She was beyond patient with me, and kept me calm before and after the operation, knowing that while I wanted the surgery more than anything, I still had my fears and doubts. She's incredible at what she does, and I'm so grateful she was on my team. Thank you so much Dr. Liu and Lisa, for your extraordinary care, and for giving me my life (and my nose) back!

Sure is it a little smaller than before? Yeah. Can I breathe better? Sure, which I'm ecstatic about. The thing I'm upset about is the over all appearance of my nose. I feel like he over, promised and undelivered in that department. Which really bums me out, as I think Dr Liu is great at his craft but perhaps the aesthetic part isn't his forte. He now wants me to see another surgeon who doesn't have the greatest reviews to see if she would do my revision. I might even just wait to do it in Brasil where there is a surgeon I know and trust. I really am very disappointed that he didn't wanna make this right and I'm not sure if it was his lack of confidence or he just didn't want do it, either way it's a me problem. My feelings are hurt and I feel totally put off by it. One of the things he mentioned to me is that he doesn't do Instagram noses and I didn't ask for an Instagram nose. I asked for a smaller elegant nose to match my face. unfortunately I am Eastern European so we tend to have very strong features in the nose department and all I wanted was something a little bit smaller and now basically it's the same.

WARNING: Novel ahead! Because I feel like writing today…read more I would give this doctor 1 star, but I'm giving 2 stars because his office staff was wonderful and I hate to take away from them. They were very friendly, helped me with my kids in the waiting room, and were quick to get my paperwork processed. He also correctly diagnosed my son, so I need to acknowledge that, even though it was a pretty basic case, based on what he said. I made an appointment with Dr. Reisman, even though I wanted to see Dr. Jacobs originally, based on his 5 star Yelp reviews. Since Yelp isn't the end all be all (and I know plenty of people who are awesome with less than 5 stars) I decided I'd see Dr. Reisman instead because I needed to get my son in ASAP. Unfortunately, once I met him, it became clear why he was available in such short notice. Now, I understand that sometimes people have a rough day, so even though he was completely condescending and rude to me when we came in, I decided to let it go. He correctly diagnosed my son and for that I'm grateful; however, I left there thinking "I'm never paying my hard earned cash to see that person again," forgetting the fact I would need to speak to him in the near future about my son's test results. I quickly got over the frustration of this appointment because obviously, not a big deal in the long run; however, when he called me 5 days later to tell me the results of my son's test, I was quickly transported to the moment I met him. To make a short story long, he called my home phone first and not my cell that was also listed, which is totally fine. We never get real calls on our home phone line and (just for kicks since it's been a bit of a rough day) for the first time ever my husband decides to pick up the phone and say, "Dominos Pizza!" A time old prank tradition that dates back to when the telephone was invented, I'm sure. Instead of laughing about it and just moving on, he was his usual self! The doctor said, "Really?" My husband replied, "No it's not." The doctor asked, "May I speak to Mrs. Roblee?" My husband asked, "May I ask who is calling?" He raised his voice saying, "A doctor!" At this point my husband gingerly handed me the phone, realizing he had made a mistake of epic proportion and when I said hello, the person on the line angrily inquired, "Who was THAT?" Remember, I still have no idea who this was so I wasn't sure who was even asking. I told him it was my husband. He said, "Well, I'm glad THAT is over...this is Dr. Reisman," in his seriously offended voice, and was obviously really annoyed. Oh yes! I know that voice! Now, I can understand that if someone is having a bad day, this might not be a fun moment for them, especially after a long day of doctoring, even for the most lax person. I sincerely apologized and said how sorry I am and that we never get real calls on this phone. He raised his voice and said, "YOU LISTED THIS AS YOUR NUMBER." I was so taken aback at how angry he seemed, but not surprised since I saw how poor his bedside manner was at the last appointment. I simply said, "As I said, I apologize for the mistake." He then stated the rest of the information and I just let him speak until he was done. (In our appointment he would condescendingly say "let me finish" when I was about to ask him a question at a time in the conversation when it would seem a question should be allowed). I simply said thank you and goodbye. I hesitated writing all of this out because I generally do NOT care enough about stuff like this. And who has time for this? Well I'm making time. I'm totally willing to let stuff slide because let's face it, we're all human; however, the interactions with him were so bad that I felt it necessary to share. There are too many kind and caring doctors to even give this guy a try. Also, to be honest, it feels good to get this down in writing. This has been such an unpleasant experience I felt it necessary to take the time to be detailed. When I pay for a service (cash, no less!) he is providing, I expect to get treated like an adult, not a child who needs reprimanding and reproach. Anyway, if you see this guy, make sure to not EVER make a joke or expect a normal response. Do not even think about interjecting or asking a question when he isn't ready for it. Just go in, state the problem, don't speak before spoken to and for God's sake do NOT answer the phone "Dominos Pizza!" when he calls......actually you know what? Maybe do... -Written by someone who literally gets along with most people. Just not this guy.

There's a reason this place sits at 2.9 stars (at the time of this review) -- and it's well…read moredeserved. I had nasal surgery here in August. In October, I saw a different ENT at the same practice who flat-out told me the first surgery did absolutely nothing. His exact issue? He had no idea what the first ENT even did, because he now needs to go in and perform procedures that the first ENT claimed she already did. Let that sink in. I'm now being told I need a second surgery because the first one was essentially a waste of time, money, and recovery. And that's just the beginning. I have now been waiting THREE MONTHS (and counting) just to be scheduled for this second surgery. After a month of silence, I called -- they said I'd be contacted within a week. I waited four more weeks. Nothing. Called again, left a message, never got a call back. After another three weeks, I was told they only have one person who schedules surgeries and she's "busy." That is not my problem. It should NOT take three months just to schedule a surgery -- especially one required because your first surgery failed. Appointments are just as bad. At my last visit, the waiting room was packed when I arrived. They checked me in and had me sit down. Every patient who checked in after me was told the ENT wasn't even there because he was performing surgery elsewhere and "should" show up soon. I wasn't told that. After watching several people get warned while I sat there clueless, I went to the front desk and asked if I was waiting for the same ENT. The receptionist said yes. When I asked why no one told me he wasn't there, her response was: "Oh, I forgot." Probably because she was too busy gossiping with the other person at the front desk. I had driven over an hour to get there. If I had known the doctor wasn't even on site, I would've canceled -- either before leaving home or immediately upon arrival. People in that waiting room had already been waiting over TWO HOURS. There were about 10 of us all waiting for the same doctor who wasn't even present. I complained, and only then was I pushed to the front when the doctor did show up an hour later. If I hadn't said anything, I would've been waiting 4-5 hours. That is beyond unacceptable. It's disrespectful, disorganized, and borderline negligent. Between the failed initial surgery, the months-long delay just to schedule corrective surgery, the lack of basic communication, the extreme wait times, and the financial impact to me personally, this practice has shown a consistent disregard for patients' time, trust, and well-being. If you value competent care, transparency, and respect for your time, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

She said they never received my referral, and that I couldn't bring in my referral from the mail and that it needed to be from my doctor. So I asked my doctor and they said that that was not true. So I gave pacific medical group a few days, maybe they needed some extra time for that referral to show up in there system. I called back 3-4 days later and the same girl answered, cut me off while talking and told me they don't take my insurance. I have never had an issue with a referral or setting up an appointment. Now it sounds like to me, that this receptionist is unqualified to do the job. She was rude, not helpful at all and that's unfortunate that Pacific ENT Medical Group would have someone like this to represent them, as I haven't even been seen by any of the doctors, but from this interaction with someone who represents the business, I'll be sure not to recommend this office.
