Professional statement
Dr. Wu is a Harvard-trained board-certified psychiatrist and instructor at Harvard Medical School and McLean Hospital. He has experience working with diagnostically complex patients both in private practice and in high acuity care settings including residential treatment and inpatient settings for detoxification and psychiatric stabilization. He aims to provide individualized medication and therapeutic treatment for his patients to maximize their well-being. He also provides second-opinion psychiatric consultations.
Regardless of diagnosis, Dr. Wu strives to be available with timely appointments with patients if needed during difficult periods of their lives to meet their needs. He enjoys working with young professionals and entrepreneurs experiencing career burnout and exploring the potential psychiatric overlap with their current conditions.
Dr. Wu understands that psychiatric care can be complicated and that a one-size-fits-all approach does not suit everyone. He is experienced with standard evidence-based treatments for psychiatric conditions, and also understands the need to go beyond standard care if needed for his patients given their unique circumstances.
Dr. Wu has both in-person availability in Belmont, MA and also offers telehealth appointments.
