Dr Ricardo Akstein is a knowledgeable, patient, qualified physician. He takes his time to explain procedures. He doesn't rush each patient just to fill a quota, but each patient is treated with care and respect. He is humble, yet well experienced. His staff was pleasant from the front desk to the technicians.Yes, there is a bit of a wait, but its because he is the only physician in the office, and he does not hurry his patients. An excellent bedside manner. Other eye clinics rush in and out to see you.You have to practically hold them down to get answers. I prefer a well experienced physician who can handle unexpected emergencies calmly rather than a novice who only knows textbook scenarios. I recommend him.

Not sure why this establishment has such a low score but I can tell you, Dr. Akstein is “A1”. I’ve been going to his office for years now. He is extremely thorough and knows his stuff. I recently had cataract surgery and I was very impressed with the pre and post op service, as well as the surgery itself. The space is nice and clean, and the staff are very friendly and helpful too. I would absolutely recommend Akstein eye center for your ophthalmology needs.

I lost vision in my right eye and after spending the night in the emergency room. Dr Akstein’s office told me to come in immediately! It was their surgery day and they were not seeing patients but their act of kindness and professionalism will forever be etched in my heart. A wonderful doctor and equally wonderful and professional staff! Thank you 🙏

So today I called my insurance company looking for an eye doctor and was referred with a lot of options so o clock on Dr. Akstein so before I call I like to review the reviews and decide for myself now some was good and some wasn’t so i followed my mine and said let me give them a call and I did so in the process of making a appointment the representive was nice and respectful of making my appointment but what really stood out she ask me was I experiencing any pain etc and which I was so she said can you make it in today around 3:15 and I said sure I got there around 3:05 and was called in around 4:15 which wasn’t bad and i couldn’t complain so I seen Dr. Akstein and he was so nice respectful he was very concern about my vision and told me something that my other doctor didn’t tell me about skipping my meds also double check my eyes and I was scheduled for surgery within two weeks I’m very glad I didn’t judge a book off someone else opinion so I’m locked in o say this to say you have to see for yourself also the two ladies at the front desk was respectful and very polite and interact with me we as people have to learn to be patient because doctors see a lot of peoples and everybody have different reasons of seeing them rushing gets you no where so from my point of view I say check them out

Dr. Akstein is The Greatest Ophthalmologist in the Metro Atlanta area!!! He truly cares for his numerous diverse patients. I had cataract surgery a week ago and I Thank God for Dr.Akstein. He’s a master in his profession and I am grateful to know him and his diligence to help everyone. He shared with me that a lot of doctors will not accept the patients he services. He said he doesn’t do it for the money, but he’s abundantly blessed. I pray God impresses upon the heart of another like minded ophthalmologist to help him, because he has so many patients. I Love and Appreciate Him tremendously for giving me clear vision once again! Thank You Dr. Ricardo Akstein from the bottom of my heart, Alesia Hines
