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.

Highly recommend!
Dr. Akhavi is GREAT! I went to see him over 10 years ago after having ongoing migraine headaches. He examined me and asked some questions and discussed options. I have only had 1 migraine in the past 10 years! I've also been seen for some nerve issues, he has helped me so much. Thank you Dr. Akhavi!

Patient no longer suffering with migraines!! – Oct 02, 2024

Very good visit
Dr. Akhavi was on time and was the one to come and get me from the waiting room, which I found refreshing. He was thorough and explained his findings so I could understand what he was saying. He is not overly talkative, but he is friendly and definitely seems to listen to what I have to say and seems to care about his patients.

Dr Akhavi is great. Very knowledgeable, friendly, great bedside manners. Unfortunately, I gave four stars because office staff could use improvement. Need more mature people, like him.

Dr. Akhavi is very knowledgable and caring. He calls his patients himself; however, his office staff needs improving.

I have been Dr Akhavi’s patient since 1982. I believe he is the best in his field. My PCP shared with me that his own father had been a patient of Dr Akhavi’s so that says a lot. He’s very knowledgeable as well as a kind man. I highly recommend him.

I cancelled my appointment with Dr. Akhavi. While making that appointment, the person on the phone, Kelsey, was rude and unprofessional. She would not let me speak, I could not explain what I needed to say. I got so frustrated that went ahead and called my insurance co and looked for another Dr. Kelsey has NO people skills.
