Dr.Akbak and his wonderful staff really listen to you and come up with a plan to set you on the way of improving your situation. My knee had been killing me for months after a cortisone shot, I was so suprised at the relief I felt. I'm sure I'll need it repaired after the MRI comes back, but I have confidence in Dr. Akbar and his staff. Thank you all so much!

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr is wonderful but surgery scheduling staff not so much. Dr akbaar states I need a knee replacement and to see the scheduling lady. She was not at her office so the front seat lady was going to have her call me. I have left four voicemails and called a total of 6 times in two days and cannot get a return call. Therefore I cannot schedule surgery. I guess I will find a new Dr that the scheduling staff actually answers.

Feb 22, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Very knowledgeable provider. He listened to my concerns and addressed them. Excellent staff. My only complaint is the automated system. I had an appointment at 8am. I received several notifications to make sure that I arrived 15 mins early (7:45a). The office doesn't open until 8. Actually arrived at 7:40 and had to spend 20 mins waiting. The notifications should've adjusted the arrival time considering they don't open until 8 or maybe have appointments start at 8:15.

To seek another doctor. The staff does not work together to see what a patient needs, does not reach back to the patient, does not return phone calls, no professionalism, lacks empathy, [redacted potentially libelous portion] and works harder at making excuses rather than finding answers,solutions.
