Ob/Gyn Chief – Dr. Onochie

“Obstetrics and Gynecology in Pembroke is very busy and satisfying. You will have an opportunity to do as much as you wish and have both technical and financial support from the recently expanded Pembroke Regional Hospital. This area is quiet and ideal for raising a family. Schools are excellent and my children have benefited from the superb educational opportunities available as well as the many sport and outdoor activities offered. Community support and appreciation have been great. Pembroke is close to several bigger cities. If you want a busy Ob/Gyn practice, enjoy your work, enjoy winter and summer sporting activities, and want to raise your children in a quiet environment… Pembroke is for you!!! ”
