Patient Reviews
Aug 23, 2023
From day one I found Dr Aminu to be an excellent Dr. She is very thorough, she listens carefully to what I say and asks detailed followup questions . She does not rush appointments, she explains treatment options, she does not restrict her examination to what I have indicated but goes even further. She is very responsive to any questions or concerns I have whether I use her clinic’s portal or whether I leave a message with the receptionist. I have recommended her to my daughter & would highly recommend her to anyone.
