Dr. Okoh was pleasant and very easy to talk to. I was so disappointed to get a call stating that she would be leaving Medstar. I would've love to become a permanent patient.

Dr. Okoh was great! She really took the time to listen to me and my concerns. She asked questions to rule things out and explained what she thought was wrong! The only issue I had was that after being called in pretty quickly, I was stuck in the back room for over 45 minutes until she was able to see me.

Dr. Okon is the absolute best of the best—my visits are very relaxing, I’m well informed and advised regarding a better health regiment, she is very professional yet friendly; any questions I may have are explained so that I clearly understand with clarity. It’s a sheer joy having Dr. Okon as my family physician & she is fun, too. My daughter referred me to Dr. Okon when I relocated to the DMV area—the best referral my daughter could have made. My visits with her have always been quite enjoyable; can’t wait until my next appointment!??

The medical assistants were extremely professional and kind. I was very impressed by them. Front desk staff could be a bit more friendly. Dr Okoh was very nice and answered my questions, though the exam itself could have been a bit more thorough.
