Dr. Joseph Chung-Liang Wu, MD

I saw Dr. Wu about a knee injury and my experience with him was terrible. Not only did he fail to address my concerns, but there was no effort made to communicate with me.

My husband and I each saw Dr Wu on the same day for different ailments. I have two bad hips and my husband has a sizable medialmeniscus tear with a meniscal cyst. His advice for each of us was exactly the same. " While you're a candidate for surgery (insert name here) because you're only 50 and the joints wear out in 20-25 years I don't think we should perform surgery at this time." We were both stunned, thinking we're just supposed to live with horrible, debilitating pain until we are old enough?!? I've since seen another Dr who has made my hip replacement a priority as the joints are bone on bone. My husband saw another Dr and his knee replacement surgery will be scheduled when the COVID 19 crisis has subsided. His recommendation was outdated information and had we followed it we would have suffered needlessly until we reached some arbitrary age that Dr Wu felt we could be eligible. I've never felt so strongly about not recommending a physician.

ABSOLUTELY THE NICEST DOCTOR ON EARTH!! So Patient! So Thorough! So Smart!!! 10 thumbs up!!!!

Me and my husband decided to go to the yale walk in clinic on Devine street north haven on Friday am after having such horrible shoulder pain, upon arrival at the clinic everyone was so nice the nurse came in took X-rays and stated she was going to Call an ortho she told us to just wait and be patient, she came back and said that Dr Wu would see us right away. Upon arrival at his office we were treated very well and was taken to a room waited a few min and he came in to evaluate me, I was so relieved when he finally told me what I had and what I could possibly do for my symptoms. I highly recommend him to anyone what a great dr.

He and his office treated with respect and spent time to answer all my questions.

We seldom wait for an appointment and he is always amazingly prompt. His manner is casual and comfortable. He has treated both my wife and me, with excellent results and good follow through. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone needing orthopaedic surgery!

Dr Wu was awsome. He performed surgery on my shoulder for a torn labrum. My shoulder dosen't feel like had a surgery at all. He is a great Dr and a good man. When speaking with him you do not get the sense that he feels like he is better than you are (like most Doctors). He was awsome thats all I have to say and I woould have given him 5 stars if I could.

Dr. Wu took the time to listen to me and he answered all my questions. He is an excellent communicator & put me at ease. Although my office visits were short in duration, the time was sufficient for my needs - I never felt like I was being rushed through. I have recommended him to family members.

Dr. Wu is a very nice man and very personable. However, I felt he was dismissive of one of my injuries (I went to him with 2 nagging injuries I admittedly had ignored for too long). I was told to just adjust my arm/wrist to avoid wrist pain (that has not helped). When going to a follow up apptmt for my other injury, he barely examined me. When trying to find a new PT (their in-house PT is overscheduled and disorganized- they lost my file), he would not provide a 'script to a new PT even though I had seen him 3 weeks prior. When I tried to schedule a new apptmt, he wasn't available for almost a month. Not all of these issues are his fault, of course; this has just been disappointing and fruatrating overall.
