I can honestly say that Dr. Akauola saved my life. I would recommend to all that wants that personal care treatment.

Great office and staff. Fyi you can use the free wifi from the dentist office next door if you find yourself with low/no cell signal inside.

Normally I love this practice but man oh man did today remind me why I hate providers. Simply because anxiety is listed in my chart, providers think its perfectly fine to dismiss every single symptom of mine as anxiety. Wouldnt surprise me if I got shot one day and a doctor told me to just get a prescription for an antidepressant or anti anxiety medication. Came in for severe sleep deprivation. Saw the PA. Not my normal PCP. From the moment the appt started, I was dismissed for anxiety. I was told I shouldnt be paying that close attention to how long I had been awake for because itll make my anxiety worse. Ive never seen this woman in my life yet somehow she just knows that my chronic sleep deprivation that Ive had since childhood is simply caused by anxiety? Thats odd. Not to mention I told her Im not feeling anxious whatsoever. She asked me if I had a therapist or if I was on antidepressants or anti anxiety medications. The entire appointment was surrounding me being anxious and not surrounding the fact that Ive been awake for 45 hours and sleep aid medications arent helping. She told me to get an appointment with my therapist as soon as possible and then she increased the dosage of a medication that ISNT WORKING. I was not listened to at all. It was just anxiety this or anxiety that. Its not like I was sitting in the exam room rocking back and forth crying or freaking out. I was sitting there very calmly just saying hey Im very sleep deprived and I need help. How does that equate to me being anxious and needing antidepressants and needing to see my therapist stat? That entire experience was extremely unhelpful and harmful. Here I am at 11:42 pm, having only gotten 5 hours of sleep intermittently since 10:30 am today. I have been awake since 12:20pm on 9/12. Maybe your PA needs to learn to not just focus on one symptom and one symptom only. Providers treating patients like this is extremely harmful and people kill themselves over this kind of treatment. Do better.
