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.

Consistently wonderful
Ignore the negative comments. Dr. Miner was wonderful when he performed our young kids’ ear tube and adenoid surgeries years ago. Now that I am the patient, I found that he is as caring and compassionate as always. He took time with me and advised me about next steps. You’ll be in good hands with him.

Dr. Miner met with me for less than 15 minutes. The appointment was so bizarre that I strongly suggest to everyone reading this, to see a different E.N.T. The demeaning manner and tone he utilized with me during this appointment was unlike any other Physician appointment I have ever experienced I wish I could provide more details - but I may need to proceed with this situation.

Did nothing!
Went in for significant ear pain. Minor acted like I was making it up. Hearing test okay, so offered no help. Left with no treatment. Waste of time seeing the supposed ENT “specialist”!

Disappointed – Dec 31, 2022
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Miner?
Dr. Miner had removed my brother’s tonsils when he was ten and he was able to eat a chicken leg and mashed potatoes that same evening. Needless to say, I had no hesitation when I was 21 and my family doctor told me it was time for my tonsils to come out that I had to travel to Indiana and see Dr. Miner. I flew to Indianapolis on a Monday and tonsils removed on Thursday with no complications. Dr. Miner is the best!

I've been going to Dr. Miner since I was little and started having ear and throat problems and he did my surgeries back then & he now treats my 5 year old daughter and shes had tubes put in and he did absolutely amazing with her! He's super friendly and always talks to her and makes her feel comfortable. He did surgery on her twice because she needed new tubes put in and her tonsils & adenoids and everything went awesome and she was good to go. Plus, he actually cares unlike her PCP!

Dr. Miner has been my ENT doctor for many years. He diagnosed my Meniere's Disease (too much fluid in the inner ear) immediately. I had made multiple trips to my family doctor, and he kept treating me for an allergy for my bouts of equilibrium problems. Dr. Miner is easy going, patient focused, easy to talk to and listens. He uses a vacuum process to clean wax out of ears instead of the power-flush with water most med-checks and family doctors do.

My surgeon from the same practice was on vacation after my surgery. I started having profuse bleeding pouring from my nose and mouth. I called the emergency number. Dr Miner was on call. He told me to go to Columbus regional and they transferred me to Methodist after bleeding had slowed for him to treat me. After I got there, he refused to come to the hospital to treat me. He left me there for hours when I had been bleeding and said I needed to go to my regular scheduled office visit. Horrible.
