Thomas Ackerson does not have an adequate amount of comments to generate the sentiment analysis.
Dr. Ackerson is a very skilled surgeon. He has done hip replacements on both my hips, and I feel wonderful. He also fixed me up when I fell and broke my leg. I hope he never retires!!!
very Professional, very helpful. Best of all you don't have to wait for a long time
I had a very positive experience with Dr. Ackerson. He is an honest ,direct and compassionate physician. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking orthopedic needs. His background is flawless as is his reputation in the medical community. I want to thank him for all he has done and for improving my health and life.
Dr. Ackerson is a very skilled and talented surgeon and was very kind and reassuring. He is also fun and funny and took great care of me.
Dr. Ackerson is a charming, straight forward, no nonsense doctor with a great sense of humor. He gets you in does what needs to be done and gets you out in a timely manner with the help of his assistant/nurse Carla. Glad I was referred to him!
Im so pleased with Dr Ackerson and his amazing assistant David. Doctor Ackerson has such a young heart he made me forget about my severe back pain for a brief moment when he walked into the room, he's very knowledgeable, experienced and funny. David is always so attentive with all my paperwork, and the needs that come about, everything he does with my case becomes a priority, and even though their very busy they always have time to smile. I love themJennifer Avila
I first saw Dr. Ackerson in 1987 when I fell and broke a bone in my left foot. I went back to see him about 8 months later because I was having severe pain in my low back. He said he didn't think the issue was the low back, but rather my left hip. He had my low back and hips x-rayed in his office and came back to tell me that it was definitely my left hip. He was very concerned, particularly since I was only 39 at the time...He replaced my left hip and did a revision on it in 1995 and I still have that same hip and it is doing great...I love his sense of humor and his capabilities as a doctor. He is expert in the field of orthopedics. I no longer see him as my doctor because I now live over 3 hours north of Pasadena, otherwise I would still be his patient. I noticed some people commented that they didn't care for his sense of humor or "bedside" manner...You don't go to a doctor to be your best buddy. You go to one because they are competent in their field and Tom Ackerson is extremely competent.
I am a lifeguard who works where Dr. Ackerson swims every day. This man has nothing but a big heart. Everyone knows of his kindness, he gives attention to everyone from the custodians inside the locker room to which he gives his most expensive tennis shoes, to our 95 year old Holocaust surviver that he meets every time he visits the pool and greats her with a sweet and honest concern about her neck pain and her busy life. I told him my daughter was in gymnastics and received a leg injury. Immediately he had an appointment set up for her. Granted, it took my daughter a couple visits to his office for progress to show, however he did not stop until she was back to perfection once again!We love Dr. Ackerson!
Dr Ackerson definetly earned the 5 STARS today. My fiancé Walter twisted his ankle playing soccer on Saturday and thought he had only sprained it. We both decided it looked worse than a sprain and went to urgent care where we were given the bad news that it was broken. We were sent to Huntington Orthopedic where we saw Dr. Ackerson and I can tell you that the entire time I was completely stressed out about the situation not knowing how bad the break was and dreading the word "surgery" which didn't take very long to be told that he would need surgery. What I can say is that my experience from beginning to end from the staff to the nurses than the Doctor where extremely professional, helpful, and friendly. Dr Ackerson made the entire experience feel less overwhelming from his humor and attentiveness constantly cracking jokes making light of a terrible situation and offering us cookies to take our minds off of what we will soon be facing. He explained the entire process from beginning to end on what to expect with the surgery before, during and after. We would definitely recommend Dr. Ackerson. Stay tuned for updates once the surgery is completed.
I have been a patient of Dr. Ackerson's for many years starting with a broken ankle that required surgery;. I have found him to be attentive to all my multiple orthopedic injuries There have been times when I have waited for him, but someone in a busy practice that is understandable. if I feel I need more time to discuss issues he has always made time for me. I will continue to see him and recommend him to others.
