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.

Seems ok but needs training
Rested his arm on my breast while giving an ear cleaning- my boyfriend was in the room too. Female PA had no problem with this and didn’t do that prior to him so I know it’s not a me thing. Needs to figure out how to reposition his arms while working on a client to remain respectful or lay a cushion down between if that’s what he needs to do to reach the ear. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and avoidable.

Exceptional bedside manner
Dr. Cardoso was very pleasant right from the start not only did he do the exam, he also explained everything that he was doing, explained what he found, and explained it in terms that I could actually understand what he was saying. Any questions that I asked, he gave me an honest answer. At the end of my visit he asked me if there was anything else that I needed that wasn’t already taken care of. He was very warm and gentle and pleasant as a As a doctor could be. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking ENT doctor, He is exceptional.

Excellent experience
Very friendly and attentive. Dr. Cardoso and his assistant were very thorough and I felt that all my concerns were addressed. It was quick, painless and gave me peace of mind. He will be removing a bothersome cyst on my jaw and I feel relieved to have such a high quality practitioner handling something that I was previously very nervous about. My entire experience at the Yale Old Saybrook Specialty Center was top-notch.

Excellent ENT doctor
Dr Cardoso is the 2nd ENT doctor I have had, and far exceeds my previous experience. Dr Cardoso is happy to answer questions and give advice on daily habits to keep my nose happy. After I expressed concern about hoarseness after talking for 2 hours, he checked my throat too and gave me some ideas for relief. Excellent experience.

Dr. Cardoso Styloidectomy surgery.
Dr. Cardoso, treated me for an elongated hyoid bone that was causing me some terrible pain in my glossopharyngeal nerve. I had been wrestling with the pain for the better part of the year, with MRIs and CT Scans not showing the cause. He reviewed my CT scan and discovered what others had not. As has been my experience with Yale surgeons, he is a step above in so many ways. The surgery went well, he communicated effectively, and he gave me a ton of hope. I recommend him and his entire team to any body that has any ENT issues. I'm certain if he can't fix it, he'll find someone who can.
