The most common concern raised in reviews relates to wait times, with several patients noting they waited 45 minutes or longer past their scheduled appointment times. A few patients mentioned long waits for surgery scheduling, with one patient expressing disappointment about a six-month wait and feeling they should have been seen during that period to monitor their deteriorating condition. One review described the provider as appearing "somewhat distracted" and taking things lightly, while another single review mentioned he seemed "in a rush to get you out." One patient noted that while Dr. Okafor is knowledgeable and professional, he could improve his conversational approach by being more talkative rather than just asking if patients have questions.
