    Adekemi Oguntala, MD or Dr. O as her patients like to call her is a teen doctor, speaker and blogger from the Bay Area.  She is known for her energetic, hip and real approach to very difficult teen issues such as sexual health, parent communication and teen development.

    Dr. O Received her medical training at what was the Medical College of Pennsylvania and Hahnemann University and is now called Drexel University. She completed her pediatric residency at St Christopher’s Hospital for Children also in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and her teen medicine fellowship at Stanford in Palo Alto, California. She now runs a busy clinic in the South San Francisco Area where she sees teens with issues such as overweight, substances use and abuse, sexual orientation and gender identification issues, family planning and reproductive health concerns, depression, eating disorders and victims of sexual, physical and verbal violence.

    Dr. O has presented at National Conferences, educated and coached  parents, teens, clinicians, as well as those who work with teens so they could improve their relationship with the teen(s) in their lives. She is an incredible speaker that really knows how to connect with kids” as Mr Cresta, a teacher from the SSF area once said. Her speaking style allows teens to “feel comfortable and ask questions they would normally not want to ask” said Giovanni a teen from the East Bay school system. She is also able to connect with adults like James who runs a youth basketball center in New York who found her to be “Amazingly aware of how teens think and how easy steps can change how they interact with you” and parents have commented that she “saved their relationship with the teen in their life” said Brianna from Detroit, Michigan who reads her blog daily.
