His years of experience show through his professionalism and thoroughness. He is very detail oriented and wants to get everything as close to perfect as possible - internally and cosmetically (I loved that). For both pre and post opp appointments he always explained things in great detail so I could understand exactly what was happening. The assistant staff was great as well and always quickly addressed any concerns I had over the few months of recovery. This is a courteous and reliable staff. All in all, I have been to 4 ENT specialists so far and none come close to comparison with Dr. Fann. He really is top notch as both a doctor and surgeon. I couldn't be more happy with the results!

The urgent care physician advised me not to drive or fly home because the elevation change could burst my eardrum. I was worried about the time for my body to "heal itself" so I called and called to find someone reputable to help me. I read other reviews and decided to call the California Ear Institute. I am the most blessed person for finding Dr. Hester!!! He explained ALL of my options then explained what he would do if it were "him". Dr. Hester relieved my pain and allowed me to go home to my family. In a world so motivated by money ... it is wonderful to know there are physician's who love helping people and are skilled at their craft. BRAVO to Dr. Hester and his awesome staff!

I was referred to Dr Hester by my sleep doctor and my first consult with Hester was great. Answered all of my questions thoroughly and made it clear that he is not hard to reach if I went home and thought of any more questions. I did not leave my visit feeling more confused (which is what used to happen to me after ent visits). He does not work with insurance but you get what you pay for. You are getting quality care so to me it's 100 percent worth it. Angelica at his office is very sweet and responsive with her emails.

I saw Dr. Huang more than 5+ years ago when I was trying to diagnose a migraine issue. Ultimately,…read moreDr. Huang had checked any potential ENT concerns related to migraine causes and prescribed me some nasal sprays. Over time, luckily they went away. From the visit, I also learned about my deviated septum, which is why I had issues breathing from my nostril growing up and up until surgery! I saw Dr. Huang at the end of 2025 to get a consult for nasal surgery. He recommended a Septoplasty and Reduction of bilateral inferior turbinates. Dr. Huang's bedside manner is one of the best I've encountered in the Sutter network. He is patient and responds to each question with confidence. What sold me was his confidence in this "easier" procedure since I had worries of potential side effects or complications post surgery. Of course, each surgery and how a patient responds and recovers is different, but Dr. Huang reassured that I would likely receive benefits, and not any digressions with my current state. That was enough for me, since I would do anything to get it any % better. I got the septoplasty in early 2026. Operation day was smooth and staff was friendly throughout. Post op and follow up care was good. Recovery is a bit of a pain with the splints and nasal drainage daily, but after a few months now, it is great to be able to fully breathe through my nose! Wish I had done the procedure earlier. Sleep has been a lot better and I can now smell new colors c: Thank you Dr. Huang and the rest of the team!

I saw Dr. Huang on a referral from my primary care doctor for long-standing nasal and breathing…read moresymptoms. Before the exam was even done, he suggested most of my symptoms couldn't be explained medically and that I should simply stop paying attention to them. He said "I'm not saying it's in your head," but the message felt the same. Even so, he continued to imply that my symptoms might be imagined. He repeatedly pointed out that I had "seen so many doctors" and asked whether any of them had found anything, even though those earlier visits were years ago and for unrelated issues. At one point he kept asking "What do you want me to do?" in a way that felt confrontational rather than curious. Doctors should recognize that every specialty has its limits. The fact that a patient hasn't been diagnosed with anything within one doctor's area of expertise does not mean the patient has nothing wrong. A confrontational approach like this only makes patients doubt themselves (Am I really sick? Is it all in my head?) and may cause them to miss the treatment they actually need. His advice was that I should ignore these symptoms as much as possible and get back to normal life. But if a patient had no problems and felt completely fine, we wouldn't spend so much time, waiting, and money to see a specialist. Everything we do is to improve our quality of life and feel a little better. My primary care doctor had listed several specific possibilities to evaluate, and they weren't addressed. In the end, he briefly told me I have rhinitis, and said that most of the symptoms I described were purely subjective and that he couldn't explain them. He gave me medication but no education about rhinitis itself. This was the first time I learned I had rhinitis and it was completely new to me, yet he was unwilling to explain much. I wonder whether he treats all patients with milder conditions this way. If we have a condition that the textbook says isn't serious, does that mean we don't deserve to be taken seriously or have it discussed with us? He didn't seem to understand the major impact rhinitis has had on my exercise and sleep. A doctor should have at least basic empathy in order to truly understand a patient's situation. To be fair, the exam itself was done carefully and he prescribed a nasal spray. But I left feeling unheard and judged rather than helped. Patients with symptoms that are hard to pin down deserve curiosity and respect, not skepticism from the start. In the exam room, the patient is already the more vulnerable one. A doctor may have seen patients with the same symptoms thousands of times, but the patient may know nothing about their condition. By the last half of the visit, all I wanted was to get out of there as fast as I could. This was truly the worst and most disappointing medical experience I have ever had. I would not return and would look for a different ENT.

They are a great team to have on your side during a cancer journey. Dr. Connie also helped me in 2003 with my severe pollen allergies (I was allergic to all flowers, grasses and trees). In short, after 7 years of allergy shots, daily prescription pill and steroid nasal spray, the manufacturer of the pill discontinued it. I tried a few other Rx pills that caused insomnia, headaches and acne. A friend suggested I try Dr. Connie. She gave me a couple of supplements and informed me of a diet change, basically low glycemic. Amazingly, as a result, I have been cured since of my year round pollen allergies. The bonus was my exercise induced asthma also disappeared. A few years into the diet change, I tried high intensity exercise without using my inhaler. I have not used an inhaler since then. I will continue using Dr. Connie as my primary doctor. I will continue with maintenance IV vitamin C therapy with Dr. Marcel to keep cancer from returning.
