 Do not recommend

All of the above one stars comments I agree with 100%. I’d add that she does not care enough to be prepared for your visit ahead of time and treats you as if you are just another $$.

what I think of these office

This place had been the worst office I have ever been too. Its very hard to talk to a real person. Took a week to get them to call my drugs and then still call in the wrong ones. Seeing the doctor for the first time she knows nothing about me and looks at me and ask if I every thought of getting surgery for my weight. Orders a drug for me they can't even get. I had it with this Doctor and her office I'm going to find a new Doctor

Very satisfied

I have been patient of Dr Akbar since 2004. I find she knows her profession very well and is about optimizing your health without filling you with medication. Many people want a pill & quick fix. Dr Akbar is looking at your long term health not just masking a symptom. She is not there to be your friend but an advocate for your health! You get what you put into your visit if you are not working toward your own health she knows it & puts in the same effort her patients do! I have recommended her to friends & family! Some don't want to change their diet so they changed their doctor stopped seeing her! She has helped me with my thyroid and hormone imbalances!
