    How was your appointment with Dr. Sacks?

    Aug 27, 2020
    I would definitely recommend Dr Sacks. My recent visit with Dr Sacks was amazing. She was everything you hope a dr to be. Dr Sacks cares about her patients. Her kindness and empathy was so refreshing. She is compassionate and a great listener. I felt she cared a lot and by performing a test in her office saved me a great deal of stress and additional time. I was really impressed by Dr Sacks and coming from me that is a lot. Cedar Sinai is very fortunate to have such a great doctor. I am grateful. Thank you Dr Sacks!!! Liz was also extremely nice. I was able to get an appointment and the staff is great!!
