Dr. Onofrei is the most caring, friendly and knowledgeable Dr. I have ever had at the Neuroscience Center since I started there 2012 treating my Myasthenia Gravis.

Aug 12, 2025
CLINICAL NEUROSCIENCES CENTER

She was only in the room for a couple minutes so I really didn't get the opportunity to get to know her much or learn about her or her helping me. I do not know who will be following up with me on the rest of my appointments. Where I used to meet with Dr Reichert he was the only one that I saw and talked to there was no resident working with him so I feel kind of off that the resident may not know or understand completely my situation. It would be nice to have doctor Onofrei spend a little more time with me if she's going to be the MD working with my situation.

Dr Onofrei did a great job of assessing my current medical situation, she had done a thorough review of my file and consulted with the PA that I saw in Feb 2025. She was very thorough during the diagnosis of my situation. Great bed side manner, very concerned and caring, we never felt hurried or pushed to resolve, she took her time to test and make the best decision possible for me. I highly recommend her. She also made sure I was comfortable with the testing procedures, answered all our questions, and explained her diagnosis in detail to make sure we understood.

Doctor Onofrei has been the best doctor I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She has helped me through my journey of understanding my nerve pain and symptoms. I have been so lucky to have her as my neurologist. I dont know where I would be right now if it wasnt for her skilled and compassionate treatment.

Dr. Onofrei is a wonderful neurologist whose expertise is truly impressive. Beyond that, though, her "bedside" manner is the best I've ever seen. She truly makes me feel like I'm her only patient. She's never in a hurry, takes the time to listen, and genuinely seems to care. I've never had a provider who seems so intimately involved in my care. Truly an amazing doctor and person.

Dec 20, 2021

Dr. Onofrei is the most involved and attentive physician or care provider I've ever known. She's curious, focused, and seems completely disinterested in just moving through the appointment and on to the next, spending as much time as needed to understand and explain what's going on. She's fantastic, and I'm very fortunate to have her as my neurologist.
