I was very happy with this visit and did not have to wait long to be seen. Dr. Ackerman was very patient and his diagnosis/explanation of my finger sprain was very thorough. I would definitely recommend!

Very knowledgeable doctor. Took time to explain the problems. Unfortunately out of network for Cigna, which makes it very difficult to use him. Office looks so-so. Need renovation. Staff is friendly, but did not see any appt booked via zocdoc. Though they saw us anyway.
