Everyone who knows Dr Koboka’s practice knew that it was just like a public health care centre, if you don’t go there early, you will find a long queue. His clients say this was due to his affordable prices, passion for healing and compassion.
One of his regular clients said that he would call to do a follow up on how she is doing and how the medication is treating her.
