About Dr. James Wu

Originally from Canada, Dr. James Wu graduated from the University of Toronto in 1992 and then went on to Boston University and Boston Medical Center to complete his specialty surgical training in oral and maxillofacial surgery in 1997. Dr. Wu is a Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon in the U.S. and Canada, and since completion of his specialty training, he has been a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at Boston University School of Dental Medicine.

In addition to being board certified with the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine, Dr. Wu is certified in Plant Based Nutrition from eCornell and the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies. He is also a NESTA-certified Lifestyle and Weight Management Specialist.

Dr. Wu has a particular interest in facial and aesthetic services, performing many reconstructive surgeries due to facial trauma as well as corrective facial and jaw surgeries in his almost 30 years of surgical practice. His interest evolved with time from a surgical approach to a more minimally invasive, natural, and holistic approach to health and wellness that many people desire today.

His interest-turned-passion is what led him to establish Solace Wellness Center & Medspa, where he is the Clinical Director and owner. He wants to help his patients and guests see that health is affected by a multitude of factors, many of which are now known to be interrelated. Dr. Wu wants to emphasize the importance of balance in our lives and why nurturing physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness is so important to achieving optimal health.
