    I told my sister today how knowledgeable and experienced my physician was -looking up the tour Itinerary for specific geographic locations, and weighing all the data In accordance with cdc reccos, Including my possible (but not solidly known- in some cases)vaccination history, my opinions, duration of trip, cost/risk/benefits, and then presenting me with options. I'm very grateful for this doctor's knowledge, research and communication skills

    Dr. Wu and his assistant were a joy to have around! I enjoy speaking to them and felt very comfortable and relaxed in their presence. It was even fun and we had plenty of laughs! Dr. Wu did an amazing job at explaining and giving me my options. He did not force me to do anything and took the time to answer any questions, especially regarding finances, and even helping me come to my decision on what shots I would take. He was extremely helpful and a blessing! His assistant is in good hands and I could tell he was just as attentive to my care. If I ever had to come back to Emory, will definitely seek to have Dr. Wu as my care provider again. I would recommend him to others as well. Thank you Dr. Wu and your assistant for my care!

    Emory Travel Clinic always exceeds expectations. I rely on them for travel advice and vaccines every time I take a trip and they never fail to deliver quality service. Doctors are well informed and take time to explain all of my options and go over everything I need to be aware of for each country I visit.
