Review for Dr. Jolson
I had my first visit with Dr Wu this week. The office staff, Nurses, and Dr Wu are absolutely amazing. Everyone showed the greatest respect and compassion. Dr Wu is very thorough, he took his time with me and really listened. We came up with a plan that he individualized to me and my specific issue....

Dr. Skidmore is absolutely the best around, I would recommend him to anyone having severe pain and in need of surgery after exhausting all other options which is what he does. He also did my aunts surgery. I’d give him 10 stars if I could.
