About the Provider

About Dr. Omeruah
Chiazom Omeruah, DO, received her medical education at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine and took a Family Practice residency at Aria Health in Langhorne, PA. 
Prior to joining Emory, she practice medicine in both Pennsylvania and Alabama for several years. She moved to Georgia three years ago and worked during that time in the southern metro-Atlanta area. 
Dr. Omeruah is an osteopath and family practice specialist, seeing patients from pediatrics to geriatrics.  She grew up in Nigeria and speaks both English and the Igbo dialect.

Getting to the root of health problems
As an osteopath, her focus is on the body and disease process -- not just symptoms, but underlying processes that have led to those symptoms. This approach can also help prevent diseases as it points to preventive measures the patient can take.
Dr. Omeruah works with patients to determine the biological, physiological, mental and lifestyle factors that contribute to their health.

Listening carefully to every patient
When a patient has their first visit, she lets them take the lead. “Some are super-knowledgeable, very verbal and expressive about what’s going on with them,” she explains. “Some are more self-conscious, so I adapt my approach to their needs. My goal is that they each feel comfortable to tell me what’s going on.”
“It’s most important that the patient walks away feeling heard -- and helped,” says Dr. Omeruah. “I also make sure they understand the instructions I’ve given them, and if I need to make those easier, I will.”

Making changes, one step at a time
“Lifestyle changes are tricky,” she says. “Everyone’s ability is different, so it’s best to start slow, with one step at a time. And we try to make it as fun as possible. Everyone is different, so we take that into consideration.” 
This is a “judgement-free zone,” says Dr. Omeruah. “It truly is, because I’m human, too, we all need help. My patients can relate to me because I admit I’m not perfect, and certainly don’t claim to be.”

    Dr. O admitted to not thoroughly reviewing my chart to understand my condition prior to prescribing me gabapentin. I advised her I had negative affects with taking thos medicine to which she showed no level of empathy or concern. She only offered to have Emory assign me a new pcp with no apology or attempt to truly assist me with my health concerns.

    Reviewed on 1/23/2026

    Dr. O had no real regard for my concerns. She rushed through the appointment and prescribed me medication that had further negative effects simply because she did not review my chart to confirm what has been going on with my health. She showed no empathy with regard to my concerns with my health nor was she willing to advocate for me with declining my request to complete short term disability paperwork for me to be able to focus on my continued health concerns and a true resolution. I had to do my own research to determine the gabapentin prescribed by her was worsening my thyroid related symptoms. She did not order the appropriate xray to review my shoulder and I just met with her to make this request to which she did not offer to oblige. I am thoroughly disappointed in her lack of professionalism or consideration for me as a patient. My experience with her has caused me to waste time, money, and energy I do not have with just trying to get the proper assessment and care.

    I am sure Dr. Omeruah was having a long day and she was obviously already running behind. But during our entire interaction, she treated me like a list to be checked off, not a person to be listened to. I had a terrible head cold and was missing work to make this appointment, and after waiting 30+ minutes for the doctor after the nurse left, the doctor walked into the exam room, went right to her computer screen, and robotically asked me the same questions the nurse had. All without so much as making eye contact. My wife and I then had to remind her of basic facts about my case that we'd already gone over, before finally getting the prescriptions I needed.

    Always a great experience with Dr. Omeruah. She has awesome bedside manners. In the past I am grateful for her professionalism and how she has treated me and provided referrals that has helped me tremendously. On this most recent visit I'm glad she ordered the tests that she did. I am appreciative of how quickly she responded with my test results. I was also impressed that my Pulmonary Doctor also reached out to me the same day. I love my Emory doctors and how they show concern for ME!
