Dr. Wu and his colleagues are very attentive are kind, a good listener and very helpful. As for Dr. Wu himself he is these things but he is also very inquisitive at times and honest. He is exceptionally competent in his work and his field of study, quite ahead of some of my previous neurology doctors who have who have worked in the field for a very long time. He is constantly thinks of the best way forward and best alternates should they be needed. Should you not have ideal circumstances with getting a specialized physician or treatment he will personally help and train the person you choose if needed. He will continue to work closely with said person to be able to give you a personalized regimen. Thus I highly recommend him.
