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.

Dr. Adogwa has done both a cervical and lumbar fusion on me. I have nothing but positive reports for his professionalism, surgical expertise, and obvious personal care for me as a patient. My particular conditions were challenging and Dr. Adogwa handled them beautifully.

Dr. Adogwa
Dr. Adogwa has a wonderful personality, is very caring, listens, and is an amazing surgeon. He completed surgery on my back and ended 34 years of pain and discomfort. I can't say enough good things about him.

Saved my husband's spine and life
On 6/25/23 My husband was hit by a distracted driver. He had cervical spine injuries; he had a severe thoracic spine break with bone fragments into his spinal column. Dr Adogwa built a special cage on the fly to protect my husband's ability to walk. within four months of surgery, he is walking almost back to pre-accident. The scar looks amazing, and we pray for Dr Adogwa's continued success working miracles.

July 2021- My cervical (neck) MRI showed moderate to severe spinal cord compression from C3 to T3 anterior(front) and posterior (back). Dr. Adogwa performed an incomplete surgery!! He only performed a Laminoplasty posterior C3-C6. Postoperatively,I continued to deteriorate neurologically over 4 months. My bilateral hands/fingers were losing motor skills and having numbness/weakness. My left leg had increasing weakness, spasms and spasticity (knee jerks). There were more symptoms I will omit to make this short. I was barely able to walk with a walker and was mostly wheelchair-bound. So,I obtained a second opinion. I was told that my original surgery was incomplete and that I required a 360 FUSION laminectomy C3-T3.After this surgery I had some physical returns, but unfortunately I am mostly confined to a wheelchair and am able to walk short distances with a walker. I’m unable to work any in any capacity ,since I have severe loss of fine motor (finger)skills. I continue to suffer!!!!!!
