Explains everything wholeheartedly making sure I understand what is being said. And listens to me not rushing me out. Makes me feel heard as a person not just someone else with problems. But with sincerity love and concern for her patients

I LOVE Dr Mwero. She has been so very very informative. She cares so much about my health and well being. I could not be any more complimentary of her! She has made such an important addition and contribution to the TFH team. When my problem first cropped up she was the first person to actually help me, educate me and then put me to ease. That whole experience (I am sure) was able to help me completely heal! I am so very grateful to her!

Dr Mwero is hands down the best doctor I have ever had the privilege to know and be treated by. She listens, actually listens to everything I have to say about my health. She then thoughtfully processes the Information and comes up with the just right treatments. She doesn't just care about my migraines, but the whole of my body and health, both mentally and physically. As I mentioned in Angie's part of the survey, I have medical PTSD from a horrid experience in China. Dr Mwero has been a HUGE part of my recovery with that too. She guided me into getting the mental health therapy I needed, and when I receive Botox treatments, she makes sure I feel safe and secure by modifying the room and how she approaches me to administer the shots. I truly and wholeheartedly don't know where I'd be today without Dr Mwero! She and Angie are a dynamic duo and a blessing to the health care community. I appreciate them so greatly for their care and dedication to the medical profession.

Dr. Mwero was very apologetic for the situation that happened at the front desk. She welcomed me back, already had a form ready when she walked in the room that I needed, asked me how I was since my last visit and remembered all my past chief complaints.

I have been in and out of different hospitals over the past 4 years trying to figure out what is going on with me, and Dr. Mwero is by far the most knowledgeable, attentive and present healthcare provider I have seen. She is far and away the best Doctor I have ever seen. Truly exceptional! My condition has felt hopeless for a long time, and each time I have seen someone I have come away feeling like they didn't understand and was left feeling more hopeless. This is the first time I have left a doctor's appointment feeling hopeful.
