Today's Guest
Dr. Akavan is a native of Los Angeles, has traveled to Granada in New York and Texas to complete his medical training. He completed a chief residency year in internal medicine at the University of Texas at Houston, and was a chief fellow at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where he currently practices as a pulmonary and critical care physician. Dr. Akavan spends half of his time in the ICU and the other half doing palm consults and doing some clinic. Dr. Akavan has a special interest in sarcoidosis and is the medical director of the Pulmonary Sarcoidosis Program. Since joining Cedars-Sinai, he has helped build a strong, structured, multi-disciplinary sarcoidosis program. And I wanna say one more thing before I introduce him is that his comments are his own. And do not represent Cedars-Sinai.
