Office staff is very inexperienced. My first appointment they messed up and didn’t get my meds verified so I could have refills. I had to call back twice. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, and Diabetes. I ask for a continuous glucose monitor and Mounjaro and she wouldn’t put in for either one. Wanted to refer me to the endocrinologist. I ask for a wheelchair. Wouldn’t give me that. I can’t walk around for long without one. In my experience she doesn’t like prescribing new stuff, she refers you out. I thought she was nice enough and listened to my concerns but she just didn’t help me. Also said I was a no show and tried charging me when my husband cancelled the appt but the staff didn’t document that. Because of that she wouldn’t give me my meds I needed refilled. The young woman on the phone also broke Hippa by asking me if my son was …….. and said his name. I said yes and she proceeded to tell me about his visits and that he was just referred out. She had no idea at the time if she should have been discussing that with me or not! I finally had to change Drs. New Dr said I didn’t need to see endocrinologist and prescribed me what I needed. I am very happy I switched and wish I would have done it sooner.

For over a year now, my dentist has been telling me that the pain that I was having on the right side of my face was fibromyalgia or ghost pain and there was nothing that could be done about it. Today I needed an emergency appointment to see Dr. Akatue due to back pain and fortunately for me, she was able to see me this afternoon. While telling her about my back pain, she also ask was I having any other issues and I let her know about the reoccurring pain on the right side of my face and she immediately told me that it was Trigeminal neuralgia. I just googled this diagnosis and this is exactly what is happening with my face and she treated me accordingly. Dr. Akatue, you are truly an amazing physician who truly cares about her patients and I truly appreciate you for taking care of me. Thank you, Carolyn

Dr. Akatue deserves every 5 star rating you see. She is very attentive during the time she is evaluating patients. And it truly shows that she cares about her patients with the level of questioning she goes through. She is very thorough, caring, and overall just exceptionally wonderful to be around. I'm very grateful to have found such a great Dr!

I want to first thank God for Mr. Doctor Akatue, who gave me the business card of his beloved wife, Mrs. Dr. Akatue. The two were both sent to me by God. Mrs. Dr. Akatue, took me on as a new patient, and for the first time in my life, I was treated so delicately. She was very thorough, patient, hands on & more in tune with me than any other doctor I have ever encountered. I was blown away because of the levels of questions towards my health, my mental health and my complete holistic being. Her work succeeded above and beyond any experience I have ever had as a patient. Why? It's because she truly cares about her patients & she listens. Today, I felt a genuine spirit in her heart as a doctor. As I sat, Dr. Akatue, stood, and she intently gave 100% of her attention. Seeking to do no harm, my tears were therapeutic, and she truly held & heard me. As a new patient, I 100% recommend Dr. Akatue to be your provider. She is a well-informed compassionate medical provider, who delivered healing to my soul before any report because of her divine covering which goes beyond her title as a doctor. Amen

I’ve only gone to Dr Akatue twice but she is still the best doctor I’ve had. She’s very thorough and easy to talk to. I no longer live in Nashville but really wish she was still my doctor.

With Covid season,I noticed that many doctors stop being concerned about their patients at all and really started to only look out for themseves.It was very disappointing to see this even in some of my own doctors.So it was refreshing to see that a few doctors are still just as caring during Covid as before.My son,who is 20 has Aspergers sees Dr.Akatue.This was his first time seeing an adult doctor,so I was really nervous,but to my surprise he took well to her.She put him at ease and was able to communicate effectively with him(as he only speaks to certain people).She seems to really have a heart for not just making sure the patient's physical health is good,but they are good on every level.I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a kind,compassionate and knowledgeable doctor.

Everything from registration as a new patient to the triaging to my encounter with Dr Akatue was excellent. It was the best experience I’ve had with a primary doctor and I’m looking forward to my next visit. I know it will be worry free.
