Vascular Surgeon

Mr Michael Wu

Vascular Surgeon

Philosophy

Dr Wu is dedicated to providing his patients with expert diagnoses, treatment and management of their conditions. Where appropriate, he is committed to using minimally invasive techniques. He is also dedicated to patient-focused care and to providing the time for his patients to fully understand their condition and the required treatment.

Dr Wu understands the importance of keeping referring doctors informed about their patients’ care. He usually sees new patients within 1-2 weeks and will provide timely communication of any treatment plans.

Education and Experience

Dr Wu completed his medical training at Flinders University in 2002. His interest in vascular disease led him to vascular and endovascular surgery. He undertook further training in Australia (in Melbourne, Sydney and Geelong) and England (at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge) to become a specialist Vascular Surgeon. He also completed extra training in renal access and renal transplant surgery.

As part of his training, Dr Wu also undertook research in diabetic arterial disease. This research was partly funded by scholarships from the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia (NHMRC) and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons.

Dr Wu received his Fellowship in Vascular Surgery from the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in 2014. He has public appointments at Monash Medical Centre (Clayton), Footscray Hospital and Dandenong Hospital and is Supervisor of Vascular Training at Monash Health.
