    I had a minor in office procedure with Dr. Onayemi and I cannot stress enough how phenomenal she was as well as her nurse Angela! They were both professional and kind and made sure I felt comfortable during the entire appointment. I felt NO pain ! I will be recommending this office to everyone I know.

    Actually, this survey seems to be focused on items extraneous to the actual problem. The treatment was specifically for an arm injury and the patient has other forms of emotional/psychologic support. The only suggestion is that while the Dr's English skills are very good, she may need to slow down with elderly patients who require more absorption time for instruction. The staff overall was competent and helpful.

    The provider was excellent. The office staff. I feel needs a little bit more training in the area of customer service and patient understanding because the excellent service of the provider does not spill out to the office.
