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.

Our family has been seeing Dr Sassoon for thirty years. He has a great bedside maner and he's brilliant at recognizing conditions that other physicians would miss. He delivered my child and now she is one of his patients.

Superb...worth paying up front, then submitting to insurance for reimbursement...Dr. Sassoon spent a long time discussing my medical history with me before examining me. Then he told me he thinks I'm a good candidate to be on BCPs for one more year before transitioning to HRT. Since I had a mammogram just two months ago, he said I should have another in ten months, as well as a pelvic ultrasound and a bone density test, but see him before that. He's a great doctor.

Dr. Sassoon delivered my two high risk babies. I was diagnosed with scleroderma and rheumatoid arthritis. He monitored my pregnancies after a late term loss while under another doctor's care. Dr. Sassoon was kind, supportive and completely professional in his prenatal oversight of my long journey from 3 losses to two full-term births. My children are now 25 and 22 years of age. I will never forget this good man and his knowledge of high risk women's struggles to become mothers.

Absolutely fantastic experience- I am so glad I found Dr. Sassoon. He was recommended to me by Cornell and he was so kind and caring and thorough. I feel in best hands and am already recommending him to friends. I also loved the personal nature and style of his office. And his staff are warm and very helpful. Could not be happier with my choice.
