Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great doctor!
I have been going to Dr.Ackerman for 10 years and it is always a pleasant visit, he listens well and gives feedback/advice and follows up with me, even calls me himself. I'm due to have my first baby next year and wish he delivered babies still!

Fabulous office staff, environment, and Doctor! By far the most laid back energy I have met in a professional environment. Easy to talk to and forth coming with answers. I use to send referrals to his office 15 years ago. Sorry, I waited so long to come to his office.

Dr. Ronald Ackerman is the best obgyn ever! He is personable/patient, an expert in the field, advocates for his patients, and makes the very best decisions with you for your care! You could NOT ask for a better physician. If there is a referral needed Dr. Ackerman will send you to the BEST- only other amazing and highly accomplished physicians! The office is beautiful, the new front staff is kind and amazing, and there are no long wait times as the doctor sticks to the schedule yet reserves ample time for each patient! I highly recommend Dr. Ackerman and have absolutely no reservations. He is TOP NOTCH!
