"PA Meagan and Dr. Akerman helped me get to the bottom of my chronic constipation issue- they provided samples while I figured out which medication worked best for me (Trulance)."
"I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Akerman’s office- from scheduling/giving me instructions, check in…and then, the nurse who put in my IV, the anesthesiologist and Dr. Akerman, and the nurse who dismissed me. It was my first procedure and I was nervous but, they quickly made me feel at ease and telling me what to expect. I was extremely happy with the entire event and would highly recommend them."

"My experience with Dr. Akerman was outstanding. Firstly, I was called in EARLY, something that virtually never happens. Also, Dr. Akerman has a wonderful bedside manner which was greatly appreciated given how nervous I was. He explained what was being done and the possible outcomes. I wish all doctor visits were like this."
"Colonoscopy for cancer screening went super smooth and was as pleasant as I imagine it can be. Took advantage of the "open access colonoscopy" option, was able to schedule and communicate with the office through email and portal with ease. Office staff was great and went above what was required for my prep stuff. Everything you need to know is offered on his website videos and blog posts. Day of event was ahead of schedule and knocked it out in no time, all aftercare and results delivery was great."
"Dr. Akerman and his staff are amazing! They are communicative and quickly respond to all questions. I would recommend Dr. Akerman to anyone looking for a Gastroenterologist!"
"Dr. Akerman is a very sincere doctor. He was able to work me in his very busy schedule to check out my pancreas. I love that you can joke around with him as well. Most doctors can’t joke around."

His staff is organized and any time I have sent a message I get a response within 24 hours. I’ve never had that experience with any other Dr office. If you’re going to have a lifelong disease, you need a Dr who cares about you. Thanks Dr A for making me better."

"Dr. Akerman and his team are just incredible. I was referred to his office by my Oncologist. From the second I walked in the office, I felt comfortable and welcomed. Dr. Akerman is hands down the best GI doctor I have seen thus far in life. He help soothe all of my worries and fears. He's been helpful in this journey of mine to find something that will help my chronic IBS-C. The portal system they offer is also such a blessing. No more playing phone tag! His team are very responsive to the "message" feature and have been able to answer all of my questions through that. I never thought I'd have a GI doctor in my 40's, but I have found the best one. Thank you!"
"I chose Dr. Akerman based on the reviews and ratings that were on Google. Below is my honest feedback on my experience... Prior to the procedures, I had to go to an in-patient consult at his office. The woman at the front desk was very friendly and very helpful. Before he saw me, I sat with his PA (Letty) who was very friendly and very knowledgeable about my circumstances. She made me feel very comfortable to speak with her about something so personal to me. Finally, Dr. Akerman came in. He impressed me from the very beginning because he immediately started talking to me about my previous colonoscopies. He was very much up to speed on past issues and was able to speak to any questions or concerns that I had. Not to get too personal (or gross you out with details), but he was able to give me some really great feedback about a few other questions that I had. Dr. Akerman was extremely friendly, extremely attentive, extremely knowledgeable… and I walked away feeling good about him, his office and the procedure. The day before the procedure, I had to prepare by drinking the wonderful “cocktail” he prescribed. I bring this up because his office provided me with instructions that were slightly different from the prescription. His instructions were easy to follow and made a lot of sense. This is just another small detail that impressed me about his interest in his patients and ensuring the success of the procedure. FAST FORWARD to the day of the procedure… the location was extremely easy to find because it is across the street from his office. Still on Parker and Preston, it is in the same strip mall with Walmart and the EoS Fitness Gym. I went into this place expecting to be in a typical doctor’s office that is in a strip mall. I couldn’t be more wrong. Aside from the waiting room (which they checked me in with ZERO issues), the back area looks exactly like a hospital! I was blown away! The staff was moving & shaking… everyone was busy, friendly and things were getting done. Everyone I interacted with were very friendly, very professional, and took the time to walk me through paperwork, explaining the procedure, and made sure I was comfortable. I was rolled into the exam room and the next thing I knew, I was waking up. Even though I was a little “out of it” after the procedure, I do recall talking with him about the procedure. Dr. Akerman has incredible bedside manner, making sure that I was comfortable, and answering any follow-up questions that my wife and I had. In the days after the procedure, I had some challenges with CVS Pharmacy. It literally lasted almost a week to get my prescription together, but it was an absolute pleasure to deal with Letty AND Dr. Akerman during the process. They remained professional and did all that they could to work with the pharmacy- despite how difficult the pharmacy was making things. What I like about his office is his online “portal”. In 2024, I am sure everyone has a portal but his was the easiest and direct way to reach his office and speak with someone. Letty and Dr. Akerman were very quick and very efficient about responding to my emails. IN CONCLUSION, I wanted to really comb through my entire experience so you know what to expect. Ultimately, I give Dr. Akerman high ratings. I have nothing but great things to say about him, his staff, and my overall experience. It was seamless on their end. I can’t complain about anything. Even if I wanted to be “nit-picky” about something, I can’t. This was truly a great experience. I definitely feel comfortable continuing to see him for my gastrointestinal matters. This is big because I take my health seriously and if the “trust” factor isn’t there, that’s a problem. With him, I trust him and plan to stick with him. Without going into a lot of past experiences with other doctors, I’ll just emphasize how huge it is to me that I have such high regards for him as my doctor. I would highly recommend that you see him too."
"Dr Ackerman & his staff were wonderful! Although I had a little problem getting my procedure scheduled, everything else went smoothly. That day of my procedure was great from beginning to end. The staff were all friendly, caring & made the experience easy. Dr Ackerman even diagnosed me even beforehand. He's professional, extremely knowledgeable, caring, easy to speak with and very personable. I wish all my doctors were like him."
"Dr. Akerman is amazing! He listened to what was happening and my medical history and had a plan to move forward right away. He was kind and is just a nice guy!"
"Dr. Akerman is professional, fun and friendly and I’m really happy with my entire experience and so thankful to him because at the end of the day he’s a lifesaver. Thank you Dr. Akerman."
"Dr. Stuart Akerman and the fine folks at Digestive Health Center of Plano are the best. The people are great, the facility is spotless and my procedure went off without a problem. I appreciate every bit of time and effort that went towards me. Highly recommend the doc and DHC."
"Dr Akerman and Dr Eidem are fantastic over at DHAT. From the first scheduling appointment call (Letty is amazing) to being walked out to the car post-procedure, the entire staff is first class all the way."
"Dr. Akerman and his staff are just amazing. They care about their patients and more importantly they listen to you. He will develop a treatment plan based off your medical history, discuss it with you and if you have concerns about it he takes the time to address those concern's. A lot of medical professionals will dismiss your concerns or change treatment plans without discussing with a patient. Dr. Akerman doesn’t operate that away. He has a rare trait of compassion and empathy."
"Dr. Ackerman and his staff were so accommodating and helpful during my procedure. I highly encourage everyone that needs to get there checkups done go and see them."
"OMG !! what a Doctor .. all the way the Best of all. caring and very Humble. explain all in details and takes care of me so much. i am so grateful i have him as a my GI doctor !"
"I had a very good experience. Everyone in the office was very nice and explained the whole procedure and let me know what to expect. When I went for my procedure the staff was very nice also.

I would definitely refer family and friends to Dr. Akerman and his office."

"Fabulous doctor and pleasant visit experience. From scheduling, completing paperwork, checking in, consultation and check out, the experience was simple and convenient.

I highly recommend this office and specifically Dr Akerman!"

"Facility is very efficient and Dr. Akerman is so professional, explains everything thoroughly, and is easy to talk to. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a gastroenterologist."
"I have seen Dr Akerman for an office visit/consultation, Endoscopic Ultrasound and a colonoscopy. He explains things well, doesn't rush the patient and is empathetic, kind and very knowledgeable. His staff is also very professional. Personally of all the doctors I have been to in my life he is exceptional as is his staff. I highly recommend and wish all doctors had the knowledge, experience and kind demeanor with patients."
"Dr. Ackerman and his staff were very professional during the information exchange leading up to the appointment, the introductory meeting, the day of the procedure, as well as follow-up. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services! Greg C."
"Everything was easy and professional. Phone calls were returned promptly. And the colonoscopy and endoscopy both were smooth. Clear prep and after care directions"
"Dr Ackerman and staff do an excellent job of communicating and follow through. His NP Heather was prompt, caring, and thorough. At the Endoscopy Center, prep RN Becky got the IV going on the first try with no bruising. The anesthetist gave just the right amount of meds; woke up quickly and alert. Dr Ackerman explained the findings with a concrete plan for next steps to wellness. Highly recommend this competent team."
"Dr Akerman is professional, kind and very considerate of his patients. He takes his time to explain things in a way that you would understand and goes out of his way to ensure his patients are well taken care with of. He has performed procedures on me and everything went very smoothly. Would highly recommend him."
"I barely waited in the office for my first appointment and was promptly visited by both the nurses and Dr. Akerman. Each spent quality time with me to help get all of the info, and I felt extremely cared for by Dr. A during his consult. Within 2 weeks I was in my procedure, with answers available the same day. If you want fast, professional, sincere healthcare--- Dr. Akerman and his team at DHAT are the way to go."
"I have been seeing Dr. Akerman for the last few years. Primarily for acid reflux and issues with previous surgeries to stop it. He has also treated any other digestive issues I have had. He has been very helpful and listens to his patients. I recommend him highly."

"Dr Akerman and staff were amazing throughout my endoscopy procedure. Everyone was very nice and personable! Overall great experience I’m going to keep this at 5 stars because I like the Dr and his scheduler has been such a great help to me. BUT his clinical nurse, Holly will never answer the phone, check the voicemails or return your calls. You have a better chance of getting in your car and driving to the office to get someone to help You."
"He takes the time to listen to you and answers ALL your questions in ways that you can easily understand. You never feel rushed. He is extremely knowledgeable, but also very caring and kind. Can’t say enough good things about him and his staff!! I highly recommend him!"
"We are working toward a solution. I communicate via the Patient Portal, and I quickly get a response to my messages. I am thrilled with the care I have received to date."
"Dr. Akerman is a great doctor - professional, caring, genuine and sincere. I feel in great hands under his care, as he’s helped me significantly to improve my GI health."
"I was referred to Dr. Akerman for a procedure recently. We saw him before and after the procedure, where he explained what would transpire during the procedure, and conveyed what was discovered afterwards. He was gracious in taking the time to answer all of our questions. The real surprise was I received a phone call about a week after the procedure to see how I was doing. The call was not from the NP, or the assistant, but the Dr. Akerman himself. How rare is this these days that a Dr. would take time to show a little compassion to his patient and do this."
"Dr. Akerman is a great doctor - professional, caring, genuine and sincere. I feel in great hands under his care, as he’s helped me significantly to improve my GI health."

"I would highly recommend Dr. Akerman, and staff, who have not only cared for my husband and myself, but also, my daughter, most recently. He has been exceptionally helpful in our entire family's health and concerns, and we would highly recommend that anyone who is seeking professional, thorough, and thoughtful care, to contact Dr. Akerman. We are so appreciative of Dr.Akerman's personal attention, and we feel more at ease as a result of this extraordinary physician, who is genuinely warm and wonderful!

The nurse prepped me and was very comforting and friendly , as I was a little anxious. The procedure was on time. After the procedure the Dr returned and explained how it went. Everyone had a great bedside manner."
"The outpatient facility was amazing. Not only from Dr Akerman but his nurses, etc. I would refer him to friends and family. I only suggest that maybe they have calming pictures on the walls, (while waiting in the room to be wheeled in). Something other than plain walls to look at. They still deserve 5 stars!"
"DHAT has been a great place for my GI health needs. Everyone in the office are pleasant, easy to talk with, and great to work with. I love Dr Akerman. He is very easy to talk with and has a wonderful, happy attitude.

"I had a colonoscopy and an EGD. I couldn’t have asked for a smoother process. The staff at MCP excelled. Leslie, Jessica, and Lacee were wonderful. All I remember is the anesthesiologist telling me that I may feel some discomfort at the IV site when meds go in. Next thing I know, I woke up in recovery with no pain, no discomfort, no nothing. No issues. Thank you, Dr. Akerman."
"Dr Ackerman has a great bedside manner and positive attitude. He took his time with us, explained everything, answered our questions and followed up a couple days later to see if we had any more. I highly recommend him!"

"Dr Akerman is a highly respected and seasoned professional who handles even the roughest communications eloquently.

I would highly recommend him to anyone I know for any number of reasons! Thank you for a job well done Doctor!"
"Dr. Akerman is just about my favorite physician. He has an awesome laid-back vibe coupled with a great sense of humor. He is direct, but kind. He takes it upon himself to follow-up on any potentially related issues, too, which is reassuring. His NP, Heather, is equally good. She is responsive and informative. I feel very comfortable under their care and would highly recommend them."
"Getting a Colonoscopy is never an experience you are excited about, but I couldn't have been more comfortable having it done with Dr. Ackerman - literally and metaphorically. From the first time we met his easy, friendly demeanor and open communication made me feel comfortable, and my overall experience was excellent. He and his staff were excellent at communication, guidance, and willingness to help with any questions or concerns. My family member driver even commented that his visit after my procedure was enough to make her think of switching doctors! I checked out Google Reviews before booking my appointment and am happy to report that his 5* review proved 100% true in my book!!"

"Dr. Akerman's D-Magazine rating and high reviews here are well deserved. He is an exceptional physician who cares about his patients, listens and collaborates which is extremely rare. Equally important, he is embracing patient-facing technology that improves care. The rest of the practice (the other doctors) need to follow his lead and catch up on this. There is no excuse for paper forms, fax machines and telephone tag in modern medicine."
"Dr. Akerman and his team are thoughtful and thorough professionals. He will take the time to explain his findings with you that is easy to understand but also detailed."
"As this was my first time, there was some sort of anxiety existed to begin with. However, the entire process -- initial meeting, communication via the patient portal, advance payments, preparation for the procedure, state of mind prior to the procedure, during and after the procedure ... everything went smoothly and the communication from the Doctor and the supporting staff was exemplary.

Dr Akerman is a superb Dr who is very relatable, esp to young adults...explains and breaks things down in layman's lingo...doesn't rush the appt...just a grea well rounded doctor with a great staff.

"I've been seeing Dr. Akerman for a few years now, and I can always trust him to be honest and straightforward with me. No guilt trips, just the facts.

I give him the highest of recommendations."
"I was referred by Dr. Vance Neiman in Richardson, my GP Doctor, to Dr. Akerman.

"This is one of the best doctors I have ever had. He really cares about his patients and not giving up on them. I had a previous doctor say there was nothing more he could do.
