How likely are you to recommend Dr. Ofikwu?
Most other doctors would have taken the easy route and my husband's quality of life would have been very difficult to say the least. But under Dr. Ofikwu''s skilled guidance before, during and after the surgery -- I have my husband back. We are so grateful that we stumbled into the ER at that devine appointed time to be blessed by this wonderful, caring doctor. I've lived in Las Vegas since 2003 and have experienced the lack of quality medical care here, but Dr. Ofikwu sets the bar high -- he is an awesome doctor. He IS the best in town no doubt. My husband's surgery was done in March of last year and he is doing just great and living his best life. Thank you Dr. Ofikwu!
