I really wanted to like him. My bradley instructor spoke highly of him and it sounded like the type of doctor we wanted to work with. I wasnt sure about him from the start. For one, it seems to be a revolving door over there. He was our pediatrician for whole year but never remembered any of our names. There are appointments scheduled every 15 minutes which left little time to ask questions afterwards sometimes. He always seemed rushed and like his mind was elsewhere. He would ask me a question and then answer it for me. Towards the end, it didnt seem worth it to drive all the way to Mission Viejo. The other thing is the people working the front desk. His wife is VERY unprofessional. I had one instance in which i cancelled the morning before an appointment but it wasnt technically 24 hours, it was 21 hours lol. Although i get the inconvenience to them, i had completely forgotten about it and this was the only time it had ever happened. I called to reschedule the appointment and the front desk almost made it seem like i had to make that appointment and they wouldnt give me another one. Then they passed the phone to Dr Akeys wife to tried to almost scold me LOL. It was just very weird, awkward, and unprofessional. Last straw was when we were told they were questioning whether they wanted us back because there was a bill we had overlooked, which we paid that day it was brought to our attention at the office. A comment was made that Dr Akeys wife might not want us to return. My husband made a joke that if she wasnt taking us back, then there was no reason to pay. His wife later called us and said that she would not allow us to return unless we apologized to her entire staff, which is a bit absurd. Dr Akey is good with kids but the rushing and the drama show his wife is, I would save yourself the trouble.

I couldnt imagine my children ever seeing a doctor who wasnt Dr. Akey. 4 years ago he walked into our hospital room and immediately we had his attention! Yes, you read that correctly, he was listening to us! He was taking in our wishes as parents and since that day he has continued to do so. His staff is incredible and has always made us feel welcome and invited in. Its also a true testament to how much they truly care when his wife is up there answering phones and scheduling visits as well. Dr. Akey is thorough. He takes his time to look over each child. Does that sometimes extend your appointment time? Yes, however I can assure you that the next child up gets the same time and attention. He interacts with our three kids in such a manner thats tailored to their needs. I also love that he is all for natural remedies and good foods. That in and of itself is rare. if you want a doctor who is in this to genuinely care for your child and enjoys what he does, you cannot over look Dr. Akey. If you want a doctor who listens to you, and I mean Ive personally called his office at 6am because my son had a bloody nose and I panicked, Hes your guy. Hes a doctor who is on your side! I cannot say enough about how incredibly fortunate we are. Bless you!

We are very excited to have Dr. Akey back!! After he moved, we got to experience other medical care and it was nothing like what Dr. Akey offers. Dr. Akey takes a personal interest in every patient and family. Hes knowledgeable and up-to-date about current medications and procedures. Dr. Akey cares and about the whole child (social/emotional/values development), not just physical earmarks. Dr. Akey also takes into account each childs history (illness patterns, former antibiotics/medications) when he treats each illness, and he will use this family knowledge to to prepare/prevent/treat the spread of the illness through the family. All three of our children love Dr. Akey (even as he writes "OK" with a smiley face on their hands as a reminder to say "Ok, Mommy") and each has developed his/her own relationship with him. Dr. Akeys new office space is beautiful and peaceful. We used to drive from Newport to Orange and although it is about the same distance now from Newport to Mission Viejo, the drive is much more pleasant, the parking easier and overall it is more convenient. Of course, the drive would never stop us from seeing such a marvelous, unique, generous and loving doctor.

We drive all the way down to Mission Viejo from East Yorba Linda! I visited 4 pediatricians before finding Dr Akey and I will stick with this man for as long as he is in business! He is kind and caring and my daughter enjoys going to see him. (Unless theres a shot involved haha) Thank you Dr. Akey and staff! You are all wonderful!

Dr. Akey has seen all 3 of my kids, the oldest being 28 and the youngest being 16. I cannot provide a strong enough recommendation for Dr. Akey. He is the most wonderful and caring pediatrician. His recommendations are holistic and healthy. He does not push drugs unless called for. All of my kids absolutely love Dr. Akey.

Akey is such a great guy and an even better doctor. He loves your kids and cares so much and even sings to then. I have recommended him to all my friends and I live in Ladera Ranch.
