First class all the way. At 74, I've seen a few doctors in my time. Dr. Lessow and her staff are right up there at the top!

I went to see Dr. Lessow because I had been unhappy with other ENTs I'd seen, who seemed too eager to do surgery without really explaining the pros and cons. Dr. Lessow took lots of time explaining everything to me, drawing diagrams, answering questions, not rushing. Very friendly and approachable, and her staff is probably the most friendly of any doctor I've visited in NY!

The receptionist was organized and pleasant. The waiting room, toilet and examining room were all spotless and in excellent condition. Dr. Lessow was thoughtful, thorough and answered all my questions with patience. My experience today was extremely satisfactory.

Dr. Lessow is an absolutely wonderful doctor and human being. She is very kind, patient and low-key. She is open to new ideas and takes time to listen to her patient's concerns. I also went to several other specialists (doctors) that she recommended and each one was outstanding. In addition, her front desk staff are very professional and welcoming which is not always the case in many doctor's offices. I strongly recommend Dr. Lessow for your ENT medical care needs.

The staff was awesome. I was able to fill out my paper work before I got to the office online which saved a lot of time. I arrived 5 minutes late (1:20) because I couldn't find it but only waited about 10 minutes before I was seen even though there were no other patients in the room before me. There were two 1:30 appts who came in (which I felt bad for since it was 1:20 and I hadn't been seen yet) but I think it's common to schedule 15 minute appts. She did not rush me and was very very personable. I would highly recommend her. One of the most awesome things is that the lobby and bathroom look like an apt and her own paintings graced the walls. Very nice. She was informative, helpful and caring.

Dr. Alexa Lessow is the top of the line in all ways. Her medical knowledge and skills are of the highest. I feel totally trusting of her and her abilities. She truly cares about the patient, and takes all the time needed for treatment, and to inform the patient. She also lets the patient know ahead of time each thing she's doing, which makes me feel much more relaxed than with other Drs.

She is wonderful! The office is beautiful. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. My appointment with Dr. Lessow was by far the best ENT experience I have ever had. She not only answered all of my questions--and I had many -- but she made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I am thrilled to have a new ENT in NYC. I will never go to anyone else!

So nice and even called me back personally to check on me a week later. So glad I went to her. Only con is the front desk. They were very disorganized and over booked. I waited over an hour.
