Patient Reviews
Sep 27, 2023
Dr Akhavan is very attentive and caring. He performed bilateral ureteral reimplantation on our daughter when she was 16 months old. She had some complications but Dr Akhavan helped us get through it. He cured her reflux and still monitors her periodically. He showed up to check on us whenever we were in the hospital and always called/messaged us back quickly.. these are things that really stand out to stressed out parents when dealing with scary situations. Thank you to Dr Akhavan and everyone else on his team.
