After spending most of her life in Virginia, Dr. Wu chose to experience a different part of the country for her post-graduate training.

After several years away, she returned to Northern Virginia to be closer to family and friends.

Her clinical interests include inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), liver disorders, and esophageal conditions such as GERD and swallowing difficulties. She is also deeply committed to preventive health maintenance, specifically colorectal cancer screening.

Outside the office, Dr. Wu and her husband are self-proclaimed "foodies" who enjoy exploring new restaurants and cooking at home. A loyal Red Sox fan, she developed her love for the team while living in Boston’s Fenway neighborhood. She is also a tennis enthusiast whose dream is to attend all four Grand Slam tournaments. Most importantly, she treasures time spent with her husband and their son.
