Patient Reviews
Aug 11, 2018
Dr. Nwakama has operated on me on two different occasions . The first was for a fractured wrist and the second was a knee replacement. In both instances, he showed that he is a highly competent surgeon who is greatly concerned about the welfare of his patient. For example, the wrist injury happened as we were leaving for a vacation. Dr. Nwakama added the surgery on to the end of an already long surgical day so that my vacation would not be totally ruined. That level of concern is rare.
