If there is anything you take away from this review, let it be this: Dr. Wu is the most phenomenal acupuncturist and hormone specialist that I have ever met, and if you struggle with any sort of thyroid/PCOS issue (or issues around conception, though I cannot personally speak to that!), and want to see some improvement in a gentle, holistic way, let Dr. Wu be your first stop.
I found Dr. Wu sometime late last year, overwhelmed with symptoms of hormone imbalance, and sick of doctors trying to push birth control as the end all be all instead of figuring out the root cause of what was going on. After about a month of consistent treatment, these symptoms were noticeably better. I’ll spare you Yelpers all the details (feel free to message me though if you’re in this same boat and have any specific questions!), but for the first time in about a year, I finally felt that wellness and feeling familiar and peaceful again in my own body were within my reach.
Dr. Wu is professional, knowledgeable, and straightforward with his care. Scheduling is easily done online via his website, and there’s ample parking nearby at the tennis center. Feel free to bring in any lab work that you may have, as Dr. Wu can review it and further tailor your care to your needs.
Like some other Yelpers have mentioned, acupuncture is not a one-time thing. You really have to be committed to going for several sessions. Dr. Wu recommended that I come in three times a week, but I knew that financially and scheduling-wise, I could only go twice weekly. Even so, I still was able to see improvements! So be patient, and just wait for Dr. Wu to work his magic (which is really not magical at all, but rather a centuries old component of traditional Chinese medicine)!
