Dr Acker is very thorough with everything you have concerns about. She makes my sons feel comfortable and at ease. She listens and she doesnt give off ANY judgement. She is also extremely quick when sending questions on the portal and gives the best medical advice for the issue. I dont ever want my boys to have another peds doctor
