My first visit with Dr Akram was this afternoon Wednesday May 29th., Dr Akram diagnose me with Asthma. He performed a series of exams, ask me several questions. Spent adequate amount of time to evaluate my Health issue. Dr wrote prescription's & has referred me for injections, then return In July for PFT. Only disappointment was Dr Akram 'Bed Side Manner', He was all business!! I am grateful to him for his diagnosis, treatment. Thank You Dr Akram
