Dr. Okafor was kind, efficient, knowledgeable, professional when explaining my eye condition and treatment plan. I highly recommend him!
Very professional
As a doctor he is very good, but he is usually running very late.
I like the explanations as to why and his sense of humor.
Our appt was a little rushed due to being behind schedule but his care is still great.
He is very personable and thorough. The staff is friendly and accommodating.
Very knowledgeable & thorough. Great bedside manner. Highly recommend.
professional, clear analysis for my eye examination
Dr is way too busy. Too many patients
Other than the fact that he sometimes talks too fast, Dr. Okafor is fantastic!!!
