I cannot recommend Nene enough! She has great energy is so helpful. She made our entire session so seamless. I had an issue with the pharmacy and when I reached out to her she immediately responded and handled it for me within a 15 minute time span. I couldn't be more grateful for her support & thoroughness.

Finally! Someone I can talk to that listens and knows their stuff. She made me feel comfortable and seen. She’s a straight shooter too. It’s hard to find that combination in one person. Thank you.

NP. Umunnakwe, is exceptionally professional, knowledgeable and empatic.
She saw me within record time after my request for a review. She spent time explaining my diagnosis and the planned treatments. I felt I was listened to, and my problems addressed in a very humane way.
She also gave me useful information on available local resources for health care.
I will highly recommend NP Onuoha's practise to my friends!

I am really grateful for Dr. Umunnakwe. She listens to me and asks questions. At my second appointment, she remembered me and knew everything I was going through already. I was very unsure about seeing a doctor online because it seems so impersonal, but she has definitely put my concerns to rest. She’s been available and quick to respond to all my questions when I reached out to her after my appointment. I’m so glad I took this step and don’t feel alone in dealing with my mental health.

Great talk, but I felt like I needed to see someone else. Additionally, my insurance is suddenly no longer accepted so there is no way for me to rebook anyway.
