Glenn Isaacson, MD, FACS, FAAP

Amazing doctor and my family has been with him for 20 years. So sad to hear he’s no longer at Temple. Need to find you Doc! Meg needs a check up! We lived super far away too but he was worth it!

I brought my eighteen month old son to Dr. Isaacson recently and had a fantastic experience. Everyone on the staff seemed like they truly love working with children and stayed patient while my highly energetic toddler fought his testing. We had zero wait time and the office is a cheery, welcoming space for children. Thanks for the great visit!

Dr. Isaacson is a phenomenal doctor. He was so kind and his bed side manner is amazing. My daughter had her tonsils and adenoids out and he took great care of her. We had a bit of a scare and had to take her St. Christopher's Children's Hospital and when I called the office of Dr. Isaacson he called back within 5 minutes. He also wanted a call back from the doctor at the hospital to make sure she was ok because he is a worrier. I've never had an experience greater then with him. Highly recommend.

DR. Isaacson treated both my children. My younger son needed tubes and my older son needed adnoids removed and tubes. He is wonderful. He has a very calming personality , explains everything and makes you feel comfortable as a parent. He has a very nice calm way with children also which is a huge plus when you have to put your child under. I would highly recommend him.

Called this office as my child had a pretty bad tongue laceration after he fell and bit it. We were given an appointment right away. Dr Isaacson saw my son and took an excellent care of him. One of the best. Now I am bringing in another child as I have full confidence in Dr Isaacson.

My husband and I took our 12 day old to see Dr. Isaacson after her not passing her hearing test in the hospital. She passed both ears. When discussing our history of ear issues with our 3 year old and explaining she now had ear pain he took a look in her ears and saved us a trip to the pediatrician! If we ever need an otolaryngologist again, we will be back to see him!

We had a great experience. I took my 14 yr old with swollen lymph nodes and was very worried. Dr. Isaacson was awesome. He not only was extremely competent and knowledgable, he was funny and made us feel we were in good hands. He explained everything to us thoroughly and we could tell we were with an expert in his field.

Not sure why Dr. I doesn’t have better reviews but people need to get w the program. This dr saved my sisters life when she had childhood cancer and he found it in her lymph node and tonsil (no one could find it)

He also operated on me later down the road for tonsil and adenoids and completely changed the way I breathe. His bedside manner is excellent too and he’s a nice guy. 5 stars

5 star it is!!! I wish I could give a million..

Dr. Isaacson is amazing, he is very patient and the most considerate man. He well rounded with children. We first came to Dr. Isaacson when my daughter broke her nose, then my son had an eardrum irruption and of course we came back I was freaking out, it was right before a flight out of the country.. dr. Isaacson staff were very considerate when I walked in the office announced.
I was seen in no time.....
Thank you all :)

Good doctor 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Atendimento foi bem rápido mas muito bom. Me tranquilizou e foi bem atencioso com minha filha. Uma pena que ele vai se aposentar em breve. Fui atendida com atenção e qualidade e eles usaram intérprete para que nos comunicássemos, pois não falo inglês.

We saw Dr. Isaacson in April 2018. He had put my oldest sons tubes in when he was 2 and did a great job so I figured he would be able to help with the issues my middle child was having. I had a suspicion that my son had a very rare autoimmune disease called relapsing polychondritis. I had pictures to back up why I thought he had it. His pediatricians were baffled and his Asthma and Allergy specialist had no clue either but agreed with me that something was not right.

Dr Isaacson looked over my son, barely listening to what I was saying, when he asked to see a picture he glanced at it briefly and said no, he doesn't have that and that my son just complains too much. I left that office and sobbed in my car because I felt like no doctors were listening to me and wanted to give me the time of day to help my child.

Luckily, one of my friends referred me to her daughter's ENT at chop and he has since been diagnosed with Relapsing Polychondritis and is part of the research study at the NIH. I have actually never written a review for anyone before but the way Dr Isaacson made me feel like a paranoid mother, after that appointment, I wouldn't wish that on any parent.

I took my 14 year old son in for a consult with Dr. Isaacson regarding frequent sore throats that he gets. I was curious if he might have any insight as to why this is happening, if there might be anything wrong, and if he had any suggestions to prevent them. Despite the other positive reviews, both my son and I felt he was condescending, arrogant, and brash in his demeanor. He was quick to brush off my concern, just saying to “Give him Motrin."… and… "Why does he care if it’s only a few days with a sore throat?” My son was shocked when he reached at him, and pulled his sweatshirt at his chest to bring him towards him, and he made him feel foolish when Dr. Isaacson asked him a question and he wasn’t quick with his answer. Overall, Dr. Isaacson had nothing constructive or valuable to add, and I was extremely disappointed with this consult. It was a complete waste of our time (which was over 45 minutes in the waiting room).

Dr isaacson took out wax from my 3 y o daughter’s ears but tightened her arms and taking it with force using instruments despite it was extremely hurt for her... i was in shock and couldn’t stop him and blame myself even after 1 year.. he is cruel dr, he also told me once: yes she has a nose infection but I don’t want to give you an antibiotic.. and then says: ok, you can give her for couple times if you want to make her breathe easier.. maybe he used to be a good dr but now it’s seem he tired of Otoloringology and lose his humanity (
