“Very positive experience with Dr. Acker.”
I told Dr. Acker on my last visit, that he was a very good doctor, and I was very pleased with his patience, and the time he always took to explain anything that he was doing, and especially the procedure I was having done. He always asked me if I had any questions, and took the time to answer them, and any concerns I may have had. He never made me feel rushed, or like he was worried about moving on to the next patient. Definitely would recommend Dr. Acker :)

“Dr. Acker saved my life in June. He found cancer immediately after being misdiagnosed by 4 other doctors.”
Dr. Acker found cancer within minutes. Next day I received scans. He sent me right to a lung specialist’s. Within 3 weeks my cancer tripled in size. If Dr Acker didn’t find it when he did I would have died

“Clean office, nice staff. Chairs askew due to covid. Chairs in front of the desk a bit off putting.”
Doctor was nice. Explained what he was doing and the results of the hearing test.
