About Uchechukwu M. Obih
Rheumatologic diseases are a complex group of illnesses that can manifest in different ways and can potentially be debilitating to those they affect. Dr. Obih believes that thoroughness, insightfulness, and compassion are essential in not only making and treating a clinical diagnosis but in understanding the patient living with the diagnosis. Her patients are the center of her care, and are an integral part in her providing the best, up to date, individualized treatment plans. Outside of work, Dr. Obih enjoys spending time with family and friends.

I always feel heard and regardless of what I need to say to her or where I'm at with my treatment plan I never feel like she's judging me she simply takes in information and provides guidance to necessary. She explains complicated medical issues In a way that is easy to understand and outlines the treatment plan so that I understand what my next steps are what providers I need to see next and when I should follow up with her. I never leave her office with any uncertainty I always feel like I have a good understanding of where my health is what I need to do next what I need to continue to do and what can I can expect in the future. I always make a point of looking at all test results in my chart as soon as I get the alert that they are there and she is the only provider that will often already have a comment in there explaining the test results before I ever see them. She's the only provider I've ever had that comments on every single test she orders to explain the results in the scope of my conditions and my treatment. It's something I never experienced before and it's something I am extremely grateful for. I always feel like she's engaged with my treatment plan and that I'm never on the back burner at any point in time. I was all providers were as engaging as she is.

First want to thank Swedish for your excellent care. I'm alive and doing well because of you. If I could place the stars, the radiance of the moon and the comfort of the sun in Dr. Ogih's hands, I would, I don't have the words of gratitude to express to her and about her for what's she's done for me, I have a quality of life because of her. The pain is very manageable because of her and I'm able to get out of bed and do great things because of her. Every visit with her is remarkable. She understands what I'm saying and my progression or lack of progression and she helps me advance to continue my quality of life. She's very unusual as a doctor. Swedish needs to go out of its way to keep her on staff as she is an incredible asset to patients. The staff is always wonderful. I'm appreciate them too.

Everyone was great. It just takes too long to get appointments. If there hadn't been a cancellation, I would have had to wait two more months to see Dr. Obih.

Dr. Obih is the best rheumatologist I've seen at Swedish. She is very professional and knowledgeable in her field. I would recommend her to anyone who believes they have arthritis.
