4 months agoThe entire experience from the time you check in to when you leave is all positive. Dr. Akkad and Katie Minor, PA-C are fantastic. They really listen to what you have to say and will answer any questions you have. They are truthful and provide guidance that is 100% in your best interest. They are quick and efficient without you feeling rushed. They are prepared and have looked at your history before they walk in to see you and they are genuinely interested in what's going on with you and they like to know what's been going on since the last they saw you. Highly recommend Affiliated Cardiologists of AZ.

4 months agoThis was our first visit to this office for my Father-in-law. He is very apprehensive of seeing doctors. From the moment we walked in starting with receptionist, medical assistants and to the doctors they were very professional and friendly. Dr Akkad was able to make my father-in-law feel at ease and comfortable with him. Dr Akkad also was very professional and you would have thought we had been coming there for years. My father-in-law left and has had continual praise for him and his staff. Thank you everyone. We would highly recommend Affiliated Cardiologist of Arizona.

I completely trust Dr. Akkad and all this is true for his PA Katie as well. I drive almost an hour to see him, and completely worth it.
