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.

I had double rotator cuff surgery and could not be happier with the results. From surgery and through the months of recovery Dr. Wusu and his staff were extremely helpful and thorough.

Amazing Provider!
Absolutely fantastic surgeon! Super personable, knowledgeable, and friendly. The diagnosis-surgery-recovery process was so streamlined and simple, and I finally got relief after a decade of loving in pain. Highly recommend!

Dr. Wusu was my son's surgeon. He is so personable and very professional. Dr. Wusu did an excellent job explaining the procedure to my son which left him with no fear. He believed Dr. Wusu was going to get him back to 100% and he did. His recovery was excellent. If you are looking for a surgeon who genuinely cares about his patients, then Dr. Wusu is the perfect person! I highly recommend him!

Doctor Wusu did an awesome job repairing a previous injury... I had the opportunity to watch a talented surgeon repair & stitch the injury on my forearm - all while having a light-hearted humorious conversation. Very comfortably treated and resolved! Highly recommend!

TAC - Arm Surgical Repair – Dec 10, 2021
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Wusu?
Dr. Wusu was very thorough and spent plenty of time with me explaining everything. He put the x-rays and MRI up on screen to show me and explain what he saw. I like that he goes for conservative therapy and not straight to surgery like some drs. do. The only thing was that I had to wait an hour to see him. He did not say, I am sorry you had to wait. That would have been nice.

I was extremely grateful to have been given Dr. Wusu as my orthopedic surgeon. He was as considerate about getting to know me as he was about my medical condition. He was extraordinarily efficient as he demonstrated by examining my injuries simultaneously while transcribing medical terminology. He made me understand in detail exactly what was going to happen before and after surgery. My post-operation experience was just as satisfying as the pre-operation. I would not waste your time looking for a doctor more diligent and knowledgeable in his expertise. He is not only a doctor he is a father a husband and an athlete who more than understands sports injuries and what it takes to recover from them.

Dr. Wusu is amazing. As a doctor who had originally played football and was a college decathlete he was not just skilled at diagnosing why my teenage son was having severe back pain but also very strategic about how to get him back into Track and field competition without having to miss too much of the season. And when he watched a video of my son doing the long jump to see whether his landing style was what was hurting his back, he also gave him some valuable coaching. His medical advice made a difference even within 24 hours. Anish Patel and the rest of Dr Wusu’s staff were also extremely accommodating and helpful. I can’t say enough about this practice.

Dr. Wusu was and is the BEST Dr in his field!! Took his time to explain surgical procedures, answered questions, and I love his sense of humor!!! Anish, his assistant was superb!! Very professional, very helpful; we couldn’t have asked for more. Anish would go far and beyond to ensured everything went well with paperwork, insurance, and explained every process. THANK YOU ANISH!! The receptionists were also so respectful and friendly!! Always greeted us with a good morning and asked how we were doing every time they saw us. GOD BLESS THEM!! This is truly a testament to the great work they do as a team!!! You all rock!!! I have recommended friends and people I don’t know to Dr. Wusu and his team, that’s how great they are! Keep up the awesome work guys! ?? Nelly and Andrew

Dr Wusu explained everything throughout the entire process of the preop, to the surgery, and the months of follow up for my son. It helped with our piece of mind that he had been through a couple of knee surgeries himself as a football player. He brought his own experience along with his medical knowledge. He is very positive. I would recommend him to anyone

Even though we’re cities apart, Dr. Wusu absolutely helped me, from a distance, when I wasn’t sure how to move forward while experiencing pain and waiting to see a local healthcare provider. Knowing his history as a serious athlete, dancer, and orthopedic professional, I felt comfortable in sharing details about my own ups and downs — since spine-related injuries can feel different by the day — and trusted his experience which spans disciplines and practices. In the interim, Dr. Wusu made himself available for conversation, offered insight about pain management, and proposed techniques for muscle relaxation. All in all, this reassurance me feel more at ease, which is so valuable in and of itself! Weeks later, he followed up to learn about my progress, and Dr. Wusu is a radiant, passionate person who truly does care.

I have seen Dr. Wusu 3 times for a problem on my foot. He listened to the symptoms and diagnosed the problem quickly and the medication and the exercises he recommended helped me heal fast. The staff was very understanding and friendly. I was comfortable dealing with all of them and I recommend Dr. Wusu without any reservation.

Dr Wusu , Anish , the ladies at the front office – May 24, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Wusu?
We had called on Thursday evening concerning my daughter breaking her wrist earlier that day. We were seen by D. Wusu the next morning at 7:30am, as they did not have an opening that day, but would squeeze us in if we arrive early. X-rays confirmed the broken wrist and were scheduled for surgery on Monday morning. Surgery went well, no complications. Cannot say enough good things about how we were treated. The office is clean and bright, staff very friendly and nobody made us feel rushed. They squeezed us in on Friday morning, yet we were treated like they blocked the whole day to answer any and all questions. This was the first time my daughter has broken anything and she was nervous. Dr. Wusu calmed her nerves, spoke to her to address her concerns. She fully trust him, as do I, to take care of you. Highly recommend.

Dr. Wusu was extremely thorough when evaluating my son for a problem that's been on-going for 3 years. He carefully watched him in his movements and noticed a slight variation and difference between right and left. I think we were lucky to have been seen by him. He actually listened to us. We would gladly recommend him to any child who might have a hip issue that is not as clear cut as some.
