Patient Reviews

Dr. Nzeako is very compassionate, positive, detailed, and very passionate about the procedures he performs. He has extremely nice bedside manner and explains results thoroughly and in a way that you can understand results. I would refer him to anyone seeking a colonoscopy as he will make you feel comfortable and confident about the procedure.
