He earned his MD from National Taiwan University in 1985 and completed his research fellowship from the University of California San Francisco in 1991.

He was awarded the Jean-Paul Ginestie Prize (1992) for the discovery of the three-dimensional structure of the tunica albuginea.[2] In 2010, he was awarded the second prize on Controversies in Urology (CURy) for a hemodynamic confirmation of the penile veins as a significant contributor for penile erection.
Hsu is featured in several Taiwanese media, including the Global View Magazine[3] and the Healthmedia.[4] He was also featured in the Channel 4 Documentary; in "The Sex Researchers" episode, he claimed to "know the penis more than anyone else in the world."[5] In Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex, the American author Mary Roach documented her first-hand experience shadowing Hsu.[6]
