Dr and team are efficient and thorough with exam and care

Dr Okonwa is one of the best dr's I've been to

Everything was thoroughly explained

Very professional and personable

Dr. Okonkwo has often been rude, degrading and disrespectful. This time he could not have been better!

I know he is the best surgeon. I know he has more important things to do than worry about my minor brain injury but it does not feel good to feel as though you are bothering someone when contemplating the largest decision of your life! He seemed bothered that I was still deciding on a course of action despite this being our second conversation ever.

My heroes in this practice.

Good

Always a good experience with Dr O and his PA's

I appreciated the honesty about the proposed surgery. He did not sugar coat it.

I feel very blessed by the whole experience

Dr Okonkwo and his team are absolutely amazing. I've had three spine surgeries performed by Dr. Okonkwo. The care before and after has been extraordinary. He always has time for you whether he's behind or not. Word will never be enough to express my gratitude for the positive changes in my life!!

Dr. Okonkwo and the physician assistants, whole team, were kind, caring, compassionate and very helpful!!

He brought an angle to my situation that no other physician had noticed. As a result, I will do less extensive surgery on my spine, which is less risky long term.

Dr Okonkwo was amazing. He made me feel at ease right away. And looked me in the eye so I felt like he cared about helping with my problem

I have already referred Dr. Okonkwo and will continue. He was easy to talk to and discuss my spinal issues. To me he must be one of the best if not the best at UPMC.

Doctor does wonders

Always a pleasure to chat with Dr Okonkwo!

Feel very worth the 2 and a half hour drive made from altoona pa. Felt a caring , compassionate feeling from dr. Okonkwo. Made me feel at ease . He listened to me in a caring way. Felt like he cared. Explained everything in a way could understand.told me the positives and negatives I should expect which I appreciated

All 3 doctors listened and provided feedback on possible solutions to resolve my conditions

Dr. Okonkwo and his Residents and Fellows were great. I so appreciate how Dr. Okonkwo comes into the exam room, sits down and gives you his total attention. He listens well, explained the probable cause of my back pain and listened to my response and questions. Wonderful physician!

I have recommended Dr. Okonkwo to others as he is the best at what he does. I appreciate that his office got me in so quickly.

Dr.David Okonwko has always been very professional but also takes the time to explain everything to me so I understand. Answers any questions and I am one hundred percent satisfied with the care he has given me.

Dr. Okonkwo tends to brush over potential side effects and risks. I would have liked to see the x-ray and CT films as part of the explanation.

Dr. Okonkwo is an excellent doctor. He is not only a highly skilled doctor, he is easy to talk with and hears what you are saying. That has become a rarity with most doctors.

I have recommended dr o

Thank you

There aren't enough words to describe the faith I have in Dr. Okonkwo. He operated on my back twice. First surgery was serious and long loss of blood. When I first saw him he assured me Iwas going to be FINE! The second surgery was very difficult I was stressed I fell it was emergency surgery. He stated he'd fix my back again! I would trust him with my life. Oh wait I did and so thankful to God for Dr. Okonkwo. He told ME to call him any time If If I feel the need to see him. Well all I say I'm not a Steeler Star football player but he did make me feel like one. God bless him and staff!

The doctor was wonderful

Dr. Okonkwo is one in-a-million who has all the characteristics, personality, knowledge, wisdom and experience that make up an awesome doctor and spinal surgeon.

Doctor Onkonkwo is a tremendous surgeon and person. I cannot say enough about him!

Took his time to understand my goalsExcellent

Dr Okonkwo is alway attentive and addressed all my concerns in a thorough manner.

Can't say enough positive things. The best.

Dr O was always upfront with how well my surgery would go.

Dr. Okonkwo is simply the best!! My family and myself are so thankful for all he has done for me! I refer him to anyone I talk to that I think could use his services.

I would always recommend Dr. Okonkwo and staff.

Dr. Okonkwo was wonderful. He sat down and listened well to my concerns. Reassured me and then discussed annual follow-up to keep a watchful eye on any deterioration of my scoliosis and possible need for surgery. His reputation is spot on!

I have already recommended Dr Okonkwo to people I know

Dr. Okonkwa is very forthcoming and thorough

Dr.Okonkwo and his PA Alicia Bergell are always extremely caring and accommodating.
