"Dr. Wood repaired my daughter’s ACL and Meniscus after a sport related injury. He showed genuine concern and compassion toward her. Such an injury can be very devastating for the parent and athlete alike. Dr. Wood was accessible and was available to answer all of our questions with researched based data and information before and after her surgery. She is beginning to transition back to playing sports and she feels great confidence in her repair-no pain with great movement. We are thankful to God for Dr. Wood."

"Dr. Wood performed an ACL reconstruction on our 13-year-old daughter, and we feel extremely blessed to have gone through this very scary ordeal with him by our side.  Dr. Wood made sure we were educated on all options, medical research/studies, and possible outcomes, so we could make an informed decision.  He is incredibly communicative, compassionate and perceptive to the needs of his patients, and their concerned parents.  Post-surgery, Dr. Wood remains committed to checking in on her well-being and ensuring her ultimate recovery and safe return to sports.  We cannot express the sheer depth of our gratitude to Dr. Wood and the team at Wake Orthopaedics.  He is truly the best of the best"

"I would like to give Dr. Wood some praise.  He is a caring and professional person and feel he went out of his way to help our daughter and our family.  We could not think any more highly of him and his practice and will be forever grateful.  His PT group with Luke Hudson was also excellent.  Top quality and Luke has gone out of his way to ensure our daughter's success as well.  We could not be happier with the experience, efforts of all involved, and overall results.  Stronger than she ever has been and one happy child."

"I severely damaged my Rotator Cuff requiring 3 separate procedures to correct.  As I was 69 at the time of surgery, full restoration was difficult and in doubt.  I am pleased to say I have regained full strength and motion.  Dr. Wood is not only highly qualified but also personable and communicates conditions and outcomes very well.  I highly recommend him and his supporting staff."

"Dr. Wood has been treating my wife for bad knees and that is where I got to see him in action.  His professionalism mixed with compassion and humor are a winning combination for anyone in need of medical treatment.  Fast forward and I went to Dr. Wood with a torn meniscus which had been causing me a lot of discomfort.  he looked for the problem with least invasive x-ray and moved on to an MRI which revealed the tear in the meniscus.  When consulting he gave me all of the details I needed to make an informed decision.  I asked him to surgically repair the tear and look for other damage.  A couple days later I went in for surgery and the supporting staff was professional, kind and compassionate.  Surgery lasted 30 minutes and after recovery from anesthesia, I was able to put some weight on my knee to get into the car.  I iced my knee and took drugs and pain medications for 2 days, didn't really need them so I stopped and have been walking without any crutches since.  I am at day 11 and will be going back to work this week.  A miracle might a little overboard but walking so soon without pain is close.  I highly recommend Dr. Wood."

"New to the area my brother in law recommended Dr. Wood who performed his Rotator Cuff surgery.  I have had two previous Rotator Cuff surgeries and Dr. Wood performed the third.  I am here to tell you it was by far the greatest experience I've had.  My previous surgeon was very experienced but Dr. Wood's surgery had me on a much faster track to recovery.  His professionalism and expertise are above reproach.  If you are in need of a GREAT Orthopedic surgeon look no further than Dr. Mark Wood."

"Dr. Wood did an outstanding job with my daughter for her ACL reconstruction.  She is now back to competitive soccer 9 months after surgery.  He took the time to explain everything and cited studies to back up his treatment plan.  Never had to wait long and everything was set up easily with surgery and post-care.  As a physical therapist, I have been very impressed and have already recommended patients of mine."

"From my first visit until my last follow-up appointment after Rotator Cuff Surgery, Dr. Wood educated me on every step of the process.  From diagnosing the tear to treatment options, and follow-through of my surgery, I had an understanding of exactly what my options were, the plan we choose, and what to expect during each stage (good or bad).  Dr. Wood always listened to my questions and concerns and answered them as thoroughly as he could.  Even on the day of surgery, he explained to my parents exactly what has been corrected in my shoulder, what my care needed to be in the days to come, and answered their questions just as thoroughly as he had mine.  In my opinion, Dr. Wood and his nurse Kristy Poole made me feel as if their first priority was getting shoulder healed and I back to the active lifestyle I was accustomed to.  I would highly recommend Dr. Mark Wood."

"Excellent Surgeon...My son had to have shoulder surgery.  Dr. Wood was great in explaining what needed to happen, the procedure and the expected outcome.  He has seen several members of my family from shoulders to knees with great overall outcomes.  Highly recommend him and his staff.."

"I saw Dr. Wood for knee pain, and an MRI diagnosed a full ACL tear with multiple multi-plane meniscus tears (he even called me from his vacation to go over the results!).  He was professional, thorough, took the time to answer my multitude of questions, and his work was excellent.  My scarring is minimal, his bedside manner was excellent, and my function is returning right on schedule."

"Dr. Wood was outstanding.  From the time my daughter tore her ACL through her recovery, he was everything we could hope for and more.  He was knowledgeable, informative, compassionate and attentive to detail.  The surgery was a success and her recovery progressed without issue.  She is now over one-year post-surgery and has no limitations or restrictions.  I highly recommend Dr. Wood."

"Dr. Wood came highly recommended for ACL surgery from two former teammates who have both had ACL replacement done in the past few years. It was a great referral because Dr. Wood has been excellent from the beginning until now at three weeks post-op. He has always patiently taken his time to thoroughly and realistically explain procedures, results and expectations for returning to competitive sports and everyday life after surgery. The whole process from office staff, physical therapy and the medical treatment has been excellent."
