    I'm only giving Dr. Anamekwe 5 stars because yelp doesn't allow us to give more. She is a total…read morerock star. What sets her apart? She cares for her patients as people. She's not afraid to speak bluntly and honestly and that's because she cares. She understands that people have placed their trust in her and she takes that personally. And when the patient succeeds, she's the first to be excited and celebrate with that patient. It's a level of care that I have never seen with other physicians.

    I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Kene Anamekwe! I…read moremoved to Wylie from Odessa in 2018. I had a wonderful Internist in Odessa that I really did not want to lose. I am a cancer survivor and have other health concerns so a GOOD doctor that I can talk to and who will address all my concerns - no matter how small - is a must for me. I tried going back to Odessa every few months but when some issues with my blood came up, my doctor felt like it was time for me to find an Internist in this area to be more closely monitored, so I began my search. I got some recommendations from my Hematologist - four or five names. I called several at random because I did not really know anything about any of them. I ran into problems like, "not taking new patients", "we don't take that insurance", etc. I called Dr. Anamekwe and was able to make an appoint fairly quickly. Honestly, I had put her farther down on my list because I have hearing issues and I was afraid I would have trouble understanding her, but I decided to give it a try. After making my appointment, I looked her up on the internet to see what I could find out about her. Her clinic is Vivify Wellness Center and I found out that they had a weight loss center. I thought, "Oh boy! I am looking for a doctor to address my health concerns and all she is going to be interested in is my weight." I have struggled with my weight for many years. I have been to many weight loss clinics. Trust me. I know the drill, but for some reason I decided to give it a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! Dr. Anamekwe is delightful, very personable, easy to understand, and took an ample amount of time with me. All through my visit, though, in the back of my mind was, "When is she going to hit me with the weight loss." I NEVER happened! We talked about all my history. She told me how she was interested in treating all my issues to the upmost of her ability; she shared her philosophy on medical treatment; and she never mentioned the weight loss portion of her practice - I had to ask her about it. She told me if I were interested in that, I would have to make another appointment just for it because her medical practice is separate. I was impressed. I have now been seeing her for almost six months. She discovered I was pre-diabetic. I am going today for blood work that I expect to tell me that I have completely turned that situation around. I did join her weight loss program, which is really just a lifestyle change, and I have lost over 30 pounds. The plan is easy and I am never hungry. I have very few cravings but when I do, I have learned that the taste of that food is not nearly as good and the way that lower number on the scale makes me feel. I am looking forward to getting off some of my medications - I currently take NINE. (Can you imagine the cost of that!) Recently I told her, "Dr. Anamekwe, you are going to save my life." She answered, "No, I am going to be the instrument God uses to save your life." Wow, when was the last time you got a response like that from a doctor? I thank God for putting the obstacles in front of me when I was searching for a new Internist. I know He led me straight to Dr. Kene Anamekwe.

    I honestly do not even know where to start with how grateful I am for Dr. Anamekwe. She became so…read moremuch more than a preceptor to me. She genuinely cared for me like I was her own daughter, and my parents and I are so thankful that I had the chance to meet her. I learned so much medicine from her, but more importantly, she taught me what kind of doctor I want to be. She showed me that being a good physician is about listening to your patients, educating them, understanding their lives, and always doing what is right for them. She is one of the most ethical, kind, patient, and caring doctors I have ever met. She is incredibly passionate about holistic and preventive medicine, especially metabolic health. She takes the time to teach her patients about nutrition, medications, and making healthier choices in their everyday lives. She truly practices what she teaches. She grows fresh herbs at the clinic and gardens at home, always finding ways to encourage her patients to eat better and take care of themselves. She also helped me personally change my own habits and take better care of myself, and I ended up losing weight. She listened to me and supported me through things in my personal life too. She cared about me as a person, not just as a medical student, and I will always be grateful for that. I had the opportunity to watch her work through complicated cases, recognize things that had been missed, and advocate relentlessly for her patients despite insurance or financial barriers. She taught me that medicine should never just be about money. It should be about caring for the person in front of you. Even after my rotation, I have heard so many times from her patients and other preceptors how lucky I was to learn from her. Her patients truly love and trust her, and I completely understand why. She listens to their stories, remembers the little things they tell her, and makes them feel genuinely heard. I still return to the clinic because I genuinely want to keep learning from her. I know that every time I am around her, I learn something new and become a better physician. My parents and I will always be grateful for Dr. Anamekwe. She has changed my life both personally and professionally, and she has shown me the kind of physician I hope to become one day. She did not just teach me medicine. She taught me how to care for people, and that is something I will carry with me for the rest of my career.

    I absolutely love this Doctor!!!!! She is attentive and the great thing about her is her listen to…read morewhat you say and tru to find the problem!!

I've seen a lot of different doctors over time and this one has got to be hands down the best ever! I'm not just being bias cause he is my doctor. But he is great stuff!! Staff is always ready to help and never had any issues. If my doctor ever leaves this place I will follow him that's how good he is. :) Have a good day!

I spent 14 years of my life taking more medication as a child and teen than most elderly people take. That being said I will tell you why I love my doctor, Dr. Patterson. I am down to one, just one regular medication and she has even lowered the dose, and may even lower it again. Not only that but my Asthma is better than it has ever been. I might get a flare up once a year now. I drive several miles out of my way to see Dr. Patterson. There is a Baylor Center just five minutes from my apartment, but they have the same terrible doctors as the location on Clara Barton. I probably would have written off the entire Baylor system if it were for my doctor here. It's so refreshing to have a doctor who is not a glorified pill pusher. Also there only two docs here, Caudill, and Patterson. It's really a nice small practice, though it is tucked away in a weird industrial complex.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Bander and Nurse Carol Kick for years (Since 1999) and am very…read moresatisfied with the care I receive. I will say that their level of efficiency has improved vastly since they joined the Baylor network. Wait times are generally short now, whereas they were painfully long before and their billing runs much more smoothly. Communication is primarily done through the Baylor system and they are quick to respond to questions regarding my care. Their lab technicians have all been excellent at what they do, so I never have to worry about an amateur digging for a vein with a needle. Their staff is friendly and the entire office seems to run well. I would recommend them to anyone that needs a general practitioner in the Wyle/Sachse/Garland area.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Steven Bander and nurse practitioner Carol Kick for over 6 years. When…read moreour insurance changed, and I told doctor Bander that he was not on our plan, he said, "Oh well. It's been nice knowing you." I was trying to be nice. His reply felt so abrupt & indifferent. Recently our insurance changed, so because of my medical history, I decided to return to them for a sick visit on 4/25/16. I asked if I needed to fill out any new patient paperwork. They said no, and that all of my medical information was still on file with them. (By the way, because of the recent hail damage in Wylie, they have merged and relocated to Lake Pointe Medical Partners in Wylie, on FM-544, just East of the Wylie High School.) On my 4/25/16 visit, I was seen my nurse practitioner Carol Kick. She said that basically nothing was wrong with me, except a little bit of congestion and to keep taking over the counter decongestants. She said if I started feeling worse, she would call in an antibiotic prescription for me. The next night 4/26/16 I was running fever and had infected congestion present, so I called their office the morning of 4/27 to let them know how miserable I was. I called twice. I was blown off and no one was helping me, and I was not given any timeframe as to when I would get a prescription. So, I gave up and saw a different medical doctor for a 2nd opinion. Upon examination by the other doctor, I learned that I actually had sinusitis, a double ear infection, and bronchitis (with possible pneumonia setting in). Carol Kick was way off in her diagnosis. Then, finally this morning 4/28/16 I received a phone call from a nurse on behalf of Carol Kick, stating that they had just phoned in a prescription for me and told me what it was. It was an antibiotic that I CANNOT take because I am highly allergic to this medicine. They should have known better! This is all in my medical file and is NOT new information. I am very disappointed at the level of service I received, and at the seeming careless attention to my health- both at the time of the exam (misdiagnosis), the time delay at responding to my medical need, and lastly, the carelessness of prescribing medication that would have been potentially very harmful to me. I will not be returning.
