I came in for a blocked ear (I think its ear wax) and to begin with he was looking in my ear cannel (9/14/2011) with a broken / cracked in half magnify loop. He never even used the common otoscope to look in my ear canal! He told me I had a small piece of ear wax and used a vaccume needle thing that was very painful and uncomfortable. It was so uncomfortable my head would unvoluntarily flench away and he rudley told me to stop or he may injure my ear badley. I asked if if most other people are comfortable doing this and he said yes, which i find very hard to believe. He said to relax because im making it worse. after that horrible expereince I went to do the hearing test. He didnt tell me how I did nor gave me any insight after it. I felt like it was soely for billing purposes. He than put some medication stuff on a qtip and swiped in on both of my ears without any explanation other than ok were all set thanks (basically) To his defense I told him i think my ear is better, (the blocked ear is very mild thus hard to tell if it got better or not immediatly) but in reality its still the same and now making another apt. somewhere else. I would advise to not go here...
