Very knowledgeable about all aspects of the kidneys. Explains everything so one can understand the process and procedures of dialysis. Would gladly recommend him. Wish we had found him earlier.

I really like this doctor, he stays current about medication and the most recent research on the kidney and high blood pressure. He spends lots of time talking with me and explaining clearly the problem and possible solutions.

Dr. Igwemezie is a very knowledgable doctor. His experiences with kidney failure and his understanding of the approaches to slow down this process is amazing. He clearly understands not only the physical aspects of the kidney but how to use different prescriptions to maintain the patient during this process. He is very serious about his work but also has a great sence of humor.
