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.

I had an excellent appointment with Dr. Kimmel who has more than 30 years of experience. We spent more than 30 minutes during my initial visit. I felt that the exam was very thorough. Dr. Kimmel asked questions about my history to help with the diagnosis and he listened attentively and took the time to respond to all of my questions. At no time did I feel that I needed to hurry with the exam. Additionally, all other employees at the practice were professional, courteous, and friendly. I am confident that I received the best exam, treatment options, and alternatives possible. I would not hesitate to return to Dr. Kimmel or to highly recommend him to anyone seeking ENT help.

I'm a new patient of Dr. Kimmel who suffers from severe allergies and chronic sinusitis. Dr. Kimmel and Kristen took there time, listened to my issues, did a thorough exam & discussed a treatment plan. I found out I do have a deviated septum and never knew even though I had been to three other docs for my issue. I'm feeling better in a few days than I have for three months. Highly recommend!
