Patient Reviews
Mar 22, 2018
Dr. Ackerman provided a wonderful first time visit experience that I couldn't be more thankful for. At all times I felt as though I was being listened to by someone who cared not only about assisting me with my immediate issues but was also already thinking ahead on how we could move toward resolutions for the underlying causes and not just the painful symptoms.
