"2010 he preformed a 4 level ACDF. Excellent outcome and 4 levels is rare. 2023, he and his lovely team did a 4 level, posterior cervical decompression and fusion to slow progression of a spinal cord injury at C6. It’s been 7 weeks and I’m so much better. He’s such a gift after having others botch (2) lumbar fusions elsewhere. UCONN is top shelf and their entire system runs flawlessly. Nobody’s mean or rude. They have a brand new surgical wing that is state of the art. "

"He was going to perform a (2) level ACDF, as levels above the first one needed attention. I told him I think the fusion another office did fell apart but didn’t show up in mri. When I woke up, he told me the fusion had fallen apart requiring him to fuse (4) levels. 12 years later, and now I have myelomalacia and he never came into the room, even though I waited 3 months to see him. Some PA lady went back and forth relaying what he tells her. What an awful appointment! Now they’re forcing me to get an epidural which contradicts myelomalacia. I feel dismissed and not listened to. I saw him by the elevator as I was paying the parking fee. I didn’t say anything."

"i made a appointment, had it cancels and rescheduled. i was coming to spine surgery center after having surgery elsewhere . dr. onyiuke refused follow up care because he wasn’t the surgeon. he was rude, demeaning and disrespectful. my other doctors are at uconn and i wanted all my care under uconn. he said he didn’t have time to see other peoples patients, i explained i had terminated my other care and sent my records as requested to spine center. i’ve filed a complaint with patient advocates at uconn.
