Excellent! Dr. Senchak surprised me by doing a very thorough exam, contrary to most other ENTs I had seen before. He really took the time to listen to me and to write everything I said. His diagnosis and treatment recommendations were extremely helpful. I fully recommend Dr. Senchak to anyone...

Review for Dr. Patel

From top to bottom of this appointment he was condescending, hateful, and just downright unhelpful. He came in with a preconceived notion and despite evidence shown he would not change his mind! DO NOT USE
