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.

TOO GOOD BUT..
Dr. Chukwu is an AMAZING Doctor. I wish I could stay with her but she’s always soo booked and busy. If something sudden happens, it’s almost impossible to get a hold of her. There has been moments where she will reach out after hours but for majority of it all, the staff will put someone on shadow to call you. It’s always extremely difficult to get in touch with her unless you have an appointment. For this reason, I had to find another PCP. I love Dr. Chukwu, but we never know when we may need our DR. Not every appointment can be scheduled! Especially as a FEMALE

My office visit with Dr. Chukwu
I just cannot say enough about my first visit with Dr. Chukwu. She was a delight to engage in conversation. She was very professional and very open to discuss any health issues pertaining to one’s health. Her examination was very thorough with incredible bedside manners. She would spend whatever time was necessary to ensure you left her office totally and completely satisfied. Excellent overall experience!!!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Chukwu?
She is knowledgeable but her tone and bed-side manner is condescending. She is unable to break things down to a level of the patient as she is too busy using highfalutin language. She promised to send 90 days of medication and none was sent to the Px and the date of the my chart request was before the office visit- carelessness on their part. It is very frustrating when you have a telehealth and don't get the amount of medication promised. To date I have only received 30 days of medication. Still trying to get the remaining 60 days phoned in. Don't waste your time with this Memorial Doctor.
