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.

My experience with Dr. Wu and my colonoscopy/endo was wonderful. He was highly recommended to me, and he was quite impressive. He listened to my concerns, gastro history, and gave advice and suggestions. I would recommend and will to all that I know. Thanks so much Dr. Wu and your staff, who were also quite caring and wonderful. I am wanting to speak with him and wonder how to go about that. ?? I believe I can. set up a CARLE password and such online. Is that correct? Thanks so much. Rose M. Tuerk

Dr. Wu explained the procedure pre-operative, he was there in the OR and immediately after. Findings were shared with me post-operative. Comforting that the procedure was quick and thorough .

Excellent care!!!
Dr. Scott Wu and his staff were AMAZING!!!! Not that I get excited about having a colonoscopy, and definitely not the prep!! But this staff could not have been better from the time I entered to the moment they wheeled me to my car- the experience was second to none! I was nervous but the staff was so kind. Everyone was smiling and helpful throughout. I would highly recommend Dr. Wu and his staff!!

Had a good visit with Dr Wu, but on my after visit they must have got me confused with another person. Had me way over weight and said we had talked about a rigid weight loss plan, which we didn’t talk about. I’m 6’1”and 197#

This doctor does not listen to his patients. I went in telling him I wanted off PPIs because of their connection to osteoporosis and would like to be evaluated for surgery for my gerd. His response let’s double the PPIs. When I insisted on the endoscopy required for the surgery he would only do it if I had a colonoscopy (which I just had a normal one last year and don’t need.
