Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Okwechime?
Dr. Okwechime greeted me with a smile and handshake, she immediately put me at ease as she asked what I had done in the past for my psoriasis, she spoke at length as to what we would try, she told me not to worry that we would get the problem under control. the very least manageable. I cannot articulate how this doctor lifted my mood and spirit. If this doctor should move I will follow her practice.
