I am very happy I was in his care and under his supervision on my way to a healthier me.

Dr. Nwizu is always very patient, very helpful, and very diligent in making sure I am following all of the clearly wise direction he provides. When I came in a year ago, instead of telling me(like all of my previous doctors) that my weight was a result of laziness or overeating; he took the time to set out a plan for weight loss, made sure I knew why I was so heavy, wrote out a prescription for a weight loss medicine. Always, kind and knowledgeable. He helped get rid of my "white coat syndrome"
