I have told family members with very similar symptoms about Dr. Ofori-Darko and they wished they had a doctor like that but don’t live in the area of his practice.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Doctor is one of the best physicians I have worked with...and I have seen many. Truly a caring man who really cares. His ordering of tests and sharing results is so encouraging considering goals we are working towards. His staff is friendly and open to any questions. Three members of our family are treated by him/his office. We all feel the same.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr. Ofori-Darko has been my Doctor for more than 30 years. I have many medical issues and many specialists in addition to my PCP. Dr. Ofori-Darko had always provided excellent care, has an excellent bedside manner, has been completely transparent with me(and my family)about all of my care, risks, etc. On a scale of 1-10, he’s a 50++++. I believe that he’s the very best doctor(of any kind)I have EVER met! I’m devastated at the thought of him retiring(although I know that he deserves it)!

Nov 20, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
He did not listen it took me 9 months to get into this office even after several visits to the ER. My appointment was rescheduled in that 9 months at least twice and I got to spend maybe 15 minutes telling him what was on on my to have him and his clinical staff give me advice on my care they knew would cause me pain and another trip to the ER. I have no confidence in this provider at all.

Nov 11, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I have had one office visit with Dr. Ofari-Darko, after quite a few years with Dr. Holtz (until his retirement) Based on very limited interaction, I liked my time with the doctor. Time will tell about how well he/his staff meet my needs. His staff needs some better training, though. I experienced a receptionist with attitude. No need for that.

Oct 15, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
My experience has always been good. But I need labs once a year and I don't receive a call with results and this past year 2024 the lab apparently missed some test and no one knew that until the day before my following yearly appointment. I don't like that. If I am asked to get labs and I do that, I expect a results review within a certain timeframe.
