Patient Reviews
Aug 20, 2017
Dr. Akbar was the Dr. that saw our son in 1997 when he was found to have cancer. Dr Akbar did everything he could to find best treatment for him calling all over the country to get the latest protocol for him. He pushed our son on a gurney through the hospital getting different test with me in tow. He really cares about his patients and their family. I would highly recommend him. He even had the medical book and explained the treatment to me.
