I've been seeing Dr. Obi for several years now and have been very pleased with his service.  We've done the appropriate testing as situations occur and adjusted medications as needed. Procedures have been accomplished and have been very helpful.  He understands my glitch-y and aging parts and is willing to discuss alternative treatments based on my individual needs. Sometimes he runs late, but that is only because somebody NEEDED a little more time than anticipated and I don't mind that kind of wait--next time it might be ME having a complicated day.  The "tele-receptionist" system is new and a little weird, but once you have used it a few times it seems to work well.  I'm currently in the process of moving into the Medicare system and am making my plan choices based on my ability to see Dr. Obi!
