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.

Dr Akbarullah is great! Office staff, clinic manager and referrals dept. are unprofessional, incompetent and out of touch with any meaning of quality of care.

I have always had great results with Dr. Akbarullah. I had a pain in my left lung and he reviewed the X-ray and found a tiny little spot. Turned out to be cancer. He caught it early and I was able to have it removed and have been cancer free for 7 years. He is very caring and explains things well. I also have Copd and he has helped me to be able to breath better.

I've found Dr Akbarullah to be engaging. He greeted me with a handshake and a smile. Reviewed all my records and treated me in a most professional manner in all my visits. I'm being treated for Pulmonary Embolism. Also sleep apena Dr. Akbarullah's other specialty. Staff are very friendly and helpful

The doctor didn't even acknowledge me upon entering the exam room. He looked up my info. on the computer and read from it. He asked one question, "How was my breathing?" He discussed NOTHING further; asked no further questions, gave no advice nor exchanged any information. He offered me a free sample of my medication and updated scripts. I asked him when I return and he told me 6 months. I have not taken the annual breathing tests for 2 years and the subject wasn't even bought up. COLD and uncar

Not only is this doctor unacceptable, (his lack of cleanliness and inattentiveness), his nurse practitioner is probably the most inept I have ever encountered. She recommends tests then does not follow through on the results and then recommends further tests and continually forgets to issue the notes requesting referrals. The office personnel is the most inefficient and ineffective I've encountered. I have canceled all future appointments for my safety and well-being.

Read the two reviews....does not sound like the Dr. Akbarullah I see....He is a very kind, compassionate, caring person....spends time to explain things, goes over test results and always listens to my concerns ...I have recommended him to my friends....and they were very happy with him too...I never feel rushed when I have to see him...

When he's with you feels like he is somewhere else. Doesn't review medical tests just goes by a report.and not real good at that. Doesn't listen to you and won't answer questions. Doesn't care about patients.

My husband had a sleep study done & interpreted by Dr. Akbarullah. We recd the report, we had to circle NUMEROUS ERRORS, his age was incorrect, height, weight, spelling ~ that was just the first page. From the 1st page, INCORRECT data is then mixed with the study results (all done via computer technology) however, bad data put into via humans gives a completely WORTHLESS interpretation with garbage results. Contacted them w/corrections & review by MD requested. NOT done. WORTHLESS report $$
