Dr. Ackerman is an asset to Campbell Clinic Orthopaedics. I was well pleased with my carpal tunnel surgery. His bedside manner of compassion and being easy to talk to was an added bonus. I would also like to commend the staff that works with him for their professionalism and friendliness. I would give a rating of more than five stars if I could.
