Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Love her!!! She is an excellent doctor however, she remains quite busy

Laser was recommended and did not work. I asked a question about the treatment and she was rude in front of the intern. We were in disbelief.

I have been under Dr. Okeke's care for two years regarding my advanced closed angle glaucoma. Dr. Okeke has successfully brought my eye pressure down with surgery, and medication. I feel very blessed to have been referred to Dr. Okeke from another Ophthalmologist. In my opinion Dr. Okeke is an extraordinary physician/surgeon. There are not enough adjectives to describe Dr. Okeke; everything about her is praiseworthy. I have, and I will continue to highly recommend Dr. Okeke and Virginia Eye Consults to anyone in need of their care! Thank you Dr. Okeke for your care of expertise! Mischele Grayson

Dr Okeke is an exceptional doctor. I have been seeing her for many years. She has been my surgeon for cataract surgery. I have complete trust in her and her care as I do with the entire office. They set the bar very high for health care.

Approximately eleven years ago I was diagnosed with advanced glaucoma. In the past I unfortunately ignored routine appointments with the ophthalmologist because since I did not wear glasses my vision was good. I immediately referred to the Virginia Eye Clinic where I became Dr. Okeke’s patient. Treatment varied as medication and several eye procedures were performed. I can honestly say that I have not had any pain but some minor discomfort on rare occasions. Dr. Okeke and the staff have made all appointments pleasant and comfortable. I have highly recommended Dr. Okeke and Virginia Eye Clinic to several People.
