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.

Dr. Wu has been my parents' physician for many years. They are now in their late 80s. What I've appreciated most about him is how he has adapted his care to their changing priorities and changing realities. I would almost move to Bellingham to be able to work with a doctor this thoughtful, respectful, holistic, and...well, wise is the word that comes to mind.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Dr. Wu was my family doctor for 22 years. He always presented kind, caring, and compassionate service during that time. I moved from Bellingham and really miss him as a family doctor. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a family doctor who is very knowledgeable and highly respect by his colleagues on the medical community as well as his patients.

I asked another doctor who was the best doctor in Bellingham. They recommended Dr. Wu. My whole family has been with him for several years with only praise to offer. One of his associates could not diagnose a problem I had. I made a second appointment with Dr. Wu, who correctly diagnosed it. He is great!

About Me

care philosophy

My approach to care is simple. I want every part of my patient?s care to be as I would want it for my own family. My interest is in whatever my patients are working on, so I don?t have an area of special interest within family medicine.

biography

I grew up in Connecticut, Japan, and Missouri, the youngest of four children. My parents were academics in art history, botany and writing. I got my undergraduate degree at Harvard College studying social anthropology, with no plans to go into...read more
