    It's 2026 and it has been decades since I was able to breathe freely in the Spring!…read more I can't say enough good things about Chicago Nasal and Sinus Center. From the very first visit, the entire staff has been consistently professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. I've been under their care since January 2025, and the improvement in both my symptoms and overall quality of life has been incredible. The front office and clinical staff run a smooth, organized practice, and you're always treated with respect and genuine care. Appointments are efficient without ever feeling rushed, and it's clear that patient comfort and outcomes truly matter here. A very special thank‑you to Amy Brussee, PA‑C, who has been overseeing my care. Amy is thorough, knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. She listens, answers questions thoughtfully, and makes each visit feel personalized rather than transactional. I always leave confident that I'm in excellent hands. I also want to recognize Melanie, the nurse who administers my allergy shots. She is consistently kind, calm, and professional, and makes what could easily be an uncomfortable process incredibly easy and stress‑free. THANKS, MEL!! If you're looking for an allergist or sinus specialist in Chicago who combines clinical expertise with genuine compassion, I highly recommend Chicago Nasal and Sinus Center. They set the bar for what patient‑centered care should look and feel like.

He educated me about the sinuses and where my pain and discomfort were coming from and offered solutions. I was using a product that was not working well for me so that was good to know as well. He made clear that he's available to me for further follow up consultation/discussion if I want to call him. His office was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and knew their stuff. Although I didn't use it, they have parking validation stickers for a lot a couple of blocks away. I will recommend him to anyone who needs an ENT, without reservation.

    I became of patient of Chicago ENT due to frequent nosebleeds. It was recommended that I go to…read moreChicago ENT for a procedure to handle this issue. I originally had a different time and date for an appointment but had to cancel last minute due to a ridiculous amount of travel delays - I called and explained my situation and the office was very understanding and kind, which made all the difference to me! My appointment was very quick. Dr. Levy was helpful and gave me an overview of what would happen and advice on after care. I was finished and walking out of the appointment within 15 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised with how easily this procedure was done!

    The worst experience I have ever had with a medical office. Their office's patient management is…read moreabsolutely infuriating, and the treatment feels like they are pressuring you into quick fixes, not providing informed care. I did a sleep study here and was diagnosed with sleep apnea by Dr. Friedman in 2023, after which I received an oral appliance from their in-office orthodontist. I stopped treatment with them for the first time because The Chicago Sleep Center, which is under their umbrella, was supposed to do a follow-up study and completely bungled my scheduling: they did not respond to my calls requesting an appointment confirmation, but their automated system texted me to bring three items for my sleep study. When I arrived, the nurse asked if I provided a fourth item that they did not list, which was a small plastic piece for the oral appliance that they easily could have had in the office. My whole appointment was cancelled, and the nurse on duty reacted like this happens often. When the office called to reschedule, they blamed me for not bringing the plastic pieces, and I was so frustrated I stopped care entirely. Two years later, I hoped to restart treatment and asked if I could get a sleep study done somewhere else and submit the results to Dr. Friedman. They told me to come in and said I could do another at-home study instead, after which I would have a telehealth follow-up to discuss the results. The telehealth follow-up was a repeat of the terrible communication at the sleep center. I had to call the day before to ask how the appointment would work, and I was told I would receive a phone call at the appointment time. An hour before the appointment time, I got a text telling me Dr. Friedman was "in my waiting room" with a link that didn't work and a voicemail telling me to call the office to "take care of my appointment." I couldn't even get in touch with the office because it was before their opening time at 8:30, so I just had to wait, fuming because I thought I had missed my appointment entirely. The next two hours was a back and forth about how my appointment would happen: they sent another link that didn't work, then said they would call, then eventually asked if they could FaceTime, which I'm sure is some sort of HIPAA violation. When I told the staff member who had left me a voicemail that I couldn't call him back because it was before office hours, he just said, "Oh right, I forgot about that :)" I couldn't help but just stare at him in disbelief over FaceTime. I could barely hear Dr. Friedman over the video call, and he told me my most recent sleep study did not show I had sleep apnea (???) and that he was recommending two "quick, easy" outpatient operations to address...something? I didn't know what the root cause was, and the visit summary notes were convoluted and listed multiple issues that he didn't mention over the call. I cancelled the appointment two days before because I really felt like I was being pressured into it. I was not notified of potential side effects, why I was having an operation, or even what operation specifically I was having, and when I called the office to ask the name of the operation, the receptionist couldn't tell me and seemed annoyed that she would have to put me through to the medical staff. I will be happily going somewhere else.

    I'm a believer! After struggling with sinus issues for years, I was referred to Dr. Siegel at…read moreMidwest ENT by my internist. After a thorough examination, a round of medication and another exam, Dr. Siegel recommended surgery. I totally concurred. Supported by a wonderful surgical team at Northwestern, Dr. Siegel performed a number of "-tomys" and "-plastys." As a layperson, I told friends and family that my sinuses had been "roto-rootered." In the months since surgery, I've had several follow-up visits with Dr. Siegel. The staff at Midwest ENT is terrific; clearly, they're a reflection of how Dr. Siegel practices medicine. I'm no longer a mouth-breather, my sleep has improved dramatically, and my wife swears my snoring has stopped. Thank you, Dr. Siegel! Ps. With respect to criticisms about wait times, get over it. Quality medical care requires time and attention to detail. I'm enormously grateful to be on the receiving end of it!

I have total confidence in him, If he says that I'm okay, then I know that I'm okay. If he says that I need a procedure, then I'm positive that I need it and that he'll do it right. You're never rushed. If you have 20 questions, he patiently answers all 20 until you're satisfied. You will leave his office glad that you saw him, and know that if you ever need care again, he's your doctor.

    If you want to feel like your doctor listens and cares, find someone else. My first appointment…read morewith Dr Levy lasted about a minute. Pretty sure he never made eye contact. Slid the scope down my nose with no warning, no preparation. "Everything looks fine." Leaves the room. Went back to my promary care physician, because I was still suffering, told her about my bad experience. Was sent back to Chicago ENT, saw Kathleen Masala. While her bedside manner was rough, she at least sounded like she cared. Scheduled me for an MRI. Returned to Chicago ENT to go over MRI results. I was 15 minutes late due to an accident on LSD and their own parking garage malfunction. I was told I would need to reschedule 2 weeks later. Seriously??? If I cancelled every doc appointment where the doc was 15 minutes late, I think I would hae lived 69 years having never seen a doctor. Ridiculous.

    DO NOT GO TO ANY CHICAGO ENT LOCATIONS…read more Quite possibly the worst medical professional office I have ever been to. I scheduled an appointment over the phone with a real person at the beginning of October for the end of November. I got a text a couple days before the appointment to confirm and I did. Not even 2 minutes later, I received a phone call from scheduling saying that they scheduled me with the wrong people and now have to change it. Okay, one mess up is not a big deal. Rescheduled to the end of December. I go in for my appointment at the end of December. I go in, talk about what's going on, I talk about allergies and hearing loss. The nurse then looks at me, panicked. "You had a hearing test for today? That doctor's not here today." So we continue with the allergy stuff. I then schedule a follow up at the front desk and RE-RESCHEDULE my hearing test for a THIRD TIME. I write down all the dates and times in my calendar and verbally double check with the front desk. She prints me an appointment reminder WITH 2 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TIMES THAN WHAT SHE TOLD ME. I go back in and show her and all she says is "yeah, that's correct". At this point, I've had it, I just walked out. Whatever. The next day I get a voicemail from the hearing doctor saying she was sorry that no one told me she wasn't going to be there. I called and left a voicemail with the administrative office manager asking her to call me back as there are some serious issues. I do not receive a call back from her AND STILL HAVEN'T 3 WEEKS LATER. Someone named Lincoln Harrison calls me, says he's the assistant administrative manager. He tells me these things should not happen again, he offered me a co-pay refund, and assured me that this would not happen again... OH MY GOD IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I go to the follow up appointment this past Monday. Have the hearing test, see the doctor about my allergies. Cool, good appointment. I go the front desk and schedule an allergy test and another allergy follow up in 4 weeks. Today (Tuesday), I get 3 separate phone calls from scheduling saying they're calling to reschedule my next appointment... I'm at work, so I can't answer these calls. I call Lincoln Harrison back and leave ANOTHER MESSAGE telling him about these issues and asking him for a follow up call that HE PROMISED TO GIVE ME OVER 3 WEEKS AGO. I get home and call scheduling back to see what the issue is. I speak to a woman named Jocelyn. She tells me that someone put in my notes that I called to change my appointment...NO I DID NOT. I then start asking her questions like "who is saying I want a different appointment, why is this a continuous problem, etc". I am not yelling, I am not cursing. I am frustrated, no one is giving me answers. She then tells me that I am being inappropriate and hangs up the phone. I have truly had it with this place. I will have my next 2 appointments and then I am OUT OF HERE. I will be filing a complaint with the Illinois Department of Public Health with dates, times, and voice mail and email evidence. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR HEALTH.

Though the Pazio institute is in Chicago I've never had a problem getting the care I need from so far away. I began care because of a history of slight energy problems, memory issues, a history of many concussions (likely linked with the aforementioned) and a desire to optimize my health. That being said I am and was a very active healthy person with a diet that was super dialed in. I'm also a doctor in a health field so I have a good background to work from. I felt very comfortable choosing Dr. Alex for this reason. There are so many things That have impressed me about The Pazio Institute including: the diverse and expansive background Dr. Alex has in all realms of health, the wholistic foundation of the office, the helpful/knowledgeable staff, and Dr. Alex's warm personality and sincere interest in helping his clients. He truly is an incredible human being and doctor! The results of my health optimization journey so far have included: chelating out heavy metals (we discovered I had high levels of lead), I've optimized my supplements to make sure I'm getting all the nutrients I need and not storing problematic things I don't need (We discovered a couple of mild/common genetic anomalies that can be easily managed if monitored), and I did a mental acuity test to see if all area of my brain are functioning properly after having several concussions in my life. All of the care has resulted in me having more energy, better memory, and I don't have to worry about a high chance of getting Alzheimer's now.
