Interview with Dr Woffles Wu
June 15, 2008
For English, we have to do a Biography project, and our biographee is Dr Woffles Wu, world-renowned Asia’s leading aesthetic surgeon.
Just came back from an interview with him. Was at first quite scared as famous people are mostly fierce and scary… but he was very friendly!
From the answers he gave to our questions, I have learnt many many things about life and about how inner and outer beauty, confidence relate to each other.
One highlight of his life was a 16-year-old girl who approached him in 1991 to have the big mole with hair on her face removed. The mole affected her life greatly and she felt that she had no life at all. After the surgery, he never heard of her again. But 13 to 14 years after that, he received a thank-you letter from her. She said she became an air stewardess and married a nice guy and have 3 children. She is now living a very nice life, which she would never be able to have if she never had met Dr Wu and had her mole removed… Quite touching sia… =D
He also talked to us about how he had half of his family/relatives who were doctors and how many other things in his life pushed him forward to become a doctor, or rather, an aesthetic surgeon. Many many events caused him to become what he is now, and he said that he is invited very often to conduct lectures in many different places.
I had a fruitful session at his house today sia. He stays in Bishan, and is quite close to my house. xD Didn’t have to waste bus/MRT fares LOL. After the biography is created, we will be uploading it to Wikipedia and another place called Wiki (which I’m not sure what it is…). He requested us to send him the video/sound clips that we took and a transcript of it. He also volunteered to help us edit our biography. xD
!!! Hope we get good marks for this project!!!
