The doctor was very nice and knowledgeable I just think someone should have looked at the wound on his leg, that was why we were there.

I was expecting the doctor's nurse to come after 10 or 15 minutes to check on me and tell me that the doctor was not going to see me for almost 2 hours. Or make arrangements for another appointment later on. It was my primary doctor's nurse the one that run to make arrangements for another appointment later (which was given and then cancelled).

I've been dealing with Dr. Amankwah for over 3 years. I appreciated his down to earth attitude & has answered all my questions. I trust him 100 %. More doctors should follow his lead as he is a top notch doctor in what his knowledge is along with dealing with patients, putting them at ease.
