Apr 21, 2023
My pcp didn’t know why my breathing & sleep were so bad. Dr. Akram figured out the problem & worked out an action plan for me & new meds. He keeps digging until he finds the problem. I knew he could help. Best pulmonary & sleep doc I have had. Sometimes wait times are long, but, take into consideration the types of patients he treats. Your appointment is as long as it needs to be to help you.
