Dr. Wu Zhuge, MD

Finding out I needed cervical surgery was very scary but Dr. Zhuge and his staff made me feel very confident. I knew that I didn't want to continue in the pain and discomfort I was in so I had to put my trust in their knowledge and care. I don't regret it. Two weeks in, the pain is mostly gone from the surgery itself and there are no symptoms of what I was experiencing before they replaced the discs and did the fusion. I am looking forward to my new lease on adventure. Thank you, Dr. Zhuge. I appreciate your professionalism and care. And, Trish has the sweetest disposition every single time I see her. Unlike most offices, I look forward to coming here.

Doctor very knowledgeable. Looks thoroughly at tests and pinpoints problem/s before your visit and is prepared. Precise regarding what needs to be done. If he does surgery, do things exactly as he outlines and you can not get better outcome elsewhere I feel. May take time to completely heal his way. Be prepared. But I feel we are very fortunate to have his quality in our area!

Dr. Wu Zhuge and his entire staff are the most pleasant and professional staff I've ever met. I suffered with neck pain for 2 months I can't even hold a pen. The pain is pinching going down thru my right arm. Waking up in the middle of the night walking around with the pinched nerve, heavy medication like Hydrocodone, Tramadol, lordtap pain kikler didn't help me much. I am so lucky got referred to Dr Wu Zhuge, after the MRI he was very concerned and know exactly what to do. I feel a release the pain is lift after awake from the surgery room. You did fantastic work on my neck, everything couldn't have been any better.

Dr. Z & Trish Harvey have been so kind and did fantastic work on my neck, everything couldn't have been any better

In 2011 Dr. Wu Zhuge did my back sergury, he make sure my self and family knew what he was going to do, and of all after care needed. He was very concerned with the after care and making sure I recovered fully. Sadly he transferred to another state (surgery was done in WA) otherwise I would have had him also do my neck surgery. I wish I could afford to bring him back to WA so he could fix a new problem with my back or that I could afford to see him in FL. My husbend and I have nothing but high praise for the work he has done on my back and if begging would do any good I would beg to have him back. He is the best surgon I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

I feel really comfortable with Dr. Zhuge, I'm looking forward to getting better

Dr. Zhuge performed spinal surgery on my husband, and on an emergency basis. My husband went in for an MRI after a nasty fall and within a few hours, we were in Zhuge’s office being told he needed surgery immediately to correct the disk fragmentation and herniation he sustained after the fall. It was terrifying, but he did an excellent job, as did his entire staff. My husband regained bladder and leg function, thank God, because he had a 50% chance of losing it forever. Thank you, Dr. Zhuge! ~the Galligans

Dr. Wu Zhuge and his intire staff are the most pleasant and professional staff I've ever met. I suffered with lower back pain for years before referred to Dr Wu Zhuge.I Had L5-S1 fusion Dec 19 2018 and it's been a great recovery since very little pain and healing great. I would highly recommend Dr Wu Zhuge and his staff to anyone.

I would not recommend this Dr.!!!

Dr. Zhuge and his staff are awesome caregivers! I had lower back surgery and I feel better than I have in years... should have done it sooner.

At 70 years of age I had a lumbar disk herniate onto my sciatica nerve which caused excruciating pain and all but paralyzed my left leg.  Dr. Zhuge performed surgery to remove the hernia and stabilize the disk.  Immediately after the surgery the leg pain was completely eliminated and was weak but useful again.  After a month there was virtually no pain from the surgery site except when sitting down and getting up, otherwise I was comfortable and the leg was much stronger.  Now at my 90 day check-up, there is no pain and hasn't been any for several weeks.  I feel I am pretty much able to do whatever I want except for the initial limitations of not lifting heavy weights and avoiding any activity that exerts any torque on the spine until the fusion becomes fully integrated with the other disks.  I feel great but have the same physical restrictions for a while longer   Dr. Zhuge has been terrific from the very beginning.  Everyone comments on how well I am doing and I owe a great deal of credit and praise to Dr. Zhuge for his skill as a surgeon for that. 

He is very sympathetic, gentle, and kind. He has pinpointed the problem with my back in just a few visits, where others have not been able to in 3 years.

I am very impressed with how he treats his patients. He is a great surgeon. I am very lucky to have him as a doctor!

Dr. Zhuge is a quiet man and very polite. He listened to my complaint and request for a cortizone injection. He was the first doctor to take spine xrays that really showed the extent of my back injuries and had another post surgery MRI done to see if there were any major changes in my spine. After carefully examining MRI and Xrays he believed that an injection was an appropriate course of action. They were prompt in scheduling the injection and when I went to the office surgery center everyone was very professional. I felt no pain with the injection and remained pain free for almost a year. I would go back to him in a heartbeat if my new insurance would cover his care, but unfortunately he is not in my plan.

Dr. Zhuge was the first to correctly diagnose the most painful aspect of my back problem after I had it for years and years - a slip disc.

I have one word for this office "ghetto" This dr. didnt do a thorough exam and didnt seem to know or care what was causing my pain and didnt offer any therapy medication or anything. I felt like a welfare patient. I have good insurance. Dont go there.

Dr. Zhuge is an efficient doctor, very caring and helpful. My insurance only approved 3 visits and when they were over, he called me to see how I was doing every few weeks. He was instrumental in getting the insurance to approve another 5 visits so we could continue treatment. Definitely recommend.

I have seen Dr. Zhuge three times now and each time he and his staff have been very polite and courteous. The nurse that assists him in the surgery room(can't remember his name) keeps you at ease during the procedure by engaging you conversations. And I always look forward to seeing his Nurse Practioner (very funny). Although we have not quite figured out what the exact problem is (only been there for the procedure twice now)I feel confident that Dr. Zhuge will find it.

very good doctor very trustworthy
