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.

The absolute best
Dr. Nwasike is incredible--so knowledgeable and will always listen and answer any questions. Completed my surgery without any issues whatsoever. Follow up was great, and showed his incredible results. I seriously can't recommend him enough!

Very polite
He explained everything to me even though I didn’t understand all that he said to me. So he put it in Laymans terms as opposed to medical terms to help me understand a little bit more. He spoke very good English. Staff was all very helpful as well. They answered questions that I forgot to ask him. I’m not good at writing reviews. I I felt very comfortable with him and I feel he was knowledgeable.

Best doctor ever
This doctor is very professional, caring, and attentive. I’ve been so lucky lately coming across some good doctors, and this doctor is one of the best ones yet. He actually cares for the patients best interests and not he’s, or he’s business. He listens and recommends the best possible options for the patient.

Dr Nwasike was very professional and personable. He explained my MRI and X-ray in terms I could understand. He took his time .. was not rushed. I agreed whole heartedly with his course of treatment. Did not try to fix things with pills. I have an enormous amount of respect for Dr Nwasike and trust his professional medical advice. Thank you!

Dr Nwasike is amazing and kind. He is so smart too
Dr. Nwasike has the best bed side manner when he is treating you. He answers all your questions and is completely honest and thorough about the treatment you will receive. He is so intelligent and tells you exactly what is going on. His entire staff is helpful and patient and kind and really make you feel comfortable. You can always get through on the phone and if you leave a message you will get a call back quickly. I was definitely impressed with the level of service. I would recommend him to anybody that would need him. His professionalism is on the top tier, and you can trust he has your well-being at the top of the list. I am thankful that I went to him and was treated for my spinal fusion. I would definitely go back to him if I need another surgery.
