    Dr B. Acker was not only patient, confident and very easy to feel comfortable with, he was clear about my options and very good with explaining diagnosis and procedures. He left no stone unturned so much I left there feeling safe and in good hands. The worry that preceded my visit quickly vanished after our interaction.
