Dr Acker is beyond excellent. He performed my rotator cuff surgery and I'm doing better than expected, with only a couple small non invasive scars and minimal pain. He's informed me, ahead of time, how everything would come together and he's been true to his word. He explained the entire process in a way that I could understand. I feel great about the surgery and my progress. Dr Acker is a good man and you can tell that from the moment you meet him.
