Being someone who can impact people’s life in a positive way is what I wake up every morning for. Being someone who walks with them every step of the way using their strength and my guidance in achieving their health goals and helping them through health crisis. Although it may not be always happy moments, but the trust and confident I have gained is what drives me and provides a boost to me at the time of hardship. As the nature of this work is although exhausting but most rewarding. This relationship has evolved to a point that now I draw my energy from their happy faces and trust. A wonderful balance that empowers me to hold their hands at the time of their need. I think I will never be retired from this job.
"Dr. Akhavon is by far my favorite Doctor I have ever had. Her staff is the best. They treat you as a friend and really do show they care for their patients. I am going to be moving soon and will miss her and her staff greatly. They are wonderful people."
"Dr. Akhavon and her staff have always treated me with courtesy. Their caring and proficient manner brings me comfort when I'm not well. I would highly recommend Riba and her staff to anyone who wants the quiet and respectful primary care physician."
