I recently had a new patient appointment with Dr. Akhibi. He was immensely understanding, attentive, and comprehensively reviewed my current circumstances enabling him to effectively adjust my treatment plan. Dr. Akhibi provided me with valuable and insightful support and feedback to manage some of my significant stressors. His demeanor was professional, courteous and personable.
Dr. Akhibi’s office staff were exceptionally helpful. They provided me with information and necessary requests well in advance of my appointment.

Dr. Akhibi is the kind of medical practitioner all should strive to emulate. He has patience, great explanations, and is very empathetic. His approach is holistic.
Less than 1 year agoJS
Dr. Akhibi is the kind of medical practitioner all should strive to emulate. He has patience, provides great explanations, and is very empathetic. His approach is holistic. He seeks to understand all aspects of whatever might impact his therapies. His therapies, as best as I can tell, are multi-modal by design. All the degrees he has definitely supports this.
When the only potential negative is that Dr. Akhibi has an accent, you know he is worth his weight in gold. (Note: I wanted to give him five stars for all, but "Right Away!" is not a realistic option, though my wait time has never exceeded ten minutes.)
Dr. Akhibi's assistants are also worth mentioning, as they are polite, professional, thorough, and prompt. I would expect nothing less of Dr. Akhibi's personnel selection to represent his practice.

Great doctor would highly recommend. I was in a really horrible situation and he helped me. I’ve had a lot of bad experiences in the past with doctors who weren’t great, but he’s awesome. The video appointment was professional and easy. I really appreciated the convenience also especially given my circumstance at the time.
