My daughter was having strange pain behind her eyebrow that pediatricians misdiagnosed 3 times. Fina... lly, we went to Dr Akkeson and she did her exam then had us get an MRI. When we finally got the MRI it ended up saving my daughter’s life! A few months later during a routine exam she caught something abnormal with my son’s eyes which also needed an MRI for more information. We were able to resolve that as well. I was sad to see the tried and true two retire but we’re all in good hands with Dr. Akkeson!!
