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.

Very aware of the family background and personality of patients. A physician that cared enough to notice my depression in my child's well visit and strongly encouraged an appointment to address the issue. Very upset he was relocated!

Dr. Nwankwo is a kind, friendly, patient, & knowledgeable doctor who has cared for our family for a few years now. What we like best about him is his trustworthiness, we have confidence in his diagnosis because of his proven ability to get to the bottom of a health concern by ordering whatever tests are necessary and sending us to the appropriate specialists when the need arrises. He listens to the patients concerns, and has an innate ability to calm, soothe, and focus on what is most important for optimal health. He has a gentle manner, and that too, is invaluable in a primary care physician.

He has been our kids' pediatrician for 5 years (since our youngest was born), and has been awesome. We have 2 kids with autism, and Dr. Uche has gone above and beyond in getting them the help that they need. We all just love him.

Dr. Uche is very kind and caring, however he has misdiagnosed a few things now and doesn't seem to listen to patient's/caregivers concerns in detail. He seems to already know what he wants to do and not want to change much. We also found that he changes his story sometimes which is not great if you are looking for a concrete answer.

I was not aware Dr. Uchebike specialized in Pediatrics, for myself a 22 yr old male he is my primary care doc. I have been a patient of his for a year or so now and have been suffering from multiple issues over this year period including knee issues resulting in an arthoscopy and fairly severe lumbar radiculopathy as well as constant lower back and hip pain. Dr. Nwankwo is extremely accesible, professional, compassionate, respectful. I trust him with my healthcare and he does an excellent job.

I have recommended Uche to most of my friends - and each one of them has also loved him. He never makes you feel rushed, always listens to all of your concerns and thoroughly explains everything. Hands down my favorite doctor. Thank you Uche!
