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.

THIS MAN PUTS HIS PATIENTS FIRST! Its refreshing to have a doctor that wants to help me get answers and doesn't give up. I had an "issue" with RIA providing me inaccurate information and refusing to schedule my appointment. Dr. Echebiri went above and beyond and contacted their facility TWICE to correct them. He ensured they reached out to me (almost immediately). I expressed great frustration when I reached out to Dr. Echebiri & he got me results. I am so impressed with not only his personality but his chairside mannerisms as well. He was professional, courtous & extremely informative. After 4 different Gynecologists in the SOMD region & misdiagnosis in the past, I'm happy to say I may have found my home. Thank you for being you Doc!

Dr. E is one of the best doctors I have ever been to! I have been seeing him for a few years now and at each appointment, from the moment he walks into the room he has made me feel comfortable and at ease during the entire visit. Dr E has great bed side manner, he has listened and answered each question throughly, to the point I have complete understanding, even with some of those uncomfortable questions we all have at times. But with Dr. E there is no uncomfortable question! He is patient and kind and honest and cares about you as a person not just a patient. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking!

I had never met Dr. E until he walked into my room & told me he was going to be the doctor delivering my baby boy. I’m a first time mom and I was so scared and nervous about how my delivery would go, but Dr. E made me feel 100% comfortable and at ease the minute he walked into my room, even though he was a complete stranger to me at the time. Everything about my delivery experience with him was amazing and I’m hopeful he will deliver my 2nd child as well.. he was THAT awesome! Thank you Dr. E!!

Dr. Echebiri is definitely my favorite at Women’s Health. Although my visits there are never for anything pleasant, he has a way of making you feel calm. He is extremely knowledgeable and works with you to make sure you are not only safe, but happy. Every visit he makes sure to check up on me afterwards to make sure I’m doing well and is always willing to address any concerns even off the clock. Dr. E always puts your care and needs first. Even if you are a stubborn patient like me.

Dr. E is an excellent doctor. I didn't know what to expect on my first visit of my appointment but one thing that was sure is that I have to choose an OB/GYN. I didn't know what to expect when I first saw him but when we and he examined me I felt comfortable and knew that he is my doctor. He is available 24/7 to answer any question that I have. He is a cheerful doctor and frank when explaining himself. I will choose him any time and I have already recommended him to a family member.
