More About Dr. Eric Wu

A graduate of Gunn High School in Palo Alto, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Biochemistry from the University of California, San Diego. I had a one-year hiatus working as a plant molecular biology research assistant at the Salk Institute in La Jolla before going to dental school at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. My clinical training included a one-month stint at Guy's Kings St. Thomas Medical/Dental College in London, England. After graduating from Penn in 2000, I did a one-year Advanced Education General Dentistry residency at the University of California, Los Angeles, where I treated complex interdisciplinary cases and learned a lot on occlusion, aesthetics and how an ideal "bite" should be. Upon finishing that program, I worked as a general dentist for one year in Los Angeles in a cosmetic dental practice. I did my orthodontic residency at the University of Pittsburgh. I am a member of the American Dental Association, California Dental Association, and the Midpeninsula Dental Society. I am a certified Invisalign provider. I enjoy keeping up to date with the latest technology and treatments and attend continuing education courses on a regular basis. I am fluent in Mandarin Chinese as well as being proficient in German. In my spare time, I enjoy mountain climbing, hiking, golfing in the Bay Area, and I love to travel.
