Dr. Diana Ackerman MD is listed as being in Seattle, WA but is my Gyn. in Bend, OR, (she replaced my previous Gyn. apx. 2-3 years ago). She is my Gyn. and just did my TVH surgery. She is very professional, personable, respectful, a good listener and in all situations is good at setting the patient at ease. One thing I appreciate; she never has her nurse have me disrobe before she comes in to talk with me even if she knows the apt. will include an exam. It's always more comfortable to talk with your clothes on. lol
As my surgeon; very thorough before, during and after my surgery. She never rushed me, listening to all of my questions and concerns. Surgery must have been very properly done for post-op issues have been next to none. She worked with my pain concerns throughout not wanting the surgery to throw me into a Fibromyalgia pain flair. She didn't even ask to do a vaginal exam at my 2 week post-op apt. (I wasn't having any issues of concern), therefore I didn't have to put up with the few days of bleeding most women seem to have to endure after that exam. As my Mom put it she must trust how good of a job she did in the first place.
I have no complaints, only growing confidence in her abilities.
Was it helpful to you?
