I've visited and have had surgery under Dr. Bhatt acharya, a few years ago. I still have chronic sinus problems, which he is adamant that there's nothing else that he can do!
I'm sure if I were rich or some celebrity, etc., He'd find a way to fix my problem. I know that extensive checking etc., With the turbines and all the sinus cavities, he could find out what is causing me to have to blow my nose through my mouth, which I HATE !!!, ITS Not the most pleasant thing,! But...praise God I'm still alive !!! It could be worse! You doctors are growing older year by year & you don't know what health issues you're going to endure. All I can say is what goes around does come back around. Praying for all of you .

The care and professionalism provided,supported by his years of experience and knowledge place Dr. Bhattacharyya in my Physicians Hall of Fame. Having experienced the best and worst of medical care throughout my life, I recognize excellence. Excellence measured by time spent in listening, diagnosing the condition, conversing in an understandable manner while providing possible solutions and treatment, and in demonstrating genuine concern for a patient's well being. If these were boxes, Dr. Bhattacharyya would have each of them checked. Also comforting is knowing that this is not an anomaly, as my experience with Dr. Bhattacharyya spans a period of years. Having confidence in a relationship is critical to its success, especially when that relationship impacts one's health and quality of life. My confidence, expressed in 5 stars, is simply the sum of the skills of a physician who is one of the best in his area of expertise, and the caring he clearly demonstrates.

Dr. Bhattacharyya was extremely patient and thorough in his explanation of a sinus system using color charts of a normal system. He then was able to attach a camera to a scope and display my sinus system on a screen while explaining everything in detail. He was very meticulous and patient in describing what he needed for our next visit. This is the best patient care I have ever experienced.

I have been seeing Dr. Bhattacharyya for almost a year now. I had a failed sinus surgery with a provider at my local hospital, then went for a 2nd opinion with another doctor at Mass Eye and Ear and had another awful experience. So I did my research and found Dr. Bhattacharyya, I'm so happy I did! He and his team are amazing to say the least! He is always on time, takes the time to listen to what I have to say and explains things to me so I understand. He truly cares and is great at what he does. He did a sinus revision surgery on me in June and it went great and relieved my pain. I still follow with him closely and will eventually need another corrective procedure. I should add that I am a nurse and have worked in healthcare for 17 years as well as have taken care of multiple family members. With that being said I have worked with a lot of healthcare providers and Dr. Bhattacharyya is truly one of the best. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing an ENT!

I have had 2 very successful nasal polyp surgeries with Dr. B over a 11yr. period.
It has been 4 years since the last surgery. Dr. check both sinus cavities with his
scope. Both were clear. He recommended a follow up appointment in 1 year.

Dr. Bhattacharya is a great doctor. I had sinus surgery with him and so did my 2 children. My friends were in disbelief when they saw me a few days after my sinus surgery and was almost completely recovered except for some minor congestion. My experience was absolutely excellent and his staff is outstanding and kind. I trust him with my family members.

I have had seen several specialists before Dr. Bhattacharyya. He was the first to review my scans with me, inform me what I was looking at and what the procedures would look like to correct the issues. The day of surgery and thereafter I cannot speak more highly of the not only the nurses, but the limited swelling and no visible bruising. He is HIGHLY recommended not only because he skillful at what he does, but is cognizant in not creating any other scar tissue that others do not when under the knife. Thank You for helping me breath better!

We have full confidence in Dr B. I am an OR nurse and my sister did not listen to me and had sinus surgery and septum at her local hospital referred by her PCP. Of course, that ENT could not clear out all the polps and disease, and he told her should would need another surgery in 8 weeks! I forced her to see Dr B after several of my workmates recommended him. He saw my sister, did her surgery, and in a single day surgery she is completely clear and doing great. He is the best.
