"A Mount Sinai Nurse is a nurse who shows teamwork and empathy."

Before becoming a nurse in Mount Sinai Morningside’s Post Surgery and Med/Surg Unit, Uzoma Nwaekpe trained as a lawyer in Nigeria, driven by a passion for justice and service to humanity. Today, that same sense of purpose guides his nursing practice. Thank you, Uzoma, for the heart and humanity you bring to your patients and the community.
