Review for Dr. Cuomo Scholer
Worked hard to find out my problem and surgically corrected it with minimal pain and short recovery.

Review for Dr. Leinbach II
He took his time during my visit and explained that I needed a pacemaker. I felt confident that Dr. Akbary could do my pacemaker placement with 30 yrs experience. He spent time with me after the surgery and I appreciated that.
