Can't believe I've never written a review for Dr. Monhian.
Lets go back... to 5 years ago, when I first started experiencing dizziness for weeks and weeks that was only getting worse by the day.
To make matters worse, my right ear was throbbing, and I went to my regular doctor, who said,
"It's all in your head. Nothing is wrong with you."
Okay, so after that prognosis, I'm thinking I'm going crazy. Two weeks later, with the family breaking bread around the Thanksgiving Dinner table, I end up collapsing. (And, no I didn't even get to eat anything- nice timing on my part).
Rushed to LIJ and I'm screaming in pain, my ear felt like someone had sawed if off and spilled acid down what was left of my ear canal. The ER doctor looks at my ear and says,
"Shes fine, put drops in it."
Okay, so now my entire family thinks im being my typical drama queen self. Yet they still prescribed me pain killers. The following morning, I can't even walk straight, the pain was that unbearable. My mom Googles ENT's, and Monhian was the first to come up in the search. By the time I got to the his office, I almost collapsed. He reacted so fast, he took one look in my ear and saw a huge infected bubble blocking my ear drum. The infection was so bad, he told me I was probably going to lose 50% of my hearing in my right ear.
I was terrified!!!
TWO doctors missed this??!!! Where the hell are the people getting their degrees? He told me he would do everything in his power to prevent that. This dude prescribed the right meds from the start. He would spend so much time looking at the X-rays, trying to figure out the best way to go about killing the infection. He was so positive, he always made me feel like I was going to be okay. After 4 months of pills, draining etc. Ladies and gents I have perfect hearing in both my ears and I owe everything to this man. I've been back to his office a few times since that whole ordeal, and no matter what I've ever gone to him for he has always helped me.
His wife is also a cosmetologist and she's amazing. I believe she still works out of his office a couple of times a week. You can call the office to make an appointment.
Thank you Dr. Monhian! read more
