Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

VA Referral to treat Lymphedema
I was referred to Dr Sacks by the VA to treat Lymphedema in my arm which developed after I underwent surgery at the VA to remove cancerous lymph nodes. He performed two surgeries to help re-create a flow of lymph fluid thru my arm and then one surgery to debulk my arm. These surgeries were done over a 3 year period. My experience with Dr Sacks was very positive and I recommend him for anyone dealing with lymphedema like me.

He did my breast reconstruction after my mastectomy. It is a train wreck. I have to wonder who really did the reconstruction as Johns Hopkins is a teaching hospital. I thought it would work out okay after time and healing. Boy was I wrong. I was 64 at the time. Maybe he thought it didn’t matter what I looked like. He was willing to put a nipple on it, but to me that was ridiculous. No wonder he moved on to St. Louis. I do not recommend.

Dr. Sacks is careless, insensitive and disorganized. He botched my surgery and never acknowledged it. Very poor follow-up plan. He answers questions with vague, unprofessional answers. Would not recommend him to my worst enemy.
