Meet Dr. Bankole Osuntokun
Dr. Bankole Osuntokun pediatric gastroenterologist, provides care, diagnosis, treatment and education for children and adolescents with diseases and disorders of the digestive system.
The entire gastroenterology department has been such an amazing team to work with for my son's care, but Dr. Osuntokun has been nothing shy of a miracle for my son. He goes above and beyond always, and seems to understand my son's condition and complexities so well he 'speaks his language' as we say often when trying to explain it to other providers. I am so resoundingly grateful for the amazing care my son receives from Dr. Osuntokun and the Cooks GI team. You guys are THE BEST! Hands down. Thank you so much for all you do! – Patient family

Everything was great! It was really sad and scary having to come to Cooks but we were instantly amazed just pulling into the parking garage alone. Our daughter is too young to know where she was or to remember anything but even as parents we felt such relief and joy walking through the halls. Cooks is a very special place and although we hope to never be back we will forever be supporters.

Dr Osuntokun has made it VERY easy for us to access care for our daughter's very difficult condition. We live in Amarillo, and these virtual visits help us out IMMENSELY. We love that we can see him, he can see her and that the visits are focused on her needs above all else. We recommend Cook Children's to other parents and tell them about the ease of the Virtual Visit Technology.

This was our last appt with Dr. O. We've have been with him for 13+ years and he has provided my son with great care. He helped determine and diagnose my son's issues after several appointments with another GI doctor. We will always be greatful to him and the care he provided. We will miss seeing him, however it means my son's issues have been resolved. Thank you Dr O!
