I found Dr. Akhter through my insurance provider and couldn't be happier. She is a great listener and is very reassuring. She is responsive through MyChart and has helped me find PT. Great provider.

Overall Rating: 5.0 2023-08-02

I had not been to a dr in over 10 yrs due to a bad experience with a Dr who made a rude comment about my weight.   A friend recommended Dr. Akhter and I couldn't be more grateful.  I found Dr. Akhter to be very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.  As a younger Dr., she was much more understanding to the challenges of obesity and that it is not all about calories and exercise.   She was very thorough in going over my medical history and my family history.   She provided me with all the necessary referrals to other providers/specialist for follow up care.  She was quick to follow up with me with my test results via the Yale MyChart app and was responsive to my questions.   I highly recommend her.
