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.

WORST DOCTOR EVER. Did not wash hands. Walked in after i did to the main building then proceeded to give me a shot without telling me what is in the shot. No computer. No staff. No one in the office except me and him. Was genuinely scared he was going to drug me and kidnap me. Outdated equipment from the 70s. Without a proper station to do the shot as we did it in the waiting room. Then told me to come back a week later for another shot. I am not going. DO NOT SEE.

Was excited to get my Fiance in here quick as he had issues with his ear. We got there, and Doc had no office staff, no computers. And did not take a bank card as payment. He asked us to mail him cash. He didn't wash his hands between patients, his whole office smelled like moth balls and nursing home, his equipment didn't even look up to date. We left with " nothing wrong " only to visit a completely different ent that told my Fiance he had a bacterial fungus infection in his ear. What a joke.

Never Again. in Cleveland – Oct 11, 2017
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ong?
Worst experience ever. No office staff. Gave me an injection of steroids that did nothing. Needed a new authorization for c-pap. He never did give the company the script with all the C-pap information. He couldn't seem to get it right. He also said I have a deviated septum and need surgery. No ENT Doctor ever said that before. Last, but not least, he said I am addicted to my c-pap!? I would highly recommend everyone to stay away from this doctor.

Doctor had no office staff, no computer system. Dr did not wash hands between patients and prepared an injection out of my sight, leaving me questioning the sterility of the needle as no medical disposal containers were visible. Dr took no medical history before administering shot except to ask about my allergies.
