Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Online paperwork process was easy. Check in smooth. Dr. Okereke and her assistant were wonderful. Warm, professional and great communication. Wish I had seen her a year ago!

The office runs extremely efficiently and there is no waiting in the reception area or in the exam room. Dr. Okereke LISTENS and takes your entire body into consideration. For example, she noticed that I was anxious about a planned procedure, she asked me how I felt and had a plan to address my anxiety as well as my pain. Her treatment, a cortisone injection in the correct place ended my pain. I had been to several doctors who were unable provide relief for me. Dr. Okereke diagnosed me in 15 minutes! I have recommended her to several friends who have had similar experiences with her. I highly recommend Dr. Okereke for anyone suffering from chronic pain.

Dr. Okereke was very friendly and empathetic when dealing with my problem and her decisions regarding my treatment this visit seem to me to be excellent, as they were more than 8 years ago when I had other problems and consulted her.

I like the fact that Dr Okereke really listens to what you have to say about how you’re feeling. I feel that this allows her to better evaluate where you are on the pain scale and better recommend a treatment that works for you.

Dr. Okereke was flat out aggressive to me in a post op appointment, to the point of asking me "why are you here" after she received notice that I wanted a referral to another doctor. This doctor is not professional, did not address my questions and told me the only way to solve my back pain issues was to "change my life." From the first appointment, I felt like she was minimizing my back pain, and had empathy.
