Dr Okoe listens very considerate. She puts my needs and concerns as a high priority. I will highly recommend her to anyone and everyone I know. She performed a full hysterectomy on me and cared so much about how I was doing A+++++++++++Doctor
Really nice and helpful. Really good Dr
Met Dr. Okoe for first time, I was pleased with her level of interest, demeanor, professionalism and her wanting me to make a f/u appt to discuss med, she recommend so I didn't fall through the cracks.
it was really good. Dr ohkoe is the best
I was very impress with Dr. Okoe!
Dr Okoe is the best.
Good experience
Thanks Dr Okoe, you are one of the best!
Awesome provider and staff !! Definitely made me feel at ease.
Dr. Okoe is the absolute best provider. She made me feel well treated and safe during the delivery of our baby.
The L&D nurses were hands down wonderful!! They all took such great care of us.
she impressed me with her explanations.
I could not have asked for a better, more down to earth and honest doctor. Dr. Okoe is amazing and such a blessing! I am beyond grateful to have her as my doctor.
Good experience. Only thing is communication about rules & guidelines. Was told different things & made the visit stressful. Doctor was nice, just need her to do a thorough job - check everything.
I love Dr. Okoe. She's the absolute best dr. can always talk to her about anything. I feel like I can trust her. She's awesome.
DR Okoe was the best doctor I have ever had I would definitely recommend her to all of my family and friends she is the best of the best !!!!
GREAT EXPERIENCE! she every helpful during entire pregnancy and honestly one of the best doctors I've ever met
love Dr Okoe.My husband and I went together for a prenatal visit. When we left my husband agreed that she was laid back and easy to talk to. He wanted to make sure I would see her again.
amazing!
I adore Dr. Okoe. She is one of the reasons my pregnancy has been so easy.
i look forward to every appointment with Dr Okoe. she makes me feel so comfortable
This was a good visit, and Dr. Okoe was helpful and forthcoming. I look forward to working with her again.
i love my doctor shes AMAZING! simply the best!
couldn't be more happier
She is excellent. Converses casual with me also. Does have my best health interest in mind.
Her concerns for me both mentally and physically
Dr. Okoe is the best! She is knowledgeable, yet explains things in a way that the average person can understand. She respects my values and believes and was very sympathetic when I explained a strange situation that had recently happened.
Dr. Okoe and Dr. X are the best!! They are concerned doctors who explain things easily understandable. I ran into Dr. X after seeing Dr. Okoe and he stopped and asked me if everything was ok. absolutely love both of them@
She was terrible. It was my first time and she did not make me comfortable. She just did everything without explaining. She gave me zero answers. She was very rude.
BAD!!!! I will not return. She was very rude.
I like Dr. Okoe, she's very nice, optimistic & funny. When I message her on MY ADVOCATE, she responds right away. I appreciate being able to reach her whenever I need to.
Receptionist was rude. Did not appreciate the manner she used to point out I was late. I was not more than 5-10 minutes late. Especially annoying since the office cancelled two of my prior appointments which is why I picked a time that was harder for me to make. Maybe she should have apologized on behalf of the practice for having to cancel two of my prior appointments and thank me for rescheduling. If she still feels the need to point out people's tardiness she should work on her delivery so it doesn't come across so rude.
Dr. Okoe was very caring, compassionate during my visit. Explained things in an easy to understand manner. Also - Has good sense of humor.
she is a great doctor
Dr Okoe is the best! She is caring and kind. She is always looking out for what is best for me and explains everything in a manner that I can relate to...and always is concerned for my wellbeing.
Dr Oloe is my angel. She virtually saved my life with emergency surgery following hemorrhaging after my hysterectomy which she did not perform. She and I were in touch daily to follow up on my recovery. I couldn't ask for a more caring and compassionate doctor....she is my angel!
During my visit w/Dr. Okoe she left the room to take a phone call (right in the middle of a conversation we were having). Her cell phone was in her pocket. Very unprofessional!
She did not remember that she (met) saw me last December for a medical issue and, did not even ask about it. She also seemed very dismissive with other issues I am currently dealing with.
Dr. OKOE is outstanding. She is a true listener and respects my opinions and requests as well as answering all questions thoroughly.
I'm so lucky to have worked and plan on continuing working with this team. the dedication thisteam has for their clients doesn't go unnoticed and is greatly appreciated!
I love Dr. Okoe. She is the most attentive and friendly doctor I know. She really makes me feel like she knows me and has time for me, even if my issue feels small.
Dr. Okoe had a student with her for this visit. I consented to her being present. The student actually performed the pap exam and was obviously inexperienced. it was less pleasant than had an experienced doc done the pap but also I know leaning takes time so I don't want to be harsh.
Dr. Okoe was very knowledgeable, she took her time and never made me feel rushed. She answered all of my questions & concerns, I felt that she was really listening to me.
she has a great personality and gives information needed that I didn't know
she was great! made me feel at ease!
Dr. Okoe is a very compassionate dr. that cares about her patients. I always feel respected and that I receive the best care possible.
I thank Dr. Jamilah J. Okoe because I think she is very professional and humane. Gave me a correct diagnosis and fast. May God continue giving that capacity THANK YOU.
She is a very nice and respectable provider. She always answers any questions I have and explains things I might be confused about. Overall she does a great job and I don't have any complaints.
Dr. Okoe is brilliant, kind, and empathetic. She talks with me about my health and has prescribed medicine that cured a problem I had before I became her patient. I am very happy to have her as my gynecologist.
Dr. Okoe made labor and delivery a memorable and comfortable experience. She was so kind and truly cared about my well being. I am so glad she was my medical provider for this event in my life.
Dr Okoe is the best Dr for me I really appreciate her.
I thought she was very upbeat, positive and empathetic. I really liked her personality and care.
By far the best experience I've had at a dr.'s office. Would recommend to other people.
My 1st visit here. Excellent provider. Extremely attentive, knowledgeable and caring. Communicated - listened very well and spent as much time as needed.
I love Jamela okoe she is a good doc
Dr. Okoe is far above the average Doctor. She is caring and compassionate, patient & understanding. She goes above and beyond a normal doctor.
Dr. Okoe is the BEST!!
This physician was very thorough with great bedside manner. I trust her judgment in my best interests as my provider.
This was my first visit with Dr.Okoe and I felt very comfortable with her and her staff. I will be following up with her in 2 weeks after completion of some testing.
Overall it was great. She was everyting I was hoping for. I am still waiting on my ultrasound results which has been a week. Otherwise I'M HAPPY.
The service from the Specialist is good.
Dr. Okoe is very compassionate and understanding she takes her time and makes sure you understand what she is talking about.
I was very pleased with Dr. Okoe. She was very easy to talk to and was gentle during the exam.
She was absolutely fantastic, knowledgeable, fun, respectful, can't say enough good things about her. Made my routine GYN visit a pleasure, which is not easy to do!!!
I had a procedure that day, was kind of nervous - but all went smooth and was very happy with the Dr. Okoe & her assistants, they didn't make me feel an undergoing a procedure. Thank you.
this was my first time visit and I was statisfied .
She was very nice and polite she explained everything in a way that I understood.
It was very good. Dr. Okoe is very good and I was pleased.
Very good.
This was my initial visit with Dr. Okoe and she was very friendly and professional. She answered all of my questions and I was treated like a partner in my health care. I felt valued as a patient and did not feel rushed or hurried. I thought the visit went well and am very happy with my new doctor.
Very happy with the doctor
I did not meet with Dr. Okoe on this date because the system was down. I waited over an hour before I had to leave for work. The lovely staff was able to reschedule my appointment to 12/18/18. My only suggestion would be to have the staff inform patients of this when they check in.
I was very disappointed in Dr. Okoe's bedside manner from my delivery & forward. I will not continue seeing her as my OBGYN.
one of the best experiences I've had going to a new Doctor
Dr. Okoe is a wonderful doctor. she is caring, patient, understanding and listens to my concerns. I'm very grateful to have found her and her team.
Dr. Okoe is a very pleasant doctor. You can tell that she really cares about her patients and what's best for them and their well being.
I got a call about my report from the biopsy but I never got a call from scheduler about D&C. I called asking them to call this week of 12-10 and still haven't heard -
I just moved back to the area from Az & needed to see a gynecologist. My primary Dr referred me to Dr Okoe. She was wonderful & knowledgable & helpto ease my anxiety about problem I'm experiencing. I would highly recommend her.
loved this Doctor and already recommended her to coworkers. she was very personable and puts you at ease.
dr always explains so you can understand what happening
great!
I Absoutley love dr okeo! Shes beautiful inside and out and always makes me feel good about myself, even when other dr's dont. Im so happy I found her and she always stears me in the right direction.
Very professional, knowledgeable and nice dr. will definitely keep Okoe as primary gynecologist.
I have the utmost confidence and respect for Dr. Okoe-Kusi, I truly feel she respects my opinions, thoughts and knowledge of my body.
Dr. Okoe is smart, friendly, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. I will be referring her to everyone I know !!!
Dr. Okoe is the BEST. She listens, cares, and seems to be the only doctor who really wants to help
amazing
excellent
Loved her!
we are having our first baby and Dr Okoe has been a God send to my husband and I. Dr Okoe has helped us tremendously in navigating the ups and downs of a somewhat complicated pregnancy! Thank you Dr Okoe for all you do!!!
Dr. Okoe did a very good job of describing my ultrasound results and possible things that may be wrong and I really appreciated that. She also printed off some info for me on possible conditions.
I saw Dr. Okoe for the 1st time for a painful problem, referred by X. Dr. Okoe was excellent. Will continue to be my doctor. X is also awesome!
This provider is amazing on every aspect of care. From beginning to end!
I love Dr. Okoe, she is the best!
I was referred to Dr. OKOE by my internist nurse practitioner for a post menopausal gynecological issue. Dr. Okoe had reviewed my history thoroughly, interviewed me thoroughly and truly listened and respected my knowledge, opinions, and views. She is highly competent, compassionate, respectful, easy to communicate with. I will continue in her practice. The receptionists & medical assistants were kind, efficient & caring.
I absolutley Love Dr.Okoe and her nurses. She is my OBGYN and I am currently pregnant. They always ask many relevant questions and seem to really care about me and my growing child and family. I had the opportunity to switch to a closer provider but I could not imagine going through this pregnancy without her and those nurses! I recommend her to everyone I know.
she is the best Dr I have seen in a while. she really listens and understands, while genuinely caring
I enjoy mine and her conversations. Shes real, funny and compassionate. I always want to be seen by her. She figured out what was wrong with me in one visit then the 3 other dr's Ive seen in 4 years. I adore her and her staff!
Dr.Okoe was wonderful. I was looking for a second opinion and looking for a new permanent doctor. I liked her so much I will be switching to have her as my regular OB/GYN.
My provider listened carefully to my concerns.
