My daughter was referred by her pediatrician as she was needing a prescription for eye glasses…read more When we arrived for our morning appointment, I observed a lot of children and adults sitting in the small waiting area. After about 30 minutes of waiting I began asking patients around me, how long they had been waiting. Some had waited over an hour and I realized that the office was scheduling patients within 5-10 minutes of one another. I quickly realized that the patients were being shuffled out fairly quick after waiting for so long to be seen. After an hour and 8 minutes, the assistance called us back to the waiting area. She was very nice and made my 11 year old daughter feel comfortable. She was very thorough and explained what she was going to do. The assistant sent us to waiting in the sitting area for another 15 minutes after she dilated my daughter's eyes. Dr. Akor called us in to her examining room. She was not pleasant at all and quickly asked my daughter what had been going on with her. My daughter told her that she would sometimes get headaches at school because she was struggling to read and see the board in the classroom. Dr. Akor attempted to use only one set of lenses to adjust my daughter's eyesight. My daughter's vision was still blurry. After she used one set, she turned the lights back on said, "something doesn't' seem right". She turned around in her seat with her back to us and began writing in her notes and telling me that she was going to order an MRI if my daughter's brain. She did not explain anything, other than I would be notified by phone to make the appointment. I was shocked and asked her why she felt that my daughter needed an MRI of her brain and all she could say as she was getting up to leave the office was that, "something isn't right... she shouldn't be getting headaches". I explained that my daughter gets headaches only after school as she doesn't not complain on the weekends or in the evenings. Dr. Akor was shaking her head back and forth and said, "The headaches should not be occurring". My daughter began getting visibly upset and crying because she hears something about how something isn't right with her brain. My daughter began to cry and Dr. Akor stood at the door and told us that her office would contact us in two weeks to go over the MRI results and she would conduct another eye exam. Long story short, my daughter never needed an MRI of her brain. After discussing with her pediatrician, he was in agreement that the MRI was not necessary. Dr. Akor spent less than 4 minutes with my daughter and we were being shuffled out like cattle. I was very disappointed as I have always had positive interactions with medical professionals and specialists in Abilene. I'm not sure if she scheduled too many patients that morning and was feeling frustrated, but I will never ever go back!

My mother recommended him to me and couldn't quit raving how wonderful he was, boasting that there are people who drive from other towns just to be treated by him. After I met him I could see why. He actually listens to what you have to say, and makes the interaction with him pleasant and welcoming. After so many doctors being curt, rude or just plain dismissive, this was a revelation to me. He's also thorough, but doesn't put you through a litany of expensive tests you may not need. I've been suffering with back trouble for years and he was the first one to tell me I have bone spurs on the spine - some doctors wouldn't even *talk* to me without my having an MRI first. He works with you to find solutions that best fit your circumstances, and restored my faith in doctors. Possibly my favorite (and most trusted) physician ever.

He is switching to MDVIP which makes total sense knowing his level of expertise and care for his patients, and although not everyone can join with him, the ones that do will be getting even better service from an already outstanding Doctor. He is as close to that "Olde Country Doctor" as you're going to find! Would definitely recommend to all friends and family!
