Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Felt rushed and dismissed
I went to Dr. Akram with joint pain and a skin issue. He did not have advice for the joint pain other than to see a specialist, which I understood and thought was somewhat reasonable. When I brought up my skin issue, he said I was too young to be on medication for it. I know others my age who are on medication for this issue and I thought his comments were dismissive and misguided. The appointment lasted between 5-10 minutes and I did not feel like my health issues were taken seriously.

What could be improved

Not a good Doctor
Dr. Akram is more interested in billing opportunities and increasing bureaucracy than finding out about my history and reasoning for asking for one of the only FDA approved medications I have been successful with as a temporary measure. He's only going to do a referral to a weight management specialist. Well increase cost and time off work, and ignore my history and my request.

Dr. Akram is awesome! He's knowledgeable and personable. Always answer my questions and make sure I understand what’s going on. Additionally, I like the fact that he makes sure all of the above is met and gets you out of your appointment in a timely fashion. This shows me that he acknowledge that your time is important too.
