Patient Reviews
Sep 16, 2021
Dr. Iwu is IRREPLACEABLE in my life. He was MORE than a doctor, he was a great friend. He was my PCP 4 over 12+ yrs, when I relocated 2MN on death's door @25, it was his continuous care tht brought me back 2 health &determined a diagnosis. Since he left it's been a NIGHTMARE @Essentia. The kindness&consideration is null &void. Post "audit" they elevated CNP's 2the status of "PCP's" 2 absorb the 35k patient-load tht Dr. Iwu carried (&supposition reigns supreme). Many are devoid of the sort of empathy, kindness, &consideration tht Dr. Iwu is/was known 4... I can guarantee tht if he was still present I wldn't be treated the way I hve been of recent... Left bedridden, awaiting intervention... Paranoia & the machine-like processing of patients, devoid of connection, seems 2b the edict & general theme (@least in Internal Med).. Every time I search 4 him&find tht he's still listed/connected2Essentia, my heart breaks a little. He was the soul &human element behind the hospital.
