Dr. Ackerman was extremely rude and dismissive...so much so that I came home crying. I have never had such a bad experience. You'd think that someone who chooses a profession that involves caring for the physical well-being of a person would be just as concerned about their psychological well-being. What a bad choice of profession!

He was hands down the worst physician that I had ever interacted with. I saw him at the student health center at UCLA, where I typically interact with wonderful, committed health professionals, and he spent the first five minutes of the consultation chewing me out because I had to rescheduled my appointment. It completely unnerved me to be chewed out by a physician when I was already seeing him about what could have been a life-threatening condition. It was just horrible. He should be fired. He was cold and stand-offish. Moreover, he did not seem to know where to refer me and so not only was he discourteous, unprofessional, and inappropriate, he did not make up for it by is ability to diagnose or deliver service. Just horrible.
