Dr. Akan is my favorite doctor. I can tell she genuinely cares for me, gives good achievable advice, and checks in on my family (we all see her). I enjoy going to see her and feel less anxiety than I typically do when going to the doctor. She has always listed to my health concerns and taken them seriously, giving advice or medications needed.

Dr Akan is wonderful. Listens very carefully, gives plenty of time for questions, ensures you understand, and remembers information from previous visit. She also figured out a treatment plan that works very well and alleviated my son's symptoms. Our family appreciates her very much.

I expected to have more time with the Dr. She only listened to my lungs. Which is good that there was no problem but she didn't check anything else.
