Patient Reviews
Sep 21, 2022
First time seeing Dr Kanu was an amazing experience. She was very patient and calm with our 3 year old son. She sat and throughly listened to our concerns and asked us a lot of questions to understand our situation and develop a treatment plan. I feel very confident in her and appreciate her kindness. She was very knowledgeable and explained everything. We see her again in few months for more testing. I would definitely recommend her for your child.
