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.

Unprofessional Office
My wife made an appointment for the morning of FEB. 6th. While making the appointment she verified they accept our insurance. When she checked in she was told her appointment was for a different day, but they would fit her in. After waiting an hour and a half she was called to check in. At that time she was informed they haven't been approved as a Tricare (insurance) provider and she would have to pay what Medicare didn't reimburse.

The doctor was polite but had to wait for 3 hours for an appointment that lasted no longer than 5 minutes. Lost half my work day sitting in a chair.

Worst experience ever. Don't know if we like the doctor, we never got to see him. But his staff was horribly slow, and rude. I arrived at 8:30 for a 9 a.m. appointment, with two special-needs boys both under the age of 7. We sat in the office in two different waiting rooms for a total of 3 hours, without ever seeing the doctor. The only thing we had done was each of the boys had a five-minute hearing test done. The other 2 hours and 50 minutes was spent waiting. Why have an appointment???

Hearing loss diagnosis. Age related but aggravated by wax accumulation. Hearing mush improved after outer ear procedure. Some high frequencies loss and low frequencies near normal. Did not push use of hearing aid but suggested further examination a year later.
