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.

I wish I still lived in Mesa
Best Dr Ever. He saved my life in 2005 and became our family Dr after that. My Mom, my in laws all used him in the winter season when they were there. I've lived in OR and OH since then and I miss him a lot. These two states I couldn't even see a Dr. Only Nurse Practicetioners. You might have to wait past your appointment time but, he will give you the time he gives other patients. He makes sure he hears you, does everything within his power to make sure he treats you and gets you healthy again. When we moved to OR after using Dr. Ononye for over 20 years I cried when I gave him a hug goodbye. He is such an amazing Dr.

Beware
Dr Ononye is the most horrific Dr that I have ever encountered. I was in the most horrible pain with my back and the Banner hospital referred me to him for follow up. I arrived at my appointment and waited over 2 hours to be seen. I was crying in pain the whole time and even the other patients begged the receptionist for me to be seen. When he finally saw me only to tell me he refused to help and told me to leave. My back was in such a precarious situation I later had to have a spinal fusion to correct my back problem. Way to go Doc, truly you should not be practicing. It will only allow me to post with a star highlighted but obviously there should not be any stars

Dr Ononye is one of the best physicians I have ever met. He is thoughtful, considerate, and extremely knowledgable in the care and treatment of my whole family. I would never see anyone else.

I had a negative experience. Dr. Ononye did not specify the correct diagnostic codes for my labs needlessly costing me a lot of money. The insurance company said it would be a simple matter for my provider to resubmit and they would be covered 100%. I provided documentation for Dr. Ononye to do this and he failed to correct his mistakes. He was also arrogant and dismissive in my office visits. I would NOT recommend him.

A mediocre Dr. who can't keep a schedule. Long waits in waiting room and in exam room.

A very kind doctor that waits for me to finish speaking. Wonderful "chairside" manner. I would continue to be in his care, if I was remaining in the state.

I am a medical advocate for an 85 y/o female. I took my patient to an appointment with Dr. Ononye (it was my first time meeting him) and I was impressed with the amount of time he spent listening to my patient, demonstrating concern regarding her recent, unexpected hospitalization, asking appropriate questions and suggesting a thorough plan of action and follow-up. I have already made two referrals to Dr. Ononye for other patients with whom I am involved.
