“I truly value my time with Dr. Sacknoff. She speaks to me as I want to be spoken to - as an informed adult. Without looking at my chart, she was conversant with me about my history, explored with me changes that had occurred since our last meeting with a level of curiosity and exploratory conversation that I truly valued. I never once felt spoken down to or that Dr. Sacknoff was just "phoning it in". Such a rare experience in medicine today. Not once did I feel like I was racing against a clock and that she was focused on getting our appointment over so she could get to the next patient. My complete experience - from making my appointment, being greeted by her genuinely warm front office staff, their use of appropriate technology and follow up were such a unique experience that I broke my own rule and wrote a review. ”

“Amazing service. I presented with an emergency situation after 2 hospital visits, and flying back up to see my primary care doctor. No referrals had appointments for 3+ months and only with NP’s instead of MD’s. This office got me in immediately. The doctor listened to everything I had to say. As a former medical worker she was able to answer detailed questions from a first-time patient she’d first met with excellent answers. A very ‘real’ doctor based strongly in reality; no-nonsense. More tests and scans were needed. She got me in immediately everywhere; even those fully booked made time for a very urgent situation. Extraordinarily great service from doctor and all office staff. Highly recommend - I was lucky to find her.”

She listened but was condescending Besides that everything was good No wait Answered my question Good staff
Verified patient
Rude doctor very bad attitudes not helpful and rude to their patients
Verified patient
I felt the doctor wasn’t very patient or empathetic for the reasoning I was there, She made me feel like I was wasting her time and spoke to me as if I wasn’t as intelligent as her if I didn’t understand or have information to certain questions. She may be a kind person generally but this was my personal experience and unfortunately it was negative, I would probably see a different physician next time. Other than that the ladies at the front desk were super sweet & helpful and the nurse was so kind to me, made me feel super comfortable, basically an angel!

My visit was for a specific abdominal discomfort that I am currently feeling and just felt that it was ignored and she said to just take over counter after I specifically said this happened 10 years ago n had upper endoscopy n had 4 ulcers. She didn’t seem concerned about it.
