Wonderful doctor. Treated me for complicated wrist fracture. He was knowledgeable, experienced and skilled surgeon. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Okezie is a brillant surgeon. I was in a one car accident where I fractured my foot in August 2023. I have to say that I was scared of losing my foot. Dr Okezie performed two surgeries on me within a week. Both surgeries were successful. After the surgeries, I saw Dr Okezie for follow up appointments. He explained in detail to me how my foot was healing. Just about a year after the accident, I'm walking the way I had done so before the accident occurred. Dr Okezie is a fantastic doctor and I would recommend him.

I come from a family of physicians and found Dr. Okezie to be a very careful and knowlegeable diagnostician. He helped me understand an intermittent problem involving cartilage in my knee. He could have easily recommended surgery but instead gave me an alternative non-surgical path that has been 100% successful.

I have had three experiences with Dr. Okezie. He operated on a fracture of my wrist in 2002/3. He consulted on a fractured elbow which had been repaired in California in 2006, and recommended another California surgeon to fix a bad surgery which had been performed there. He was my wife's surgeon for extensive damage to her shoulder due to a fall in 2015. Dr. Okezie spends time with his patients to explain things and deal with the human side of the injury as well as the surgical repair. In my opinion, he is the best and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
