Theodore Wu, MD, PhD

Dr. Wu is, without doubt, one of the top ophthalmologists in the US! He is professional, kind, thorough, and caring. In addition, I write to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent care I received during my cataract removal procedure from Dr. Wu and his staff. I was extremely anxious beforehand, but every member of Dr. Wu's team was reassuring and helped put me at ease. From the moment I arrived and checked in, I was treated with warmth, kindness, and professionalism. Each staff member demonstrated genuine care—from thoughtfully covering me with a warm blanket (twice!) to clearly explaining every step of the process in a calm and comforting manner.

I have had two cataract surgeries with Dr. Wu and have had the best possible result. He is very professional and yet totally caring about my experience. He called me the night of my surgery to see that I was okay and not it pain. I would highly recommend him without reservation.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Theodore Wu for several years. I’ve always been treated like I was his only patient that day! He always explains what’s going on with my eyes and uses words that I understand. His staff are is amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and spends time with me. I recently had cataracts removed from both eyes. Everything was explained to me and the procedure went great, the recovery was smooth with no complications. Virginia Eye Institute outpatient surgery staff is also amazing!!!! I have recommended Dr Wu and his office staff to my friends and colleagues.

I have been with Dr Wu for years and he anticipated that I would require cataract surgery We agreed on what stage it would be appropriate for the surgery. He educated me on what to expect and gave me options which may explain why I am very happy with the results.

I had my LASIK surgery a little over a year ago, and it was the best decision I could have made. I was nervous about the procedure, worried that it wouldn't go well, but from my very first appointment with the doctor, I felt confident; I knew I was in good hands. He and his team made sure everything was done right; the surgery took only minutes, and the moment I walked out, my vision was completely different. The recovery was easy, and my eyes have been at 100% ever since. I wholeheartedly recommend the doctor and his team. Thank you.

I was new to the area but time for my annual eye exam. I knew that cataracts were forming but was not expecting to schedule surgery. Dr Wu is very pleasont, explains everything well, and is open to questions. He and his office called the day of surgery to see how I was afterwards. Overall a pleasnt experience.

Dr. Wu recently performed cataract surgery on both eyes. I have recovered nicely and my vision is greatly improved to the point I only need OTC readers. Dr. Wu and his staff are very professional, knowledgeable and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Wu for anyone needing an ophthalmologist.

I have been a patient of Dr Wu for 3 years; I am 2 years post cataract removal by Dr Wu. Dr Wu is always very personable and though I know he has a very busy schedule, I never feel rushed by him or his staff. He is very thorough and does an excellent job of answering questions and explaining conditions and procedures. Dr Wu is very careful and skilled at cataract surgery - I trust him implicitly and have referred multiple friends to him if they are considering cataract surgery.

Dr. Wu and his staff were fantastic as I underwent cataract surgery on both eyes. My vision is 20/20 now, and I am so thrilled. It did take at least 4 weeks for both eyes to feel back to normal (not scratchy or sensitive), but I would highly recommend Dr. Wu should you need this surgery.

DR, Wu is very knowledgeable, careful, accurate, caring and friendly. I like to work with him. He did two cataract surgeries with excellent care and results. He takes well care of his patients and called the evening of the surgery day to check your well being. I was impressed.
