care pathways available for those pursuing longer-term clinical goals such as hormone therapy and longevity.

Patient Base

• 13,000-plus patients in the active database
• Strong base of midlife and adult women, the natural referral source for the new women's health line
• Patients located primarily in Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood, Westwood, Century City, and surrounding Westside neighborhoods
• Reputation built over two decades of word-of-mouth, media exposure, and direct referrals

About the Founder

She is a Harvard Medical School graduate, board-certified in dermatology, and serves on the clinical faculty at the University of Southern California.

Growth Direction

The practice is actively expanding:

• New women's health service line, anchored by the founding gynecologist
• Functional medicine physician planned as the next clinical addition
• Continued development of structured care pathways across service lines
• Expanded research and academic engagement

The founding gynecologist enters at a meaningful point in the practice's evolution and will help define how women's health is delivered within the model.
