Dr. Babajanian was recommended to me, as the best in his field, by a number of well known…read morephysicians when, a few years ago, my husband, who was ill at the time, had a severe problem with his ears. He was so kind and comforting and extremely proficient in determining what the cause was and what treatment was needed. Recently, I had a very unique, hereditary type of ear infection that most doctors would not have seen nor treated before. Dr. Babajanian recognized the problem immediately and started treatment, then took me into emergency surgery within less than a day's notice. I am so grateful for his vast knowledge in this field of medicine, his compassion and consideration for the pain I was in, and the ease of communication he has with his patients. Thank you, Dr. Babajanian. I will always highly recommend you! P.S. You also have a very kind and friendly staff.

The guy is a superhero. This was my second surgery with the Dr. This one more complex with certain risks. My family was concerned. Get a second option they said. My response, why would I want another opinion when I already have Dr. Babaganian. For the second time my surgury worked out perfectly. Perfectly. My family can't understand how I could have major surgery without suffering. To tell you the truth, I am a little confused myself. But its true. Thank you Dr, I appreciate you so much.

Solution is vegetables but for urgent repair work is well washed raw vegetables smoothie. A friend who had it for 4 years and under my advice stopped in two days. After one week of peace a bite of turtle chocolate triggered it immediately. After 10 years and dietary changes and B-12 shots tinnitus finally stopped for her. We were looking at ice cream, and she was looking at the flavor she will choose, and her ear started to ring. A doctor told me about 45 years ago that the eyes tell the system what is about to come in. I became a believer when I witnessed the effects. I changed my diet 9 years ago and my health did a fantastic recovery. I take Liver Supplements and eat a lot of veggies with small amounts of meats. I can stop symptoms now, produced by the liver as a language, within less than 1/2 hour. I noticed like tinnitus and eye floaters are sugar related. The liver loves vegetables especially raw vegetables. I hope I provided a direction of treating most disorders including tinnitus. Jak Bicaci, Architect Jak.Bicaci@gmail.com

1000% recommend! My son needed ear tubes and our UCLA network gave us an appointment 4 months out…read morefor just the consultation. I found Dr. Rothholtz online and ran it by our pediatrician who said her bio looked stellar. Dr. Rothholtz was the best thing to have happened in our journey for ear tubes. She's patient, welcoming and doesn't rush you through the appointment. Since my son was only 21 months and her surgery schedule was PACKED, she told me she'd check with a colleague who may be able to help out. And she'd check with her scheduler if she could tack us onto the tail end of another surgery she had scheduled for that following month. I was still driving home when I got a call directly from her telling me she'd already checked with her colleague and was calling to ask if she could pass along my info to her colleague's office. I said absolutely yes!! The next day I booked an appt for the following week. And the rest is history. I was so impressed with Dr. Rothholtz's genuine character, proactive approach, and knowledge. She really cares for her patients and I can't recommend her enough.

Is an EAR SPECIALIST, the sorry excuse of a receptionist front office personnel gave me numbers that do not work. Said she didnt have an ENT on her list, then miraculously found an updated list when i said i would like the drs. email, of course the number DID NOT work. I understand this is a HARD PROFESSION...everyone is leaving California. But it is unacceptable, no matter where you are when you are dealing with the live of another. Please adjust your attitude and realize ONE DAY THIS COULD BE YOU,as miserable as you seem to be right now... May i respectfully say, it wont get much better if you dont do your job. You help yourself when you help others.

Written from a perspective of an audiophile:…read more There are very few opportunities to hear top-of-the-line IEMs side-by-side and even fewer opportunities to do the test blindfolded. Even at CanJam it's not really possible. When I heard about this being possible from Steve the Audiophiliac on YouTube via Dr. Julie Glick's - Musicans Hearing Solutions office, I booked an appointment immediately. Drove down from the Bay Area for this opportunity. First she checked my ears to see if they needed to be cleaned but my ears were already clean. Then onto the demo. I got to try many of the IEMs maybe 12 different ones (not sure), when I went. Ultimate Ears, Jerry Harvey Audio, and 64 Audio were available, and we did the blind tests. I did not feel rushed, and spent at least 2 minutes or longer with each IEM which is all I needed. My personal top 5 picks were, in this order: 64 A18t 64 A18s 64 A12t JH Jimi JH Layla 64 Audio A18t sounded very good, but then we put the m15 apex module in and I was sold. All 5 of them were excellent but I drifted more into 64 Audio's direction. Although JH had stronger bass. I ended up purchasing A18t custom IEMs via Dr, Julie Glick and was able to customize my pair, and even get a discount, and a free hearing test. Was surprised that my hearing came back normal since I've been to over 500 concerts and am constantly wearing headphones, etc. but grateful that I still have my hearing and also that Dr. Julie Glick's shop even exists. Not only am I happy with this opportunity, but it was worth the trip from the Bay Area (6 hour drive).

Dr. Glick is a fantastic audiologist and really cares about her patients.

This "magician" operated on not only myself, but my son, niece, and two friends. When he moved from California to Kingman, Arizona, I felt as though I'd lost an arm. He was our go-to guy for all ENT issues. I NEED him now, and am trying to find an e-mail address to contact him. My husband and I own a place on the Parker Strip and would gladly travel to Kingman to see him. HE is the BEST there is !

Instead of sucking it out, he put a long cylindrical instrument into both ears and jabbed it up and down. Both ears were then clogged. By Friday there was pain in my left ear that radiated up to my eye and down to my jaw, and I had a low grade fever. I called Dr. Ramirez's office, but they said he couldn't see me for 1 1/2 months. I told them I was in pain and sent the doctor a detailed e-mail. Eight days later he emailed me back: "I appreciate your communication. Based upon your history of Meniere's disease I ordered a new hearing test to determine if there are any changes to your symptoms." I told him to cancel any appointment he'd made and that I've had Meniere's in my left ear for 29 years; and it does not cause pain. Based on Dr. Ramirez's response and the fear that he might do further damage, I saw another doctor, who prescribed Prednisone for the ear and Azithromycin for the infection that the water draining caused. After a while the pain and the pressure lessened. My hearing in the left ear was a little better but the right ear had no change at all. I had CT scan for the doctor to have a better idea of what was going on. Her conclusion was that I would have the pain and pressure for the rest of my life. Although, in time, it would lessen in frequency and severity. As for the hearing loss, caused by the nerve damage, that is permanent. It is your choice if you want to see Dr. Ramirez. I will not be seeing him.

I would constantly be sneezing out globs of yellow or green phlegm which was always embarrassing at work! Finally my PCP suggested I see an ENT. I had to wait a month to see Dr. Balaker which was a bit of a bummer but thankfully she was worth the wait! She saw me immediately at my appointed time and she had a caring demeanor. She did an in-office nasal endoscopy which wasn't painful or uncomfortable at all and immediately diagnosed me with chronic severe sinusitis (sinus infection that hadn't been treated or resolved for months). She's very knowledgeable and professional! She prescribed two weeks of doxycycline antibiotics to ensure it cleared out the stubborn infection and said to follow up if my symptoms don't clear up. I didn't realize how much pressure was in my face until I took the first day of antibiotics-I felt immediately better! It cleared up by week 2 and never had to go back. Overall, it was a solid, smooth experience. Thank you Dr. Balaker!

At my follow-up appointment on 10/24/25, I expressed that my symptoms had not improved. Dr. Balaker performed a brief nasal scope exam that lasted less than a minute and stated that everything "looked fine." When I asked for a CT scan to further evaluate why my symptoms persist, I was told it was not necessary. I left feeling dismissed and unheard. Throughout my visits, I felt rushed and uncomfortable asking questions. During my last appointment, her bedside manner was particularly concerning -- she was not personable, appeared impatient, and at times rolled her eyes when I asked questions. As a patient who underwent surgery, I expected thoughtful follow-up and a willingness to investigate ongoing symptoms. After surgery, no one from the office contacted me to check on my recovery or schedule follow-up care. I had to call the office myself to arrange a post-operative appointment. Additionally, prior cultures had shown heavy growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and I did not feel there was adequate follow-through regarding this finding. Finally, at my follow-up visit I was told there would be no copay. Four months later, I received a bill, which was surprising and frustrating. Surgery is a serious decision. Patients deserve careful follow-up, transparency, and to feel heard when they report persistent symptoms. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I will not be returning to this provider.
