Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Smart and kind and listens to what you say. Plan together with patient. Get full exams and he takes his time. Glad we found him! I’m a Hcp - midland know how silly and useless our local care is. No touching, turfing to others, rush you Rather have no care than going certain places or ED .Found a winner!

Blessed to have Dr Njoku
I have had Dr Njoku for my primary care Dr since he worked at Oneonta Family Practice. I followed him to his private practice, and I am not disappointed. He spends all the time a patient needs. He is very attentive and complete with the needs I bring to the office. I never feel rushed while he is in the exam room. He takes all the time needed to make sure I understand and what is the best way to care for me. His office personnel are very kind and professional. I know whether Mrs. Njoku or Darlene answers the phone I will have a kind voice and knowledgeable answer. If by chance they do not have the answer they will get back to me ASAP. I have never waited for a call back. My prescriptions are always called in when they say they would be. I appreciate Dr Njoku and his staff. Oneonta is very BLESSED to have them taking care of us. Sincerely Shona-Lee Glavin-Costello

Pioneer in his trade.
Never has I been unable to get an appointment. Wait time don’t concern me because once he enter the examination room he’s all ears. Staff is great. We discuss diagnoses and his professional experience allow me to make more informed decisions. 12 years.

I have seen Dr. N three times and every time he has spent time with me and discussed in detail my health concerns. He gives attention to every detail and doesn't push drugs. He needs sufficient evidence before prescribing. He made me feel like I was not just a number. I recommend him to anyone wanting to get to the root of their issues.

had a 10:20 am appointment for routine physical and was immediately placed in exam room and then sat there for 40 minutes with not one person updating me as to when i would be seen. Got dressed and left and was never stopped or asked by any staff members as to why i was leaving. its been 3 hours since i left and still haven't been contacted. I wonder if they even know i left.
