Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2021
I just had two teeth extracted by Dr. Akin, and was very pleased with the results. During the initial visit, his demeanor and professionalism immediately put me at ease with his competence, and he answered any questions that I had. He never appeared rushed, and related to me as a person, not as a patient number or faceless medical problem. I had concerns about anesthesia, and he was very receptive in discussing my issues, and in fact used different medications as a result of that discussion that worked out great. The entire patient interface with his staff was exemplary, from bringing the people to drive us home coffee, to heated blankets! The extraction itself was quick and painless, even without their anesthesia of choice. His office was by the back door so that he actually walked out to the car with me. I had his personal cell phone in my bag going home, and he even called himself to see how I was doing. I would recommend him and his awesome staff to anyone!
