Dr. Lauretta Ifeoma Odogwu, MD

Love this doctor!!!

If a patientâ??s situation realistically only leaves them a few months to live, then as a doctor, you should have the courage to tell them that. When you tell a man in his 80â??s he needs chemo and radiation and he spends that last few months of life sick and all you have to say is, oh sorry the treatment didnâ??t work, so that what little time he has left, he was is in misery. Youâ??ve given him false hope because you were too much of a coward to tell him the truth. You took the easy way out for yourself so you didnâ??tâ?? have to talk about death. He had little time to process what was happening because he was shuffled from treatment to the hospital because the treatment made him so sick that he no time to work through what was going on or to spend any quality time with him family. You denied his dignity, you denied his family time with him, and you denied his right to choose how to spend the last few months of his life. You are a coward.

Excellent experience with this physician
