I appreciate that Dr. Fyfe tries to avoid surgery, if possible. But, if you do end up needing…read moresurgery, I recommend getting a second opinion before you move forward with surgery. Dr. Fyfe performed my surgery in March (balloon sinuplasty and "roto rooter" holes). The surgery required general anesthesia, and recovery from the "roto rooter" was long and painful. After recovery, I felt great for about 6 weeks. Then, in May I got a sinus infection and took antibiotics. In June I got another sinus infection, another follow up, and more antibiotics. In July...another sinus infection. After that, I sought another opinion, and found that there are more modern and effective procedures that do not require cutting holes (the "roto rooter") and do not require general anesthesia. I had another procedure done last week to fix my sinuses (the holes Dr. Fyfe made weren't draining properly) and it has been a much easier recovery so far. Only twilight sedation was needed, and it was done in-office instead of in a surgery center. I feel more confident now that my infected days are over, but I wish I would have gotten a second opinion before surgery with Dr. Fyfe so that I could have avoided the permanent and unnecessary holes in my sinuses.

Dr.Nason is very knowledgeable and he will make it very clear, he is extremely condescending and…read morelikes to talk more than listen. The entire office communication was extremely difficult, I would leave multiple voicemails and not hear back for days and weeks. I was going to have a tonsillectomy as well as sinus and septum surgery all at once to his recommendation, it took almost 2 weeks for them to inform my insurance and when I called to finally schedule he surgery it was more days of waiting for a call back. I had time to seek another opinion, discuss and schedule surgery with another doctor, they called me back the day before my tonsillectomy with my more responsible doctor, who split up the procedures, if not I don?t know how I would recover since the tonsillectomy has put me through the ringer. Nason is money hungry and arrogant. Their office is unhelpful. Do NOT go to this office.

Before my office visit I was able to have a telemedicine visit, even as a new patient. I greatly…read moreappreciated that. I was able to fill out all my patient forms online ahead of time, so they were completely ready for me when my appointment began. Dr. Young was very understanding of my issue and explained the different options I have for addressing it. This resulted in an in-person visit. I was greeted quickly and very friendly.  The waiting room is very calming; you only hear the light music from the front desk and the hum of the air purifier. The nurse who took me back to the room and took my vitals was very friendly and made me feel welcome. My visit with Dr. Young was awesome.  She explained everything she did, step by step, and was patient with all of my questions. Building is in a quiet area and has ample parking. Hand sanitizer is available throughout the building and outside the office door.  Masks are required throughout the building and offices, including this office.

She did a head CT that revealed a deviated septum, and referred me to Dr. Wassmuth. I was quite impressed by the kindness, courtesy, and professionalism when I first visited the office of Capitol Otolaryngology. Dr. Wassmuth examined my nose and suggested balloon sinuplasty with turbinate reduction. After much trepidation, I scheduled the surgery, which is done in-office. The process of fixing my nose didn't take all that long. The anesthesiologist, Dr. Jack Carsner, was excellent, as were all those I met in the operating room. The procedure apparently went off without a hitch, and my husband drove me home where I rested the remainder of the day. Within a day or so I was feeling much better. I am still considered to be recovering after a week, but have already experienced noticeable improvements in my breathing. My husband says my snoring was virtually gone within a day after the procedure. I've had a variety of seemingly-minor health concerns, that when put together, have led to other problems. Snoring, dry mouth, dental issues, and poor sleep quality turned out to have (at least in part) had a common root cause in breathing problems. Hopefully all will improve or resolve before very long. If you have any kind of breathing problems, including snoring and symptoms like dry mouth when you awaken, you may benefit from a visit to Dr. Wassmuth. I highly recommend his medical practice.

It was my great fortune to choose Dr. Daniel Slaughter as my sleep apnea doctor when my former…read moredoctor retired. Dr. Slaughter has a double board certification in both Otolaryngology and Sleep Medicine, and has over 30 years of experience. He trains other ENT doctors to use his balloon technique. If you have to have deviated septum or sinus surgery, or need help with sleep apnea, I highly recommend this physician for your treatment. He helped develop a minimally invasive technique called balloon sinuplasty. I have heard many horror stories regarding recovery from people who experienced deviated septum surgery in other ENT doctor's offices. I experienced nothing but positivity yesterday. When I arrived for surgery, from the front desk staff who greeted me and checked me in, to every single person I encountered, I felt at peace. The nurses are exceptional, especially Karen, who checked on me in the recovery room, and the nurse who stayed with me after surgery (I don't remember her name). When Karen had me prepped for surgery and walked me into the surgery room, I saw the doctor, the anesthesiologist, and at least 3 nurses, standing in a simi circle around the chair, all smiling at me, as if they were the welcoming committee! It gave me such a feeling of peace, and I knew they were going to take good care of me. Every single encounter was first class and professional. My recovery so far has been excellent, with very little bleeding, no stints in my nostrils, and only mild discomfort. I am thrilled to share my experience with everyone I can so no one has to tell another horror story about their deviated septum experience. Nancy L

Dr. Slaughter said I didn't need any surgery (which was a happy surprise, one of the top docs said I did) so I didn't get the impression that they were price gouging in any shape or form (as suggested by another reviewer). In fact, the amazing benefit was Dr. Slaughter takes my insurance, so although I came from out of state, this was all in-network for me, keeping my costs way down.

I've been with her for at least 10 years, perhaps longer. I'll drive to Cedar Park from SW Austin when necessary, because she knows her stuff. That's commitment. Yes, I've seen more than one ENT in this town, many of whom aren't interested in helping you with sinus problems if you won't or can't consent to a surgical procedure. Dr. Stierman recommended surgery as well at first visit due to anatomical variations, but when I explained my circumstance, she smiled and said, "That's okay, we'll just keep patching you up!" And true to her word, she has done precisely that through the years. To those who complain about the front desk, they've always gotten back to me. I think it's human nature when you're sick or in pain to expect to speak to your doctor immediately. A few times I have actually been put through to her medical assistant immediately. But, as with any modern medical situation, demand exceeds supply, and triage is necessary. After all, you don't know what's happening in the office at that moment. I can say that every single time I've gotten an annual renewal of her referral from my PCP, her office has called within minutes to make sure I can schedule if I need to. I don't know of another specialist's practice that's this proactive. To those who complain about her busy bedside manner, let's just say it doesn't take a half-hour of hemming and hawing if you're competent. When I've needed the time she's spent it, but when it's obvious what needs to be done, she hooks me up with needed medications and treatments and we both move on. Recently, I had a URI/LRI that lingered for several weeks, despite all the meds. I temporarily lost over 50% of my hearing. There were days I was certain that I needed to be hospitalized. Most of my misery was caused by my PCP's office who kept treating the lower respiratory symptoms instead of the root cause. In essence, it was a case of the PCP blaming the speed of the sump pump when all that was needed was to fix the broken pipe. She did that in two visits, only because the meds from the first visit weren't effective for my infection. She knew that because she did a culture--science over guesswork. And she followed up to confirm the situation was all clear and my hearing was back to age-related norms. I thanked her for saving my life. She replied with a simple, "That's what I do: Save the world one sinus at a time!" Recommended. Five stars. Zero doubts.

They charge exorbitant amounts just so the insurance company can tell them what the max amount allowed is so they can get the most they can. It's sad that we go to these people for help and they take advantage of us. I will never go back here. My issue wasn't even fixed. Going to a doctor that actually cares.
