Dr. Akhrass did a quadruple bypass on my husband back in 2015 and hubby is still going strong...We also have a friend who had Dr. Akhrass do his surgery...Dr Akhrass and his team were awesome!! So were the nurses and his office staff...I may need surgery in the not too distant future and I don't want anyone to do it except Dr. Akhrass!!
