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.

BAD IMPRESSION, WENT IN WITH DIZZINESS THINKING EAR PROBLEM, HE DIDN'T EVEN LOOK IN BOTH EARS, ONLY LOOKED AT LEFT EAR. STATED ALOT OF PEOPLE COME TO HIM WITH DIZZINESS AND HE CAN ONLY SEND THEM FOR HEARING TEST. VERY DISAPPOINTED, RATE A 1 (1). HOW CAN YOU BE AN ENT AND ONLY LOOK IN ONE EAR!

He is a really nice doctor, friendly staff, but he got what was wrong with my nose completely wrong. I went in with nosebleeds while pregnant and a sore in my nose. He just said that it was allergies and the sore and I would probably just have nose bleeds from here on out. I went and got three more opinions and it turns out i had an infectious mass in my nose that needed to be removed (which I saw from pictures). I had a deviated septum which kept cutting into the mass causing it to bleed.

Dr. Bolinger is a very caring and professional physician. He saw my son and performed a procedure in the clinic room. He was very thorough and explained all the different options that were available for us to choose from. He explained things throughout the procedure so that my son would not be scared. Job well done.
