Wu is the worst doctor I've ever seen. He has no compassion and inflated resume and skills. He failed to diagnose and treat one of my eyes over a period of several years, had zero interest in sending me for better care. His style is dismissive and offered very little in a serious eye condition. Stay away from him and his office like a plague. read more

Dr. Wu was on the list of preferred providers and when I schedule my visit for dry eyes & renewal of my eye drop prescription, I check with the receptionist who assured me my insurance was accepted. During the visit, Dr. Wu told me that he doesn't accept my insurance, but luckily agreed to for my one visit. Dr. Wu refused to order my dry eye drops, saying that he had never heard of Meibo, which was ordered by my opthalmologists before and after Dr. Wu. It is a commonly prescribed drop for dry eyes. After my eye exam, he said that I had very narrow angles, which could results in an emergency pressure build up in the eye, and that I needed surgery to fix this. I thought that odd, because I have been seeing ophthalmologists for about 20 years before this, and none of them had given me this diagnosis. I had a second opinion today, and the opthalmologist said that my eye pressures were perfect and my angles were "wide open," leaving me with ZERO risk of angle closure and NO NEED FOR SURGERY. In summation, Dr. Wu's bedside manner was rude, refused to treat my dry eyes and tried to sell me unneeded surgery. Patient Beware! read more

Wr. Wu's office copied an incorrect prescription for my glasses. I took that prescription to Target where my insurance was accepted. Immediately, I noticed the prescription was incorrect so I called Dr. Wu's office. I called three more times. Finally, they did get back to me but I missed the call. I gave up and made an appointment. They refused to reimburse me to have the prescription corrected. They wanted to see me and have my prescription re-written. I'm not stupid. If Dr. Wu's office gives me a new prescription, Target won't make the glasses again without me having to pay. After all it wasn't Target's fault the prescription was copied incorrectly. I realize Dr. Wu wants his patients to buy glasses from him but his selection is very small and a little out of date. To prove it, there was a live spider crawling on the glasses in the display case. read more

Dr. Wu made me feel bad for having the reflex to blink a few times when an instrument touched my eyeball. The optician was not there so I could not get frames. I filled out an online form before my visit to save time on paperwork when I arrived. They didn't have any of that information when I arrived, so who did I send my social security number to? read more

I contacted Dr. Wu's office because I thought something had entered my eye and the pain was very severe. Dr. Wu agreed to see me within 30 minutes even though I was not a patient. There were several patients ahead of me, so one of the assistants gave me an eye drop to numb the pain. This helped immensely. Dr. Wu was able to expertly and quickly diagnose my situation. It was not at all what I thought but a protective layer around the cornea which had come loose and caused the pain. Dr. wu gave me eye drops and another appointment to make sure everything was OK. Thank you to Dr. Wu for your expertise and kindness, as well as the caring attitude of the staff. read more

I spent a lifetime being very to extremely near-sighted. From the time I was 8 until just before I turned 67 in February 2022, I relied upon a series of quarter-inch thick eyeglasses to see more that a few feet away. When I developed cataracts in both eyes and was unable to drive at night, I had the good fortune of being sent to Dr. Wu. He removed the cataracts and implanted a new lens in each of my eyes. Wow! I now have 20/20 vision and see better than at any time in my life. These results are remarkable and Dr. Wu is amazing! I regret not having a third eye for Dr. Wu to work on! read more

Dr Wilson Wu provides caring, excellent and expert medical care. I expected that, since so many of my acqfriends recommended him. The first thing I noticed last year when I walked in the office, was how professional the staff looked and were interacting with patients. Dr. Wu did the eye exams and explained my results in a clearly and easily understood manner. I thought, "This guy is terrific!" Having lived in various parts of the US, I've been to about 20 different practitioners over my many years. This one is a keeper. Then, this month, I had what I thought was an eye emergency. Dr. Wu called back right away after I left a message with his answering service. After sharing my sudden onset symptoms, Dr. Wu explained the phenomena that I was experiencing, that it was a normal part of aging. He let me know that if I experienced any one of a list of symptoms that he named, to call back. He also stated that he would call me the next morning to check on me. Later that evening, I experienced a very unsettling symptom and called Dr. Wu again. Dr. Wu saw me in the office right away and did a thorough exam. He reassured me that my retina was not detaching. I felt very well cared for and able to get some peaceful rest that night. My relative drove me home from the appointment. I had a follow-up appointment six days later, and other than extra floaters, all was well. Another follow-up appointment is scheduled. Thank you for your help Dr. Wu! read more

Dr. Wu is one of the most consummate and intelligent professionals I have ever met!! A great optomologist, he not only discovered an abnormal (behind the eye) mass that was a benign brain tumor for my husband when doing an eye exam, but he has always done a great great job for our annual checkups!! He is serious minded, a Phd, and has a nice demeanor. He is not overly chatty, he asks the questions needed for the appt. and answers whatever you need as a client. In addition, his staff is fantastic and pleasant, efficient and professional. The office is clean and updated. The eyeglass section is great. I highly recommend Dr. Wu and his team!! read more

Dr Wu is an extremely competent and professional PHD eye doctor. One of the things I appreciate most is that he clearly respects his patients' time and runs a very efficient practice. His staff are very well trained and capable, and everyone is super nice and professional. read more

I started seeing Dr. Wu many years ago because I wanted lasik surgery and had an eye condition that was getting in the way. I had been treated previously by another respected lasik surgeon in Santa Barbara who gave up on me after a few weeks and told me I would probably never have lasik surgery. Not only did Dr. Wu get my condition under control, but I did indeed have lasik surgery. It's the best thing I ever did for myself. I had such poor vision and it opened up another world to me. That was 13 years ago and I still have 20/20 vision! I have since moved out of state, but I will always be grateful to Dr. Wu. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Wu for at least 15 years, ever since I woke up blind in my right eye from iritis. It took about a month to clear up with prednisone eye drops every half hour around the clock and an eye ointment at night. Dr. Wu is friendly and incredibly competent! He does my yearly eye exam and eyeglass prescription, and most recently removed cataracts from both my eyes. Fantastic guy. And his office staff are also great, especially compared to the creeps I've run into in other doctors' offices around town.... read more

Dr. Rose office offers the most highly educated and experienced that I care. I've been going for 10 years and trust this office and Dr. Will with all and every issue with my vision. read more

Seems like a good eye doctor, but his attitude toward the common person is less then desirable. I would ask questions and he would basically brush me off, he after all is smarter then I seeing he is a doctor and I am not. Never got an answer to any of my questions, and when I suggested a problem/solution, I was wrong. I think if he treated people as equals he would be a much better doctor. read more

Dr. Wu is an excellent physician. I have seen him for regular eye exams as well as issues with chronic dry eyes. He was also able to correct diagnose my mother's eye condition which had gone undiagnosed by several prior ophthalmologists. I recommend him often to my own patients and peers. read more

I would agree with the previous reviewer. Do not use his services!! As a new patient I expected some interest shown in me as a new client. Nothing! He was so rude and actually got mad with me for something I said. Firstly, he should not assume every new person that walks in by the door knows how the process works. If he actually had a conversation with me we would have avoided his flare up! The worst optometrist I have ever been to. I will not go back. read more
