I visited ENT Associates due to a loss of smell and taste. After spending over $1,300 out of…read morepocket, I left without a clear diagnosis. They suggested expensive options like $350 allergy shots and a CT scan, along with various other costly tests. Moreover, they required a follow-up visit, costing nearly $100 additionally, just to discuss the results in person, as they do not provide results over the phone. The results were normal. This visit could have easily been handled with a phone call.

I'm so sad to have to update this review but I can honestly say my hope is that others will start…read moreclear of this doctor so you don't have the horrible experience we ended up having. After we took our girl in the first time, Donnelly said she had polyps and would need her tonsils out in a separate surgery. I was so impressed with him and his office staff that my daughter and husband made appts with him as well, and my husband went as far as to schedule a surgery. Anyway, at the first appt, my daughter asked if he could fix her hose which had been broken by a soccer ball a few years earlier. He said he would. He said she did NOT have a deviated septum. Just a clearly broken nose from the past. We immediately scheduled the surgery as we wanted her healed up for summer time. 2 days before her surgery (and after I had to go pay a huge upfront amount the the hospital) Donnelys office called and said they'd need to reschedule surgery because of a family issue. We thought this VERY bad form, and had already forked out the money to the hospital. My husband told them we were not ok with waiting another month, and they called back and asked us to go in 2 days earlier than scheduled- which was fine. We adjusted our work schedules again. Monday morning came and the doctor was an HOUR LATE. An HOUR! The nurses at Bravera were clearly disgusted and annoyed with him. When he did show up he seemed rushed, and the original anesthesiologist who had come to prep her was replaced as she had other surgeries now to be in. (Which was a bummer- the original one was VERY sweet to my nervous girl) I should note here, that my husband called the office 2 times to verify that her crooked nose WOULD be straightened and both time was told yes, that was in the surgery notes. Well, when my girl got out of surgery and came to she asked for a mirror and was shocked to find she still had a very crooked nose. The doctor also did not discharge her with ANY MEDS, nor ANY medication instructions (like for Tylenol ect.) Again, the nurses in post OP were very clearly irritated with him and told me to call their office before leaving. I called and left a message. It was 9am. By noon, I still had heard nothing back. I called again. Then my husband called twice. At 3pm I called a different number (he's part of a whole group of ENT's with offices everywhere) and finally they got someone at his office to return my call. Keep in mind, my kid had no meds that entire time. We also had changed her bandages and noticed there were no splints inside or outside her nose. (Clearly as her nose was still very visibly crooked.) After several phone calls with a nurse to get her meds prescribed to her, we finally went and picked them up. At 5pm! Are you kidding me? Totally unacceptable. At each follow up appt (we have had 4) they have charged us our co-pay as well as a "procedure fee" of $250 because he sticks a thing up her nose to look around. We received her bill the other day and it was laughable. $80,000 we were charged. Are you joking me? His excuse for her nose still being crooked was "oh, I meant I was fixing the inside of her nose, not the bone" which is total baloney, and even his nurse remembered our first appt where he told my girl he could do both the polyps and the bone straightening. This doctor made excuses all the way through this terrible experience. We would have saved her surgery for someone who could do BOTH PROCEDURES, because this was a huge waste of money for us. My husband ended up canceling his surgery (which was scheduled 2 weeks after my daughters) I recommend staying FAR AWAY from this doctor and the entire network that he is a part of. Please go to Advent Healthcare instead. That's were we are taking the rest of our family. If I could give 0 star, I would.

Cancelled THREE times on me! Twice due to the doctor having surgery (obviously his staff is so…read moreincompetent that they can't keep his surgery times separate from his appointment times). Horrible staff, horrible service. They refused to see me because I was understandably upset and frustrated and all they care about is money and paperwork. Not the patient. I had a referral in my hand but that wasn't good enough. Wouldn't let me pay out of pocket either because that's "fraud." Had to go to a Minute Clinic because the next available appointment was a month out and that was too long. The nurse there was surprised the doctor told his secretary to have me leave (for "making a scene") because a nurse could have helped me if the doctors were busy. I know that if I was a doctor and I had a patient in distress and the tools to help them, I would want to help them.

I had Covid June 2020, My GP cleared me in July, I have been fine ever since except my throat…read morehurts due to all the coughing I did in June, I tried to get an appointment with Ear Nose and Throat Associates. The lady who answered asked me if I had Covid. I told her in June. She asked, Have you been tested negative" I said yes by my G.P. She said since I have soreness in my throat I may still have Covid. She asked how many times have I been tested negative and has it been recently. I hung up This scheduling lady is not a doctor and she diagnosed that I had Covid, Since these doctors are all together I can not find an ENT Specialist who will see me I had Covid (like a hurricane) and it is over and I am trying to find out the damage it did to my throat just like we do when a hurricane hits and leaves. I wish I knew what medical board to report this to.
