He was very kindhearted & excellent communication. He made me feel safe telling him what I was experiencing and took everything going on with me into consideration to create a plan of action that was fitting. Things like my high blood pressure, vaping, & small children. He was very insightful & I feel better just knowing that he’s overseeing my medical needs.

This was one of the worst doctor’s office experiences I’ve had. The office reeked of weed, it was disorganized and chaotic, and it took over two hours to be seen. When Dr. Okafor finally arrived, he gave me some convoluted explanation of how my insurance is in network but they might have to bill me directly for the visit. I told him i had flu symptoms and he didn’t even take my temperature and just gave me a handwritten prescriptions for OTC meds. When he was taking my blood pressure, he coughed directly in my face. There were about 5 young men wandering around the halls that seemed to know the Dr. Okafor but didn’t seem to be patients. It felt very unprofessional and scammy.

Although it took a while to get into the actual patient room, the Doctor was very kind and compassionate as we discussed what was going on with me. He helped me make a plan.

I've never left a negative review for a doctor before, but I would not recommend this office to anyone. I had booked for a 9:30 appointment and waited around for an hour before I was informed that the doctor wasn't in the office (supposedly due to traffic). I was asked to reschedule. I rescheduled for the following day, and it was still a 45-minute wait in an oppressively warm and uncomfortable office. When I was finally seen, Dr. Okafor did a blood draw. Every time I've had blood drawn it was done by a nurse, not a doctor, so this was very irregular. Dr. Okafor missed the vein on the first try and had to switch arms. The process was more painful and unpleasant than usual, and involved the doctor feeling around under my skin with the needle for a while before finally finding the vein. Dr. Okafor himself was pleasant enough but my overall impression was a lack of organization and professionalism.
Dr Okafor is my favorite PCP I’ve had in years! He took the time to listen to my symptoms in my initial visit and has kept his office open when I’ve ran late after work to make sure I got my RX refill. He always gets me in and out without making me feel rushed and is so attentive. He gives it to you straight with no fluff while still having good bedside manor.
Dr. O is very attentive, kind and knowledgeable!

Great virtual visit, doctor saw me within 5 minutes of my appointment time, listened to my needs, and explained the medication and eased my fear about potential side effects.
Running late but know he will be great!
Verified patient
Great and personable but to the point. Can tell he cares about people snd that’s what you want in a doctor. Plus like for real for real he’s smart and knows what he’s doing too. Confidence with him knowing my health is looked after .
Verified patient
Dr. Okafor has a wonderful disposition and you can clearly tell he cares about his patients. This also means a lot of patients want to see him hence the lobby had 4 people when I was there and I had to wait about 30 minutes.
Verified patient
Dr.Okafor seems like he’s only in this position for the money. He eventually stopped picking up my phone calls and hasn’t attempted to reach out. I would not recommend anyone see him for any serious issues because he’s just not interested.
He thought my 9:30am appointment was 10
Verified patient
I am so grateful for Dr Okafor. I have finally found a physician that treats me with professionalism and care. You are not just another patient , he actually cares about your health and your well being. He has correctly diagnosed me when numerous doctors failed. Thank you Dr. Okafor!!!!
Verified patient
Always great friendly and honest.
Verified patient
First time seeing Dr. Okafor, he’s great. Friendly staff and genuinely looking to help improve your day-to-day life through his practice. Would recommend seeing him, very knowledgeable person. - TD
Been to doctor Okafor for a while now and he’s always been an amazing provider. I’ve noticed he hasn’t been prompt with time, makes patients wait, and also hasn’t been himself and considerably helpful with my diagnosis
I left the office after waiting for 20 minutes for the Dr. to arrive, so he did not treat me. I needed to leave by a certain time (which he knew). Judging by other reviews, this is not usual. He seemed pleasant enough on the phone.
Very great dr
