Uchenna Lizmay Umeh
Pediatrician & Teen Expert
Dr. Uchenna Umeh, fondly called Dr. Lulu by her patients is a board certified Pediatrician and Teen Expert with nearly three decades of clinical experience, a mother of two teenagers and one young adult, and the founder and CEO of Teen Alive, an online Teen Wellness resource, dedicated to creating awareness for, and fighting teen depression and teen suicide.
She attended medical school in Nigeria, completed her pediatric residency program at Howard University Hospital, and immediately started her own private practice in South Carolina where she practiced for 13 years before commissioning into the US Air Force as a Lieutenant Colonel. She served as commander at Maxwell AFB Alabama, and served as Medical Director of the Flagship Pediatric Ambulatory Clinic while stationed at Lackland AFB. After completing her 4 year Active duty term with an honorable discharge, she went back into the civilian workforce with Communicare Healthcare centers in San Antonio TX, where she was employed until September 2018. After noticing an alarming number of her teen patients presenting with depression, self harm, suicidal behavior and a host of other mental health problems, she resigned from her job to start speaking and educating the world about depression and suicide among teens and young adults.
Through her books, webinars, motivational speaking and coaching, she not only educates, but also helps teens FACE, CHANGE and ultimately OVERCOME the negative mindset that leads them down this dangerous path, so they can begin to enjoy living again.
She can be found on all the social media platforms. Notably, she has a weekly Sunday Facebook live broadcast on her page, Ask Doctor Lulu.
