Dr. Hunt-Okolo delivered my first child in 2013. She remained calm and reassuring even during a brief period of stress. I will never forget her kindness and skill as a physician. I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. May her soul Rest In Peace. She was a blessing to me and countless other women in Jackson, TN.
