Ifechi A. Okonkwo, MD, MSC

Hi, I'm Ifechi, and I'm excited to be a family medicine resident at Medstar! I have a deep commitment to health justice and health literacy, particularly in underserved communities. I am Nigerian, and I grew up in Atlanta, GA before attending Tufts University SOM. I'm passionate about forming meaningful connections with patients and helping them feel seen, heard, and empowered. In my free time, I enjoy writing, interior design, braiding hair, and spending time with my family and friends.
