Cut the appointment short and didn’t listen well to concerns.
Was unprofessional told him I needed Ada and nurse filled out form for wrong thing when I clearly told them I do not need that form will not be going back
Verified patient
Dr. Wu was very quick to assess me as having no rheumatology issues but couldn't point me in the direction of where to look for answers next. He kept repeating "from a rheumatology-standpoint..." I was fine, which is not helpful when you are seeking answers and guidance because you're concerned about your health. A suggestion of what else may be the cause of my pain or who to consult next would have been more helpful than the repetitive response he provided - talking to me as if I did not hear or understand him the first time he said he couldn't provide any knowledge beyond his very specific medical knowledge
