Patients appreciate
Ashley Akin receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients, with the vast majority of reviews rating her 5 stars. Patients consistently praise her exceptional listening skills and communication abilities, noting that she takes time to thoroughly explain procedures, treatment options, and next steps in ways they can easily understand. Her professional knowledge and clinical expertise, particularly in orthopedic care and knee treatments including injections and post-surgical care, are frequently highlighted. Patients repeatedly describe her as caring, compassionate, and personable, with many commenting on her warm demeanor and ability to make them feel comfortable and valued rather than rushed. Her technical skills are also lauded, with numerous patients specifically mentioning that her injections are nearly painless and that she performs procedures efficiently and skillfully. Many patients express strong loyalty, stating they specifically request her for appointments and would highly recommend her to others.
Patients also share
The reviews reveal very few areas for improvement, with only two notable concerns mentioned. One patient gave a significantly lower rating (2.83 stars) expressing dissatisfaction that Ashley only spent approximately two minutes examining their arm before moving on, suggesting the visit felt too brief. Another patient, while generally positive, indicated they would have preferred more detailed communication about the basis for surgical decisions and discussions with their doctor. One review also mentioned a patient would have preferred a shorter return-to-work timeline post-surgery, though they acknowledged following Ashley's professional advice for a 90-day recovery period.
