>Cardiology
I strongly believe that medicine is more than technology, because people are more than machines! My goal is to care for the whole person, and I aim to foster a relationship with patients based on trust and mutual respect.
I have practiced medicine for over 20 years in diverse clinical settings and have held positions with large medical groups in the Bay Area. I have also contributed to research in therapeutic device development in the field of hypertension. I publish regularly in peer-reviewed journals and I serve as assistant clinical professor of medicine at UCSF. I wrote a book that critically examines the theory and practice of “population medicine.”
I am board-certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in the areas of cardiology and interventional cardiology. I also hold a certification in bioethics with distinction from the National Catholic Bioethics Center.

3 months agoI am a physician, myself, and Dr. Accad is the only physician I will refer patients to in the entire bay area. He is a direct primary care doctor, who takes his time with patients and does the right thing for them, because he works for them not for the system. if you don’t want to be treated like cattle, make an appointment to see him and get the right care for you.

3 years agoMy experience with Dr. Accad was very pleasant. He answered all of my questions and was very polite. I have Kaiser insurance and my primary care Dr would only recommend pills for every problem I had. When it came to my high cholesterol he wanted me to go on statins which I have heard have many bad side effects. I asked to have a coronary calcium scan which is a inexpensive test to have to see if you have plaque developing in your arteries, this can help you to decide wether you need to go on medication. My doctor refused to refer me to get the test, so I went To Dr Accad and had the test done. Then he went over the results and clearly explained my different options for treatment. I'm recommending my mom go to him also
