    Dr Akan is an excellent doctor. I appreciate her professionalism and ""bedside manner"". She put me at ease as soon as I met her. She explained everything I needed to know in detail, answering any questions I had completely. She was late to the Telemed appt but she apologized as she took longer with the previous patient. She has been on time in previous appts.
