Dr Chi-Chi (Chiedu) Obuaya

Written by a patient at Pinero House

I have suffered from major depressive disorder for most if not all of my adult life, and by the end of 2017, I had tried several medications (over a period of three to four years). The process of weaning on and off the meds was excruciating. All of them had for the most part failed, and I ultimately gave up on treating my depression with pills and tried to "live with it" instead. By June 2019, I reached a breaking point and simply could not manage day to day activities anymore, so on the advice of my therapist, I booked an appointment with Dr Obuaya. I became quite ill and experienced a serious breakdown. Dr Obuaya took extra care to get me back to health. He was gentle, understanding, never judgemental, and clear at a time when I felt lost and hopeless. He conducted remote emergency appointments with me by phone, and put me on an anti-anxiety medication that stabilized me within hours and an antidepressant that was life-altering within weeks. I say without exaggeration that Dr Obuaya in some ways saved my life: I am now stable and healthy and look forward to my future instead of anticipating it with dread or not seeing one at all. I can't recommend Dr Obuaya enough.

I can definitely recommend dr chi-chi. He was easy to speak to, non judgemental and listened to me. He offered me a different medication to my local GP and explained clearly how it worked. I felt better within days
