Dr. Matthew Martin Akers, MD

It's been 3 years since Dr. Akers removed the Melanoma from a lymph node in my face. It had traveled from a malignant mole by my eye. I will always have a scar to see in the mirror everyday ,but it could be a lot worse. He went above and beyond to find the path and nodes where the cancer had traveled. I do wish they had an easier cheaper way for reconstruction as I could not afford it. But I do feel like he was the second in the line of doctors who saved my life and for that I will forever be grateful of him.

VERY, VERY BAD! !!!!!!! I had a 30% tca peel. I already have the outcome on here as to my experience. Long story short, my face is a scared up mess and yes i had it done professionally. Today i drove for the second time two hours to see a dermatologist, he confirmed what i already knew. The dr. Who did my peel burned my face. Leaving it a SCARED up mess. I wish i would have never done the peel. I had a very pretty face and i just wish i had it back. I wish i wouldn't have let a couple marks on my face make me decide to have a tca peel. Now, well lets just say i hate people looking at me :( i hate being in public :(

Dr. Akers had saved my life from the moment i went and seen him to know this situation with melanoma on my back he was on top of it, and very aggresive with my surgery. He had also took out ten lymph nodes out from my breast. He is a very good,caring surgeon. I would recommend anyone i knew to go to him for any surgery what so ever.. hes very honest and up front about the situation to look forward to and be caution of for nothing shocking.I like him, and he had did a difference in my life!!!

Dr. Akers was the answer to our prayers. due to an injury, at age 6 our daughter need reconstructive surgery at age 13. she had by the time of surgery developed a very low self esteem and had become very shy. Dr. Akers discussed her condition and options directly with her and made her feel her opinion was important. We were also pleased with the outcome of her surgery and the changed in personality they allowed. She is a different person today thanks to Dr. Akers.

Dr. Akers is amazing!!!! He did a revision surgery of a breast reduction from 10 months earlier that a different doctor totally messed up. I am absolutly thrilled with the results ...his staff along with Dr. Akers treated me with respect and nothing but concern.. Together we came up with a plan that would we both were happy with..i just can't say enough good things about this doctor...

Dr. Akers did liposuction and tummy tuck and breast reduction on me about 2 years ago. I couldn't be more pleased. For the first time in years, I have no muffin top and my breast are actually the same size and not the first thing someone looks at when they look at me. Dr. Akers and his staff are excellent. Any future work I choose to have will definitely be done by him.

Dr. Akers performed a tummy tuck on me and the results were above and beyond my expectations. Office staff was courteous and never made me feel uncomfortable. I would definitely recommend Dr. Akers!!

wait time averaged anywhere from 15 mins and on one occasion 2 hrs in the patient seating area, but yet longer once taken back to treatment room. I still have complications from a cosmetic procedure which has been down played, disregarded and basically treated as a non issue. I have constant pain, burning, bulging, and swelling since this surgery last year. I was also over charged on at least three occasions when no procedure was performed. these visits were followups as continued after care to the surgery and the problems I was experiencing, however was billed as 'consultation' visit etc. My initial opinion was as satisfied but as time progressed and the issues never resolved I now live with compromised health. of course these comments will be removed from here and only favorable posts will be left for viewing.

gentle, caring, listened and had time for me. has my respect and confidence!answered my questions and told me what to expect.......no surprises - I like that!

Dr. Akers dead my breast augmentation several years ago. He did a great job as they look very natural which was exactly what I asked for. I would definately encourage others to go to him with any plastic or reconstructive surgery needs.

I had a mole removed on a Friday. The pathologist called my family doctor on Monday and said to move on it, this was melonoma. By Tuesday I was in Dr. Akers' office. The following Wednesday I was in surgery to remove the melonoma. Dr. Akers not only removed the rest of the mole but went into the lymph nodes to check for cancer there. He was very aggressive in my treatment. The second surgery he had been in Findlay all day but came to Lima just to do my surgery. In being so aggressive, he has saved my life. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Akers and his staff. They all went out of their way to make me comfortable when I was scared to death. Would highly recommend Dr. Akers to others.

I had a breast reduction performed by Dr. Akers over a year ago. He did a fantastic job & is a very caring & compassionate doctor. His staff is very friendly & caring also. I would highly recommend Dr. Akers!! Thanks Doc!!

Great bedside manner, very friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend.

I had liposuction and nose contouring performed by Dr. Aker. Prior to surgery the doctor had me stand completely naked in front of the entire surgical staff of half a dozen employees, including male staff members to be swabbed with antiseptic. I felt like I was being made to pay a humiliating price for wanting elective surgery. The liposuction is very lumpy and looks horrible. I cannot even consider even wearing shorts, it is so embarrassing. My nose developed odd bumps in a couple of locations within weeks of the surgery and when I expressed concern to Dr Aker he became rude, cold and acted like it was all in my head (which I can assure you is no)! He even went so far as to tell me that one of the obvious bumps was 'just a blackhead', how ridiculous. Be very careful before committing to any surgery performed by this doctor. If anything is not right, he will turn his back on you in a minute!

I was only in the 8th grade when I went to Dr. Akers for a consultation on whether he would be able to do a reconstuctive surgery on my nose. My mom and I both fell immediately in love with his practicing techinques especially his bed side manner. He never asked my mom what she wanted it was always what I wanted and he almost hid my mom from me so I could answer him with exactly how I felt. He is a great guy and does tremendous work. I will never forget my experience with him and his employees. His desk workers and nurse were always so pleasant and knew you by name when you walked in along with asking how you were doing each time. I would defintely go back to him if I ever needed another surgery that he does.

An absolutely fantastic doctor. Never met anyone who is so caring, sweet, and actually seems to care about you as an individual. I would highly recommend him to everyone. Did a wonderful job on an abdominalplasty...fantastic results!!!

Excellent reconstruction surgeon, a caring , down to earth doctor.

Excellent beside manner, great reconstructive work. A caring doctor who takes time with each patient.
