Dr. Enemchukwu received her undergraduate degree from Duke University. She subsequently earned her combined degree in Medicine (MD) and Public Health (MPH) at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and Gillings School of Global Public Health. She completed her General Surgery and Urology training at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. She then went on to complete a prestigious fellowship in Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Surgery with concurrent training in Male Voiding Dysfunction and Neurourology at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City. She specializes in medical and minimally invasive surgical management of male and female conditions, including pelvic organ prolapse (cystocele, rectocele, vaginal vault prolapse, and uterine prolapse repairs, including concurrent vaginal hysterectomy), female genitourinary fistula, urinary tract infection, overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, hematuria, urinary retention, mesh complications, refractory fecal incontinence, ureteral strictures and urethral stricture disease (including graft reconstruction). She performs open, robotic, endoscopic and laser surgery. She also specializes in uterine sparing robotic pelvic organ prolapse repair. Her research interests are in the areas of refractory overactive bladder in elderly/frail, neurogenic and underserved patient populations, detrusor underactivity, quality of life, patient outcomes, quality improvement, patient satisfaction, and shared decision making. Her clinical interests also include International work, with previous outreach projects in Honduras, Uganda and Nigeria.
