03/03/2026

I waited two see Dr Wu bc he was highly recommended but at the time he didn’t take my insurance. It was well worth the wait💕

02/26/2026

Dr. Wu and his team are very professional and at the same time very personable creating an atmosphere of calm and confidence. I can tell from the other patients that they are also very happy and grateful for the way we are treated and helped. It is very reassuring to feel their confidence in Dr. Wu and his wonderful team.

02/26/2026

Very good @ what he does!

It is always a pleasure to be treated by Dr Wu! Any pain or rehabilitative issues we’ve had are treated &/or solved by his expertise & knowledge! We actually moved back to Fort Lauderdale from hours away to continue being treated by him!

Dr. Paul Wu is extremely professional in his field of work and treatment. The best care I have had for Lumbar Spine treatment.

02/24/2026

Great doctor

02/19/2026

If you had an 11 in the rankings, I would have given him that. As it was, I could only give him a 10

02/18/2026

Dr Wu is great! He tries different techniques to get rid of my pain. My neck feels so much better.

02/17/2026

You may wait a little longer for Dr Wu to see you but the reason is that he listens to every patient carefully and takes the time to assess what treatment is needed and explain the treatment and options. He then asks if you have questions and will answer whatever questions you have.

Dr Wu is the best!

02/02/2026

Aside from a very long wait to see him, over an hour and a half, after arriving 30 minutes early for my appointment, it was an excellent visit and well worth the wait.

02/02/2026

The assistants are very knowledgeable. Dr. Wu was excellent, and the entire procedure only took 15 minutes or so.

01/28/2026

Professional Comforting Informative

01/27/2026

Dr. Wu is a dependable, competent and reliable physician whom I trust. I have already recommended several other patients to him.

01/26/2026

Very good customer service and excellent listening skills.

01/26/2026

My experience with this provider has been positive and supportive. The primary challenge has not been the care itself, but rather an insurance inconsistency that created delays in accessing services. This appears to be a coverage and authorization issue rather than a reflection of the provider’s quality, professionalism, or commitment to care. I appreciate the provider’s efforts to navigate these barriers and remain focused on my well-being despite circumstances outside their control.

01/22/2026

Great customer service skills

01/22/2026

01/19/2026

I am so happy to have Dr. Wu taking care of me. I know he will do his best to help me get rid of this pain that I've had for several years now. He listens and answers my questions in a way that I can understand.

01/15/2026

ALL OK!

01/15/2026

Dr. Wu always explains so I can understand.

Good Doc.

12/02/2025

I feel he cares, he listens and want the best for me.

11/26/2025

Looking forward to results of an MRI TO learn if my lower back can get some relief.

11/26/2025

The guy that taps on your foot during neck injections for distraction is excellent! He should be rewarded! It works; it keeps your mind off that BIG needle. Great idea that should always be available!!

11/26/2025

God Bless him.

11/19/2025

Dr Wu is a true professional. My very first visit was a breath of fresh air. As a pain managment patient its been and will continue to be a journey. Its so very important to feel that your Dr is on your side and does his best to understand pain and is helping me deal with my condition. Thank you Dr Wu and team

11/12/2025

Dr. Wu was so kind and explained everything so I could understand. Thank you Dr. Wu for easing my concerns.

11/12/2025

I will not go to any other doctor. He is the best

11/11/2025

There is nothing I can find that is wrong with this specific doctor. The practice, the paperwork, and the staff all project a typical pain management clinic that thinks every person walking in is a junkie or seeking drugs. My first visit with the doctor was to feel him out. He was pleasant and helpful. I've had the procedure that is supposed to help. Hopefully it works. If not, and there is no other alternative to help, I'm finished.

11/06/2025

Dr. Wu & all of his staff are very professional, courteous, & helpful.

11/04/2025

Exceptional!

10/29/2025

Dr Wu and attending team consistently monitored my level of comfort and care.

10/28/2025

Dr. Wu is very talented and dedicated. Someone needs to manage and train his team/support staff so the phones are covered during working hours, calls and messages are returned timely and there is a sense of urgency to address patient concerns and questions. This is especially true for someone who is a nurse.

10/28/2025

I had to wait 1 hour to see Dr. Wu. Otherwise all was good.

10/27/2025

They need to address the check-in/check-out procedures, and perhaps let the patients know when the doctor is running a little late!

10/23/2025

I appreciate that Dr. Wu listened to my problem pains and came up with a plan to address and hopefully my pain.

10/22/2025

I like the way he would communicate with me during the procedure. Made me relax a little more.

10/22/2025

Dr Wu is a very caring individual. He listens carefully to what I have to say. I have many issues, and he takes everything into consideration instead of zoning in on only one issue

10/22/2025

AWESOME MD....SO COMPASSIONATE AND EXCELLENT LISTENER...I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DR. WU FOR MORE THAN 13 YEARS

08/18/2025

Given all of the history, documents and personal information I had assembled for my initial visit, I thought that the Telehealth conference would have gone more smoothly, and that the team would have gone over the options and explained why the final decision was the best one. I have confidence in Dr. Wu's skills. I think he is careful, thoughtful and conservative. We plan to go ahead with the MILD procedure, and I am waiting to hear about the schedule.

08/06/2025

Dr Wu and his staff was very professional and attentive to my concerns...
