        I have several doctors including gastro specialists, cardiologist, etc. Dr. A was by far the most professional, knowledgeable, and competent provider I have ever had. I felt well taken care of and know how to follow up on my pancreatic cysts.

        Dr. Akshintala is incredibly intelligent and insightful about my GI issues. His "bedside manner" is stellar-he gives you his full attention and explains all of the details thoroughly. I am reluctant to see any other GI doctors (have seen several others at JH which were not as good).
