I am very impressed (and thankful) for the amount of time Dr. Akhtar spends with me at each visit. She takes time to explain clearly, the meaning of lab tests and scans. She addresses any current issues and always reviews my medications and asks about any new issues I may have. Last but not least--- and you would think this would be something every doctor does....but they do not--- Dr. Akhtar always listens to my heart and lungs and reviews other data collected to determine health and wellbeing. She is kind and a good listen... read more

I have been a patient of Dr Akhtar's for many years as I spend time in Okeechobee visiting family several times a year. From the first visit with Dr Akhtar, I knew she was a very kind and knowable physician. I have never had a physician at home in Atlanta that has shown me the kind of care and compassion that Dr Akhtar has given me. She takes her time and makes sure I understand every aspect of my care. If I have any questions, she is patient and goes over my care plan until she is sure I understand it completely. I have nev... read more

The incompetent front desk is the worst I have ever experienced making it difficult to get an appointment.

Dr Akhtar has been my family physician for 8 years. I appreciate that she takes time to address all my concerns and is through with making certain all my RX are working for me and are compatible with other RX, and that shots and tests are up to date. The staff is amazingly accommodating and friendly. I’m so glad that she’s my doctor!

I would not ever take anyone there she dont care about her patients at all my dad is in so much pain an she wont send him back to the doc that did his surgery an she wont do it an the surgery said she waited 2 yr to send him an the clots they took out cause nerve damage in his foot due the this doc neglected respond on the matter. Malpractice is all I can say. This man is so miserable an she wont alow him to do what surgeon said to come back.

She is a wonderful physician and been seeing her for many years, also my husband and mother in law go to her. She has helped me and my family through many medical conditions and plan to let Dr. Akhtar continue with our care. Want to give a thumbs up to her staff too, they are amazing and never hesitate to help me and my family.

She is a very caring and compassionate and really took her time with her. She took the time to make sure all questions were answered and understood. We think she is wonderful and would recommen... read more

She is a world class physician with incredible bed side manner. She brings a lifetime of experience and expertise while having the touch of southern hospitality that a town like Okeechobee deserves. Even though the wait times could get a little long, I highly recommend Dr. Akhtar to anyone seeking a great loving doctor who cares about you as a person!
