Dr Ackland performed surgery on my right shoulder.. His staff is very helpful in getting you through the process, appointments are easily made - phone calls are returned in a reasonable amt. of time . follow ups after the surgery were within 2 days...... i'd recommend Dr. Ackland .... he's extremely knowledgeable, professional and an excellent surgeon [ I drove 250 miles for his services with no regrets]

Dr. Ackland is an outstanding surgeon!! He performed surgery on my left labrum and bicep. It has been a little over 5 months now. I feel great and range of motion is almost 100%. I'm getting stronger every day. I believe I'm going to recover 100%. Thanks Dr. Ackland great job!

Extremely happy with this surgeon I had the left shoulder repaired by him and when it came time to do the right shoulder I knew right where to go. He got me back to 100% and back to work at a very physical job.
