I scheduled my first appointment with Dr. Portnoy and went in for my consultation. My first impression of him is that he is very kind, thorough, and explains everything. I went in for my CAT scan and went in for a follow up visit to discuss the next steps for my treatment. The CAT scan showed a severely deviated septum and bone spur as discussed above, so we scheduled the appointment for surgery. The surgery went wonderfully and he came over to check on me in the recovery room. He also personally called the very next day to check on me as well.He is a brilliant man, he is very thorough, he is very kind and there if you have any post operative questions. I am around two months out of surgery and I can say this is the best thing I’ve ever done in my life. I have not been able to breathe this well for as long as I can remember. I will forever be a fan of Dr. Portnoy, he changed my life, my quality of life and I no longer run around looking for tissues. No more stuffy nose!Please don’t hesitate to see him so that he can change your life for the better. Follow all post op instructions and you will have great success like me! He is brilliant! read less

I had been suffering for 12 years with a deviated septum and a bone spur preventing my nasal passageways from getting enough air. I finally set up a consultation and met with Dr. Portnoy. I have to say, I love his disposition and bedside manner. He is very thorough in his evaluation and we discussed the next steps in order to see what all was really going on. I received my CAT scan, went in for my second visit with Dr. P and we scheduled the surgery to correct my severely deviated septum. I am now around two months out of surgery and I have to say it was the best thing I've ever done in my life. I wish I would've done it sooner. He is one of the best doctors ever!!! He called the next day to check on me and make sure I was feeling OK. The surgery went smoothly and he reiterated that I had a severely deviated septum that that he straightened. I can honestly say I breathe so much more freely and my quality of life has substantially improved. I'm so happy to say that I am no longer the "tissue girl" always blowing her nose. Follow his post operative directions completely and you will have amazing results like I did.I would recommend him 10 million times over. He is absolutely amazing. His bedside manner, his disposition and his knowledge is impeccable. STOP WAITING AND GO SEE HIM AND LET HIM CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOR THE BETTER!!!!! read less

I soon learned why! I arrived at Dr. Portnoy's office almost unable to speak and very frightened. I was immediately reassured by his clear clinical intelligence, relatable manner, and professional ease and confidence. He quickly diagnosed the problem and soon there after performed surgery. He was available immediately for all of my post-operative concerns. Not only did he possibly save my life, but my voice post-recovery sounded better than it had in years. I recommend him whole heartedly. I also am a doctor and rather difficult to please. I am eternally grateful to him. read less

He quickly identified the issue and was confident I'd be able to experience a significant increase in quality of life after surgery. Flash forward a few months and I'm now breathing, sleeping, and feeling better than I ever have. I'm grateful for his skills as a surgeon and excellent bedside manner throughout the whole process, as well as the staff who made scheduling everything simple! read less

I have been to the allergist, taken all the medicines and nothing worked. Dr. Portnoy analyzed my situation, made a determination and and we scheduled a surgery to clear my sinuses and fix my deviated septum. Literally when I awoke from surgery I was breathing better than I had been for as long as I could remember. I now sleep with my mouth closed every night, have almost no stuffy nose ever, and my life is immensely better. Dr. Portnoy and his staff are punctual, attentive, patient and thoughtful. Also I might add he is one heck of a surgeon! Thank you Dr. Portnoy for giving me the ability to breath through my nose again!Total game changer! read less
