    Very rude, disrespectful, and condescending. Not sure if she knew what she was doing. Relied heavily on other doctors past notes in MyChart that had absolutely nothing to do with my visit.

    Dr. Kanu is wonderful. She was my mother's doctor before she became mine. I love the way she really listens to what you have going on and your concerns. She explains different options for solutions so you can feel comfortable in choosing the right option for yourself. I'm very grateful for Dr. Kanu. She also follows up in the portal and even calls, which is amazing in today's time where everything is digital. That personal touch is the best feeling to people.
