Q&A with Dr. Trudy Wu: “Every Patient With Cholangiocarcinoma I Treat Reminds Me of My Dad” At the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation, we are inspired by people who channel their personal experiences into meaningful change for others. Dr. Trudy Wu is one of those people. As a radiation oncologist at UCLA Health, CCF research advocate, and legacy caregiver, Trudy brings a unique perspective to her practice and the community we serve. In this candid Q&A, Trudy shares how her father’s diagnosis changed her life and how she now uses that journey to guide and empower patients and families.

After her father’s cholangiocarcinoma diagnosis changed the course of her life, Dr. Trudy Wu works to empower patients through compassionate care and informed decisions.
