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.

Suffered with dizziness and nausea and concurrent headaches for years! Dr. Arrigg diagnosed and treated me with the Ellen Omniax machine and I was a new woman! The nystagmus is back after 12 years and it’s time for me to return for treatment. This is a NON-INVASIVE treatment!

  • I felt respected
  • Listened & answered questions
  • Explained conditions well
  • Staff friendliness

Good luck trying to get through. Office closed, office closed,finally times when opened but not lunch times given when closed. On hold a lot, several times, finally got thru next day. No call back from nurse Bernadette, could not even make an appoointment for family member for the dizziness. Emergency room again for same problems. Eye department seems better staffed than ear problem department.

He did the same thing to me. After messing up the same surgery three times he poked a hole in my ear and now I’m constantly dizzy. He told me there is nothing he can do. He also put other diagnoses in my record that he never even tested me for. Now I’m trying to find a doctor that can help me because Dr. Arrigg took away the quality of my life. I was better off before he touched me.

I was a mess went I went to Dr. Arrigg and he and his staff have gone above and beyond to help relieve my ear pain. I fly quite a bit, and along with a sinus infection, I ended up in a great amount of pain in my right ear. Dr. Arrigg performed a Myringotomy and I am on my way to healing. Both Dr. Arrigg, and his staff followed up with me several times over the following days to make sure I was OK.

I went to this office hoping to find answers/relief to the fullness sensation on my right ear. Dr. Arrigg Jr. told me that my hearing was fine and suggested me to let him poke a hole to relief the fullness sensation on my ear. Since then, symptoms got worse and I haven't been the same person again. Three days later..... the office called me to come in again. No thank you. The worst Dr ever. Made symptoms worse and after poking the hole told "I don't know what to tell you" I hope you get better.

This place is like a factory. My husband went in to the office for an issue he was having. The doctor poked a hole in his ear and sent him on his way. $40.00 co-pay. Three to four days later, my husband having issue with same ear. The office told him to come in ....$40.00 co-pay for the SAME problem! Why do you have to be charged twice for the same problem? RIP OFF!!!
