I have been using Dr. Sassoon for 29 years. Not only has he delivered my children, which were difficult pregnancies, but I have had other surgeries and he is the best.

My daughter had Dr Sassoon about a year ago. He was the most caring and professional Dr I have ever met. He visited her several times the day of her surgery. He just did not operate and leave her until the next day He was very concerned about her comfort. He made her stay very pleasant. His office staff goes out of their way to make you comfortable and help in whatever way they can. He is certainly the best doctor I have ever met.
