All the staff was beyond amazing. Anytime someone mentions needing to choose a hospital for surgery or having a baby, I ALWAYS recommend wake med NORTH. I think the ER department needs A LOT of improvement but every other department I have been to has exceeded my expectations.
Dr. Azikiwe gave an overview of the gallbladder and it’s for functions. She also provided through answers to my questions.
This doctor is amazing!! I wish I had her as my primary care doctor!!
Everything
Dr Azikiwe and all that I had contact with during my visit were outstanding. I left with a understanding of what my scheduled surgery will require to correct the issue. Dr. Azikiwe is very thorough, kind and understanding. I was told by many that she is as a very good surgeon. I feel confident that I am in good hands of a skilled surgeon.
I like that she was very friendly and down to earth. I really like that she was engaged and totally focused on me. I like how the nurse took notes so the dr. Could pay attention to my concerns.
The doctor explained my upcoming surgery in a way I could understand it. Best explanation I ever had

Dr. Azikiwe has a cheerful bedside manner, She is professional and kind. She takes time to talk to you and family members. Dr. Azikiwe listens to you and is detailed in her explanation of the procedure she will be performing. I would recommend Dr. Azikiwe to family and friends in need of a surgeon.
Everyone and everything was excellent!!! I didn't feel like a number, but a patient.

Dr. Azikiwe is an outstanding doctor and surgeon. Her skills and her ability to make you feel very comfortable make her my go-to surgeon whenever I need one!

Dr and staff are excellent and show how much they care
Everyone was very attentive and caring. I was seen quickly and my condition was evaluated and I was sent for surgery all within a couple of hours.
I’m 75 years old with a lifetime of experience with Hospitals and Emergency Care, believe me when I tell you that my visit to WakeMed Surgery-North Raleigh was the most pleasant time I have ever enjoyed. Registration to Post Op it was enjoyable and I was the patient!!! Thank you

Nurses who cares for me were amazing!
My care and concern I was given. The fast pace that they took to give me relief. Everyone right from registration to the surgery and then recovery was a good feeling and they really showed me compassion and care.
The amount of time that was spent explaining the procedure.
Dr. Azikiwe is phenomenal. She is personable, her bedside manner is exceptional. I genuinely wish I could visit her for any and all medical needs and not just general surgery. Her ability to explain my condition made me feel empowered to make informed decisions and she ensured I was comfortable though the process.

Thank you so much for your care surgery team and WakeMed surgery center. Excellent service
The care and professionalism of the staff was remarkable.
Dr. Azikiwe has the best bedside manner I’ve ever seen. She is warm and calming. Explains things very simply and clearly. I felt very taken care of and heard. With that said, all of this isn’t even enough. She’s truly fantastic! She’s an example of the standard of care other doctors should hold themselves to. While I’m opting not to have a procedure, I know if I had chosen to that I would be in capable, safe, and good hands.
Dr. Azikiwe, was outstanding.
Very friendly and professional group of people, from the front desk to the care I received in the exam room with staff and the surgeon. I am looking forward to working with the WakeMed Surgery Team on behalf of my medical-surgical needs. Thanks so much for your kind, and respectful behavior regarding my health care.
the entire experience
Dr.Azikiwea took the time to get to know me instead of going right into the consultation.
Dr. Azikiwe has a wonderful bedside manner on top of her expertise and talented surgical abilities. She also has a way of clearly explaining and demonstrating the points she’s making. This will be my second surgery with her
Dr Azikiwe is an outstanding physician!
All good!
The care from all the staff
I just think Dr. Azikiwe is so sweet and genuinely cares about helping her patients feel better
Her bed side manner
Dr. Azikiwe is the best doctor I’ve ever had. She was patient during each of our visits beginning with the first meeting. She thoroughly explained my condition and the procedure to repair at the first meeting. She advised me of pain management prior and after to my surgery. Dr. Azikiwe answered all questions asked by my family and me.
Dr. Azikiwe, customer service and knowledgeable information was very appreciative to me! She explained the whole method of treatment and listened to my concerns and our overall goal to help me get the best resolution to my ongoing medical issue. I’m looking forward to her treatment asap! Most definitely would refer her to my family!!
Dr. Azikiwe is simply the best doctor and most skilled surgeon I’ve ever experienced. She is extremely caring, very competent, always on time, and does an extremely good job at explaining procedures, and what to expect during recovery. I could not be more pleased.
Unfortunately I required a visit to the ER in [ ]. I went to Rex. My visit with them was so traumatic I will NEVER go to Rex again for anything. [DATE] I took an ambulance to Wake Med N. They heard me and didn't dismiss my pain. They did what they could and sent me home. A week later I returned and this visit went as amazingly as the last. The difference between Rex and Wake Med: Wake Med staff CARES about their patients. And it shows.
Beside the doctor, there was doctor [ ], several nurses that took care of me around the clock that were outstanding. They should all be congratulated for their attention to detail and excellence.
Dr Azikiwe is the best. I would recommend her to anyone who asked. Thoughtful and caring with the patients best interest in mind. Provided me with enough information but not so much that it was overwhelming. Made you feel comfortable and confident about the process. She is very special and I feel lucky to have her as a doctor.
Education regarding my current condition. Her genuine care.
My entire care was excellent
Everything was fine.
The staff was outstanding. Most of the RN’s and NA were very compassionate and had a great bedside manner. Dr. Asikiwe was the Best.

I have seen this surgeon years ago referred by Dr. [] who thinks highly of her. I mentioned her to Dr. [] PA Beth and they think highly of her too that means a lot to me.
Very pleasent experience. One of the very best Dr patient conversations that was much more tjan expected.
I felt respected. I was made to feel relaxed.
Dr Azikiwe explained my hernia situation very thoroughly. I was coming to get a second opinion. I already had surgery set up at a different clinic. If I had come to her first, I would have had surgery with her. However, I had all the details worked out with the surgery at the different clinic.
Dr. Azikiwe was very caring and showed real concern for my problem.
