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.

He was my doctor at Lakeside. He was a complete jerk and shouldn’t be working with people that have substance use disorders. He acts like you are wasting his time. I changed to Dr. Fu and he is awesome.

I really like Dr. Akin. He has done wonders with my husband who suffers with Dementia. The issues I have isn't with him or his care but with the clinic and staff. Your phone calls aren't answered so it's hard to get scheduled for appointments or make changes. The staff is unfamiliar with how the clinic is ran, example: we were sent to 3 different rooms before we were finally in Dr. Akin's office. They didn't have medical records. A good office manager is seriously needed at this clinic.

THIS DOCTOR WOULD DO BETTER WITH MEN AS HE THINKS FEMALE PATIENCE SHOULD NOT THINK FOR THEM SELF. IF YOU ARE A WOMAN WHO LIKE TO HAVE A MAN MAKE YOUR DECISION FOR YOU. YOU WILL DO WELL WITH HIM.

Did not ever get me on any medications that worked. Went to another doctor and got on medications that worked in just a few weeks. Never really trusted his ability to listen. He just seemed to focus on getting me in and out of the office. Wait time was ridiculous. Sometimes two to three hours. Trust me if you can another doctor or clinic, do so!!! Particularly clinic!!! This one is run by some of the most rude, incompetent staff I have ever run in to.
