Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

One of the best!
Sadly I've been plagues with Afib since 2017. Dr. Akrivakis did a cardiac ablation at that time which lasted 7 years without a hint of returning. Unfortunately it returned this year (2024). He just performed another cardiac ablation which I hope lasts as long as the first. Dr. Akrivakis is an excellent cardiac specialist!

Dr. Akrivakis performed a much needed heart ablation for me a few months ago. Outstanding results and great follow up. His bedside manner is second to none, his professionalism is second to none. He carefully and thoroughly explains every aspect of the procedure he is recommending. My wife and I really liked Dr. Akrivakis and his staff. I felt in Good Hands. All is well now, no more debilitating atrial fibrillation, palpitations or heart not properly pumping blood. Thank you Dr. Akrivakis!
