Dr. Onkka has the best demeanor. After he introduced himself, he explained what was going to happen during the appointment. After he went through the assessment and exam, he clearly laid out the options of what next steps might be. I felt heard AND I didn't feel as though he was recommending solutions "just because".

When Dr Onkka, met me as an impatient in the hospital. He was well toned, sounded very caring. He asked questions that I did not have to ask. He was patient, he listened to me. I am really lost with words on how comfortable I felt speaking with him. I have a good feel for people, if it's good or bad. I felt extremely relaxed and comfortable with him. I am still seeing him as an outpatient. First visit yesterday, and I felt that same warm caring energy. Thank you so much DR. ONKKA I TRULY APPRECIATE YOU‼️

Doctor Onkka keeps up on the latest medical advances and shares his knowledge with me. He encourages good communication. He and his office staff answer my online questions quickly. It's not difficult to get an appointment. Test results are posted quickly.

He had reviewed my chart beforehand and asked clarifying questions. He did a thorough examination of my upper extremities where my pain is currently. He explained his initial thoughts and what he’d order. And stated how he would communicate the results and what the next steps would be.
