My goal is to offer healthcare that not only relieves the patient of the burden of impaired health by targeting the core cause of illness (and not just the symptoms) but healthcare that also relieves the patient of some of the financial burden of receiving quality healthcare.
Board certified in Family Medicine, Dr Ukanwa has provided excellent primary care services in New Mexico since August of 2006. A California transplant by way of Washington DC and New York City, Dr Ukanwa, has acquired a rather cosmopolitan philosophy of preventative care practice, combining traditional allopathic medicine expertise with naturopathic modalities of care. After completing a bachelors degree in 1997 in Environmental Engineering and Water Sciences/Civil Engineering at Stanford Univerity in California , Dr Ukanwa spent 2 years traveling the world (including Italy, Spain, Norway, the Bahamas, and more) before matriculating into medical school at Howard University College of Medicine in Washington DC.
On graduating in 2003, she completed her Family Medicine residency training at Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, NY via the Albert Einstein College of Medicine Family and Social Medicine Residency Program. Dr Ukanwa is currently accepting patients of all ages and with all health concerns.
