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.

Amazing

Dr Owunna
Thank God first for this beautiful baby girl. Secondly to Dr. Owunna, Dr Brown and Dr Gleason. My baby girl is almost 6 months and am very grateful to these Doctors. I had problems throughout my pregnancy from being on lovenox, cerclage , UTI every month throughout my pregnancy, and having covid at 36 weeks. It was tough but thank God for these great doctors. I remember the first time I met Dr. Owunna I was crying so hard, I had lost my baby at 13weeks after having lost one before at 22 weeks. She promised me she will personally deliver my baby so I should go and try again. God blessed me again and she kept her word. I remember on the day of delivery when my epidural failed the, she rushed to my bedside and did everything she could for me to have another epidural for me to have a safe delivery. She is kind, caring and listened to every complaint i had and went above and beyond to get her patients the best of care, she knew what she was doing throughout. God bless you Dr Owunna. Thanks

Awful. The practice she works at is down right rude. I had complications and they just dismissed me without even consulting her. The "B" in charge called me an idiot when I asked for prenatals. Who does that? This was three years ago and still I can't believe how poorly treated my husband and I were.

I seen Dr Owunna a couple of times since where I go its several doctors that are in OBYGN office she is very professional and pleasant. She also eases me of my worries since I went with a concern she assured me it was good that I am alert since any complication can be harmful to the baby since I have a high risk pregnancy.

Dr. Owunna who was very nice and considerate, but when it came to helping me find the right form of birth control, was not helpful. She only told me about Skyla (IUD) and did not tell me about any of the possible side effects but only the positive things. She originally told me before I got my IUD put in that she does this for many teens and it doesn't hurt too bad. It definetly hurt (only 5 seconds but did hurt) and after getting it done she said not many teens go through that..

Hi, Dr. Owunna was a great person but unfortunately I didn't like the office. I called saying that my symptoms for UTI hasn't gone away and it got worst. The nurse wouldnt connect me to speak to the doctor. I only can speak to a nurse which is ridiculous. Well I eneded up going to my primary doctor, turns out they been treating for vaginal infection rather than UTI which is totally different. I will never go back again. Its hard to get hold of a doctor.

Dr. Owunna is THEE sweetest Physician I have ever encountered. She was very patient and kind and at no time did I ever feel like I was rushed during appts. or like she didn't have time for me. At first the East Brunswick staff was a little rough around the edges but as I came so frequently they soon began to answer my phone calls with, Hello Ms.________! To my surprise they had now knew me beyond just being another face. I loved that! Dr. Owunna did an unbelievably amazing job on my myomectomy
