What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Doctor Akbar was fast professional and honest. The condition I met with him for, I expected him to recommend surgery, which I would have went along with. He informed me that the surgery was no longer the practical or best option, instead recommending what was probably the least expensive option for treatment, which in my case was a wrist splint, massage and pain relieving ointment. I respect that kind fo honesty and integrity.
