Old age has required both of my shoulders to be replaced. Dr. Wu was very thorough in his explanation of the surgery and answered all my questions. His demeanor is more like an internal medicine doctor than that of a surgeon which allowed me to relax and gain confidence in him. I am no longer anxious about having the surgeries.

Dr. Wu is a surgeon with a heart! I feel like he cares about my full recovery as much as I do. He has me believing that in time I will be restored to full function, all the while taking into consideration my concerns and fears. He just seems so much more caring than many surgeons I have known and worked with. The PT staff also is above stellar, and the reason I drive 45 miles 3 times a week for this recovery!

He is not only a Great surgeon but a remarkable man. Operated on my wrist and I later developed complications because an urgent care Dr prescribed prednisone post op. He was there every step of the way from a second surgery to a weeklong stay in hospital. He is compassionate and knowledgeable and takes his time with patients to make sure there is complete understanding. I will continue seeing him for the numerous issues RA has bestowed upon me. I highly recommend Dr Wu
