:) Click to report rating    5/3/09 3 3 5 If you need an ENT - Steven Sacks is the doctor to see. New York Magazine's top doc list for several years. Dr. Sacks operated on me almost 12 years ago for chronic/pan sinusitis, polyp removal, nasal septum correction and extensive work on several sinus cavities. Post surgery - no pain, no black and blue marks and no discomfort on the removal of packing from both nostrils. I see him several times a year for my asnomia (loss of smell and taste) in my case due to polyps and infections. To say he is compassionate and caring is an understatement. He truly cares about his patients and is always looking for the best treatment to provide, without being invasive. Through these 12 years, he has never let me down, has always been there to provide me with the best treatment possible, and gets me smelling and tasting again. A bedside manner that one longs for - you won't be in better hands with anyone else.

:) Click to report rating *  1/6/09 2 2 5 Dr. Sacks is the best diagnostician I have ever known. I have sent countless friends and family members to him over the 21 years I have been his patient. That said, he often runs late, and the office staff can be very rude.

:) Click to report rating    2/12/08 5 3 5 Dr. Sacks is the best clinician I've ever seen, and I've seen many. I went in with one problem--one that was easily addressed--and he went out of his way to offer assistance on other chronic problems that were possibly related to his specialization. At each visit, he explained what he was thinking clearly and fully, and listened very well to everything I said. In the end, my problem was not related to the ear, nose, or throat, but he was still very helpful in many ways.

:) Click to report rating    12/12/07 4 4 5 I LOVE Dr. Sacks! He has been my ENT since my 1999 thyroid surgery and I cannot recommend him enough! He is kind, patient, knowledgeable, trustworthy and FUNNY!! Some of the office staff could use some patient etiquette or be told to find a job they like. That goes for some of the other doctors as well but they are the exception. Pauline and Dr. Sacks are really wonderful!!

:) Click to report rating    8/3/05 4 5 Excellent doctor. Unlike other doctors I have seen, Dr. Sacks did not merely give me a diagnosis/prescription and rush me out the door; he explained what my condition was and was willing to answer my questions.

:) Click to report rating    1/3/05 5 5 Dr. Sacks operated on my nose in 1988. I had a severe deviated septum, could not breathe and also hated my nose. Not only did he repair the deviated septum, but my nose looks much better that i could have imagined.would recommend him to anyone.

:) Click to report rating    10/11/04 4 5 My whole immediate family has seen Dr. Sacks and have trusted him for many years. We all totally trust him for any allergy or other ENT concern. He has performed sinus surgery on my dad and he wouldn't go to anyone else. He's a top doctor.
