About Dr. Chengcheng Tu

Dr. Chengcheng Tu is a Board-qualified foot and ankle surgeon by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery. Dr. Chengcheng Tu graduated Summa Cum Laude from St. John's University, majoring in Biology and minoring in physics. Subsequently, she earned her dual degrees, Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine and Master of Public health from Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and graduated with high honors at both institutions. She then completed her four-year reconstructive foot and ankle surgical residency at New York-Presbyterian Queens Hospital as the Chief Resident. Throughout her residency training, Dr. Tu had a comprehensive exposure to foot and ankle trauma at a Level I Trauma Center, elective and reconstructive forefoot and rearfoot surgery, advanced limb salvage techniques, lower extremity wound care, and general podiatric medicine. Additionally, she had extensive experience working on a multidisciplinary limb salvage team at NYP-Cornell, striving to prevent limb loss and reserve function for each of her patients. Throughout her undergraduate and doctoral studies, Dr. Tu has engaged in a number of research projects and developed a randomization app for junior clinical faculty. She also presented multiple abstracts and posters during her residency. Her current interest is to raise the concern of podiatric health literacy, bridge the gap between patients and medicine, and also increase the awareness of diabetic foot care in the Chinese community. Her father is a Chinese immigrant. After seeing her father's struggle with diabetes and limb length discrepancy, she would like to be a part of the solution. Now, Dr. Tu is one of the specialists at the Metropolitan Foot & Ankle Group. Outside of her professional life, Dr. Tu enjoys singing, hiking, and visiting museums.

Verified patient
The doctor and the staff were excellent. They really go above and beyond!! I would recommend them to anyone. There was no wait and they even called me when they had an earlier slot open up! I had to get a procedure done and I was terrified( because I hate needles) and they were very supportive and walked me through every step!! Strongly recommend them!
Verified patient
Dr. Tu was overall nice and understanding to explain conditions and provide practical non-invasive recommendations at home to see if they will help before a potential follow-up appointment. She offered insights other podiatrists I went to did not, so I will see if her recommendations will help improve a condition I have had for months. Her bedside manner was fine, although the appointment felt a little bit rushed, maybe because she tends to be straightforward in her style of seeing patients.
Great doctor and very friendly office. The x ray tech Jose was very knowledge and explained everything along the way. Dr. Tu printed all my information for me and very clearly explained in a way I could understand.
