About

Dr. Wu has developed expertise in treating both neurologic and orthopedic conditions with clinical experience spanning outpatient rehabilitation and home care.

During her seven years at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), she served as an active interdisciplinary team member at the MGH Huntington's Clinic and as adjunct faculty for MGH's Neurologic Physical Therapy Residency. Driven by a passion for healthcare improvement, Cecilia pursued a Master of Public Health at The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy & Clinical Practice, focusing on implementation science and course design.

Her academic training translated directly to practice when she developed and implemented vestibular training for home health clinicians—a program she later expanded to train multiple cohorts at MGBHC that continues today.
