My brother and I both began seeing Dr Acher in 2003 (him) and 2005 ( myself). I had my 1st surgery in 2009 for the top part (descending) of the Thoracoabdominal aneurysm, and will be having the 2nd part this year (visceral). Dr. Acher is kind and communicative when working with his patients and nurses. My wife nor I have heard a bad word said of him in all these years!

Dr. Acher did an abdominal aneurysm repair on my husband Bob in 1999. He was specifically recommended by our local surgeon because the surgery was so involved. Dr. Acher did the successful repair and did amazing follow up work during our office visits. He is truly committed to making his patients feel confident.

Dr Acher is our family's hero. He saved my mother's life ... twice. The first time was in 2002 when she had an aortic aneurysm rupture. He conducted emergency surgery and few patients survive this. Mom came out with flying colors. He is extremely bright, precise and caring. The second time he conducted surgery to prevent another aortic tear, after watching a second aneurysm grow for eight years to the point of danger. 11-hour, extraordinarily complex surgery, successful, and again mom is thriving. To our family, Dr. Acher is a miracle worker. We adore him, and his wife Dr. Tann.
