He is a gentle smart doctor that performed robotic surgery on me. I highly recommend him. He has also successfully performed bladder surgery and a few systoscopys on me. He listens without a rush and answers questions and recommends things when asked directly what should be done.

I made an appointment to see Dr Mmeje due to his stellar reviews on line. The staff here at Banner Anderson is very efficient and kind. Dr Mmeje is a very friendly, kind and thorough doctor. He explained my kidney condition and gave me options for treatment. I had many questions and concerns, and he answered them all during the visit. He did not pressure me to choose an option and encouraged me to think about what I wanted to do. I am extremely happy with Dr. Mmeje and his staff. Do not hesitate to see him if you need a urologist. I am very grateful I found him.

I have only met Dr Mmeje face to face for less than an hour. After discussing my situation and why I had chosen him. He smiled and told me. I can make this happen. A month later just as he said, l traveled to Banner from Boise ID and he performed my operation. I feel blessed that Dr Mmeje took the time to see me in the first place and true to his word Made it Happen.
