Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Positive first visit!
Appreciated the fact that he did small diagrams to show me the areas that were the problems. He went over my MRI with me, which was really neat to see and be walked through. He was patient with me and I feel like he spent actual time with me discussing things. Thank you!

Caring and professional
Dr. Wu is very understanding and caring, and takes the time to ask questions and make sure I am comfortable and know the plan. He makes sure to ask questions as well as listen. He knows what he is doing, and he displays that through actions and words.

Dr. Wu is Fantastic!
We found Dr. Wu in 2023 when my teenage son almost cut his thumb off, cutting through a tendon and part of the bone. Dr. Wu was able to see us reasonably quickly between his multiple locations and my son had surgery within a week. Follow up was great. Dr. Wu always takes the time to answer all of our questions and has a great report with both my teenage son and myself. We have been back to him multiple times since for broken fingers or shoulder issues. He’s so knowledgable and helpful!

Dr. Wu was very concerned about my injury and helpful in explaining things. Even to the point of drawing out what was wrong and what was happening. In detail he explained everything to where I really had no questions. I would recommend him to anyone.

Excellent experience with Dr. Wu
I just completed hand surgery with Dr. Wu. The surgery went well, but what I found most exceptional about him are his excellent communication skills. In my office appointment before the surgery he explained everything thoroughly, took me through it step-by-step, and made sure I had enough time to ask whatever questions I had. On the day of the surgery , he came in before and went through the surgery again to make sure I was clear. He is cordial and takes the necessary time, but stays focused on the task at hand. I would highly recommend him. My surgery went well and I am now in PT in his office. One of the best doctors I’ve interacted with.

Dr. Wu was great!
Dr. Wu was soft spoken, quite down to earth, readily explained what was happening and what my treatment option are. He fully understood the other issues impacting my condition, that doesn't always happen, and offered treatment approaches that took all of that into account. I plan to go back to see him again!

Absolutely wonderful doctor
I am 12 days out of a complete shoulder replacement. Dr. Wu’s care and attention has made my recovery much speedier than it might have been. I can’t say enough good about Dr. Wu. Unlike so many docs today, he actually takes the time to pay attention and get to know his patients. I am not healed yet, but I am sure with Dr. Wu’s care, I will be as good as I can be Thanks Dr Wu. I owe you a bushel of apples.
