Monty V. Trimble, MD
I have had years of struggling with allergies and chronic sinus problems, and have seen many different ENTs. Without going into the weeds, I have undergone extensive sinus surgery. I eventually left my previous ENT and found Dr. Monty Trimble through a friend's recommendation, and the difference has been remarkable. Dr. Trimble has an extraordinary understanding of the anatomy and function of the nose and sinuses, but what sets him apart is that he actually teaches his patients. For the first time, I understand not only what has been done to my sinuses, but how the structures of the nose are supposed to regulate airflow, provide moisture, and protect the sinuses--and what can happen when those structures are significantly altered. I only wish I had been given this kind of understandable explanation before undergoing previous procedures, including a meaningful discussion of how changes to my anatomy could affect me long-term. Dr. Trimble explains what he sees, why I experience the symptoms I do, what can and cannot be corrected, and what I can realistically expect going forward. After so many years and so many ENTs, finding a physician with this combination of knowledge, candor, and communication skills has been invaluable to me. I only wish my previous ENTs had been as knowledgeable. I also give high scores, and a big thank you to Courtney Leslie, P.A. and the entire staff. read more
