Dr Cho gave n a very thorough examination with careful and clear explanations! Delved deeply into a complex problem and addressed my concerns with compassion. Will be moving forward with her treatment for me with much hope for a positive outcome. read more

I had an ear infection, I went 3 times to a ENT and it was constant pain. DR Cho is was excellent and I wish she was in my network I strongly recommend her read more

Dr. Cho shows so much care to her patients even when there's a full waiting room. I've appreciated her expertise dealing with several ENT issues I've had! read more

I was told a diagnostic office visit as a new patient would be $300-. I was charged $800- "because Dr. Cho used an endoscope", without telling me that it was not part of her routine exam protocol (which it was for any ENT I ever visited). She recommended I get an MRI, the report and results were forwarded to her office within 2 days, and it took almost 3 weeks for her to get back to me about the results. read more

Saw Dr. Cho today for the first time. Extremely considerate, knowledgeable and really made me feel like my vocal issues were a priority. I've been seeing doctors who just don't understand SINGERS, but she really gets it and will make you feel heard. I'm so glad I was told about her office, because she is going to be my go-to ENT in NYC. Her front desk staff was very kind and personable. Additionally, I'm a weird night owl and left a voicemail at the office at 2 am on a Saturday morning and got a call on Sunday to schedule an appointment to come in! I was very surprised and thankful for this prompt communication. Thank you, Dr. Cho for helping me today and understanding singers like you do. Thankful to put my vocal cords in your hands! read more

Dr.Cho is one of the most trusted Specialists by the Met singers and voice professionals. Her knowledge is as great as her humble kind attention to every patient. Office is cosy clean and classy space, where sometimes we wait with respect for other patients who needs more immediate help, but the waiting time is not unusual or different from any other doctors office. At the end what matters is the highest professional quality and knowledge that Dr.Cho so kindly shares with her every patient. read more

Youngnan J Cho, MD - from The New York Times - Ear Nose & Throat Near Me - New York, New York

Dr Cho did nasal surgery on me a number if years back, when maybe a year later,I was visiting my reg ENT ,whose pretty world renowned, for annual check up Upon looking in my nose he coiled back and very animatedly claimed "You had NASAL SURGERY!" I replied " yes I did...why is it bad work?" He retorted "that's maybe the best nasal surgery I've ever seen!! Who was the Dr?" The answer DR Jenny Cho read more

I recommend her as an ENT. She is very professional and straight to the point. Her office does get busy at times and she sees alot of patients. So book early in the day (1st appointment of the day) if possible. Jessica (her secretary) is extremely helpful. read more

Dr. Cho is truly a lifesaver! As someone who recently moved to the city, I didn't have set relationships with a primary care physician, or any specialists. When I became very ill, I was luckily given Dr. Cho's information, and when I called explaining my information, they were able to fit me in the next day. Like most viruses, mine got worse before it got better, so there was a time where I was too ill to even make it into the office. Dr. Cho kindly helped me from afar via phone/text, which in my opinion was above and beyond! She was extremely kind, knowledgeable, and reassuring during the worst sickness I've ever experienced, and I feel very fortunate to have had her to get me through! read more

I went to see Dr. Cho a month ago based on the referral of my primary care physician. After waiting a full HOUR in a crowded, hot waiting room, Dr. Cho finally saw me. The referring physician said that Dr. Cho would be able to take care of my problem in the office. Dr. Cho informed me that I would need EXPENSIVE surgery to fix the issue. She did not take the time to seriously inform me of any other option that would fix the problem. Her staff was rude. When I called for more information on the surgery, the receptionist completely cut me off and was exceedingly disrespectful. When I had questions for Dr. Cho, I was informed that she doesn't even check her messages until the very end of the day so if there is anything urgent that comes up, she won't bother getting back to you until late in the evening or the next day. I felt pressured into doing the surgery and sought out a second opinion. THANK GOD! The other ENT actually explained what was going on with my health. He took the time to explain not one, but three treatment options, including letting the problem lie for a month to see how it progressed. Thank goodness I decided to wait because the problem went away on its own within a month. Dr. Cho was going to cost me over $4,000 in medical fees for an issue that resolves on its own without intervention. I will never, ever, go to her again, nor do I recommend her at all. Never again! read more

Dr. Cho is great! Very professional and personal. She answers all the questions- both petty and big-- that you might have. I also appreciated Dr. Cho being super thorough and making me feel like I'm being well accounted for...... That is, when I'm actually there. I blame this partially to the front desk. They're great at scheduling the appt for you, but impossible to get hold of Dr. Cho through them when you want to follow up on the lab results or things like that. It took me weeks to hear about my lab results, and needless to say, I was anxious throughout that time. No way I'm paying $$$ (specialty fee) just to drop in and hear about my lab results! It's also a pain to deal with the back-and-forth business of me calling them, Dr. cho not being available, me leaving a message with the front desk, not hear back for days, me calling the office again and leaving a message. read more

Dr. Young is great! ...if you want unnecessary procedures and outrageous billing of said procedures. Went in for some answers on reflux issues I was having. She looked in my ears and commented that there was some wax in there, and offered to remove it. For this 90 seconds of unnecessary work, the charge was $380.70. They paid the only-less-insane-by-comparison amount of $200, of which a portion was passed to me. This happened on two different office visits in a calendar month. I got the bill for all of it at once. I called to dispute that I had no idea this would be charged (after all, I can do the same procedure at home with water and hydrogen peroxide in less than 5 minutes), and she refused to budge, stating that she had nothing to do with the charge. She offered to discount the amount if it was a hardship. My insurance company won't budge, obviously. Seriously, go see Dr. Cho. ...if you love dealing with doctors that will casually offer to run your bill up unnecessarily. read more

Got a late appointment (6:45pm, showed up closer to 6:50) on a Thursday for a nose cauterization. Having gotten it done multiple times before, I know it's a simple, in-office procedure. The waiting area and office was empty when I got there, and Dr. Cho saw me immediately after I'd filled out the requisite paperwork. She asked me what was wrong, confirmed what I needed, and finished in less than 5 minutes. She pointed out that I had a deviated septum but noted that in the absence of adverse symptoms there was no need to do anything. read more

This is an extremely badly run business. Receptionist requires a brain transplant. It was an 8am early morning consult but already running late. After a long time on paperwork receptionist failed to obtain insurance authorization in advance of the consultation, then tried to do it when I should have been with the doctor. This did not work and after 45 minutes I had to leave for work. After nearly a month of waiting I went to see the Doctor again this morning. Again running late at 8am and they wanted me to fill out the papers again, even though I'd already emailed them. After refusing and relocating to the lobby I called the office multiple times to speak directly with Choi to complain but was put on hold for twenty minutes and no answer. Later I sent the doctor directly an email requesting assistance getting a consultation that fits my schedule and no further obstructions. Big surprise- no reply. Take my advice and don't waste your time allowing this very unhelpful and obstructive "business" to waste your time. There are plenty of ENTs throughout the city who will at least pretend that you matter for your money, unlike this mob. read more

Dr. Cho is the best ENT in the business, hands down. I trust her completely. She's especially knowledgeable about opera singers and getting through gigs when you're sick. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Cho for years. She treated my late husband and Mom as well. She's gentle in her treatment, and personally warm and very interactive which is not always the case with physicians which I unfortunately have had many experiences. I agree the only problem is the wait time. It's a very small office and a busy practice. Often despite your appointment you may feel very frustrated as you keep checking your watch. Despite that, I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I review doctors b/c it's hard to find good ones in this city. I was referred to Dr. Cho by my GP for tonsil issues. I have seen her a couple of times and she recently took my tonsils out. So I think i'm qualified to review. She is fantastic. You can usually get in the day of if you're sick (may have to wait if there's no opening). Otherwise, if you have an appointment, she sees you straight away. She just moved to a new office on 57th and it is very nice (an upgrade from the previous office). My tonsillectomy was as great an experience as you can expect (of course, post surgery sucks). I would definitely recommend her and plan on keeping her as my ENT. Great doc, great office, no waits. What more do you want? read more

Dr. Cho is a fantastic doctor! She solved a chronic health issue no other doctor had been able to figure out (and I've seen many!) Her office is very quick and I feel they are respectful of my time. They work around my schedule and are always able to find an appointment time for me, and I've never had to wait an excessive amount of time to be seen once I'm there. Dr. Cho is very kind, and remembers lots of small details about my life. I get very nervous at the doctor, and she is always willing to explain things to me and answer all my questions. She also is very reasonable and measured, more than once she has saved me from going through with unnecessary and/ or expensive medical recommendations that other doctors have suggested for my chronic ear infections. I am so grateful to her!! read more

I love Dr. Cho! She is super nice, always explains everything, makes sure you understand what is going on, and really cares about her patients. There has definitely been more than one occasion where I was really sick and called Dr. Cho's office at the last minute for help and she squeezed me in the same day. Seriously, if you need an ENT in the city then you can stop looking, you just found the best. read more

Dr. Cho has a relaxed, caring personality. Many of her patients are stage performers. In 2011, the Metropolitan Opera brought Dr. Cho on tour to care for its star singers. read more

Went to Dr. Cho as recommended by my voice teacher. I'm not a Dr. person. Usually I'm terrified. She was the nicest person ever and explained everything in depth. She set my fears at ease and I would reccomend her to anyone who needs an ENT. read more

I went to Dr. Cho because of the nice reviews on yelp--That was my first mistake. I believe people are being paid to write reviews about this lady. Her staff is unprofessional, and not helpful in the slightest. Cho is very dismissive and basically she's there to take your money. I spent money to hear she doesn't know what's wrong with my situation. Her hustle is to keep you coming back, and I will not fall into the naive category. Also, she's encouraging me to do repeat procedures I did just a month beforehand, and her solution for all problems is to come back again and again -- forcing unnecessary trips and co-payments. WARNING: DO NOT GO! You're Welcome! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Cho for more than a decade and she is phenomenal. She is invested in her patients, thorough in her exams, and committed to finding a course of treatment that everyone is comfortable with. read more

Dr. Cho is a great doctor. Unlike many other doctors that I have seen in NYC, Dr. Cho takes her time to thoroughly do a proper checkup and discuss any concerns that you might have. read more

Dr Cho is both competent and caring. I had septoplasty surgery about 4 weeks ago to correct a deviated septum and nasal polyps. I was anxious about the operation and the procedure. The work done by Dr Cho was excellent and even though I am in recovery still, I breathe much better. Dr Cho has been professional throughout the process, she has been accessible in terms of me being able to make appointments, she has been punctual and has returned calls when I needed information or reassurance regarding the procedure. Every case is unique so your outcome will differ, but my experience with Dr Cho has been positive and I would recommend her to family and friends. read more

Dr. Cho is the best! I've had a terrific experience with her. She recently performed my tonsillectomy and I couldn't be happier with how the surgery went. She is a skilled and caring doctor, and I feel that I am in good hands with her. I highly recommend Dr. Cho! read more

Dr. Cho is nice, but seems inept. She had no idea what was wrong with me and could not refer me to anyone else to help me. In the end, I left without a diagnosis and she charged my insurance $800 for a 10 minute visit that resulted in no help for my health!!!!!! After the visit, I started researching my symptoms online through webmd and diagnosed myself and found another doctor to confirm it. My health problem is completely common and according to webmd, any ENT should be able to diagnose it. I suppose you have to pay over $800 for a diagnosis from this doctor. read more

I was referred by Dr Cho by my primary care doctor. She is a through and patient doctor. I had seen another ENT due to temporary hearing loss due to a chest infection a few months ago and decided to follow-up with Dr. Cho. She knows her stuff. No rushing you out. Asks important questions. And I was able to get an appt on the same-day by waiting and she squeezed me in, without making me feel like I was a squeezed in patient. She even saw some sinus stuff that I wasn't going in for. I really liked her energy -- very friendly, caring and professional. read more

After two visits, I'm thrilled to recommend Dr. Cho. She is thorough, patient and funny - imagine, a NYC doctor with a sense of humor! Most importantly, she took the time to really listen to my symptoms; I did not feel at all rushed. read more

After having a sore throat and swollen glands for more than month, finally decided to make an appt with Dr Cho. She squeezed me in on the same day, 5 min wait time (rare for last min appt in NYC), examined me thoroughly without feeling rushed, diagnosed and treated me accurately, and I was completely better within 3 days! She even waived my co-pay as a professional courtesy and I've referred many patients to her over the years and so far have no heard any complaints from any patients! read more

I really like Dr. Cho. She is very caring and helpful. I noticed that the people that gave her bad reviews can't even sign their name. I just happened to see these reviews because I needed to look up her number. read more

I love Dr. Cho! She has been my ENT for a few years now and has performed two necessary surgeries on me. Her bedside manner is wonderful. She's very caring and makes me feel that there is always a solution to any problem I present her. She is a great listener and spends a good amount of time with me each time I visit (i.e. she's very thorough). I've been able to reach her on the weekends during emergencies, and she's always followed up with me multiple times after both of my surgeries. Her receptionist leaves a lot to be desired and can be difficult to deal with. I've found that telling her I have an emergency is a good way of getting a chance to speak with Dr. Cho. She'll usually pass on the message and the Doctor will call me back that same day. For those out there looking for an ENT, I'd say try to look past the receptionist cause she is no reflection of the great Doctor you want to see. read more

READ ME!!! PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD JOIN HANDS ON THE LOVE TRAIN!!! First and foremost, I never write reviews - I'm not on Facebook and I still use a flip phone, which i love (personal preference). I got an emergency appointment.....I'M A NEW PATIENT and in less than 13 hrs I was seen by Dr. Cho! She was pleasant and did not ignore her patients sitting in the waiting area when she walked by....Hey, sometimes that's a sign to run for the hills. She came out to greet me and take me into the examination room. She sat down and listened and I felt so comfortable with her. This is my first experience with a severe sinus & ear infection which includes a ringing in the ears that is maddening. She examined me thoroughly and gave me no surprise jabs in my ear canal. She was professional, knowledgeable and I DID NOT FEEL RUSHED! Anyway, she gave me a few options and told me to come back in a week to run some basic labs and do a follow-up! Can you believe I've never had an allergy test! Have I sabotaged myself all of these years and suffered for nothing? She didn't necessarily tell me what I wanted to hear ....she was just a breath of fresh air (no pun intended). So I send this current review in to tell you that you don't have to look any further! If you are afraid of the dreaded scope.....look no further! Dr. Cho has been added to my "love train" (that's just people that make me happy). She's become my new friend! And did I mention Jessica! She's the Receptionist/Assistant....not sure of her title....just know that she cared enough to make it all possible and saving me from another day of pain and fever. THANK YOU JESSICA! Ok, so she had to clean out my ear too and while I haven't seen a bill just yet...., for service, she will always get a 5 Star. Front Desk 5 Star! My 5 senses are way more important and truthfully priceless. People, please let's focus on the service and fairly grade her. I don't have gobs of money....heck....I don't have any money. What I do know is the focus really was to help me and I'm incredibly appreciative. I'm not crazy....just crazy about great service and results! Can I get an AMEN! Have a great weekend and I hope this comments sends Dr. Cho many more patients. read more

Dr. Cho is incredible. She's the only doctor in NYC I know of who calls to follow up on how you're doing. She is patient, kind, and excellent at what she does--definitely NOT your clinical, let-me-get-you-out-of-here-as-soon-as-possible type. I highly recommend Dr. Cho. read more

I was referred to Dr. Cho by a longtime friend of mine and patient of hers. She is one of those doctors you want to keep forever because you know you can trust her with your ENT issues. She does not rush through appointments, she is thorough, patient, kind and caring, and I do not normally have to wait for more than 10 minutes to see her (so rare in NYC!). It is always great to be able to add a doctor to my "great doctors" list, and if I have any reservations about a physician, I look for someone else. Thanks to my friend's referral, finding my ENT was a breeze, and I would recommend Dr. Cho to anyone seeking a professional, highly competent and wonderful physician. read more

I saw Dr. Cho recently for a minor surgical procedure, which she performed in the office. She was gentle, skillful and reassuring. One week later, the incision is almost invisible and I have no discomfort. I highly recommend the excellent doctor. read more
