Everything has a good side a bad side. I was very nervous…read moreabout having surgery on my deviated septum. I had waited 5 years after being diagnosed at Breathe America. After I had made the decision to go ahead with the surgery, I read reviews on my doctor and was very close to backing out of it all together. I won't go into details on who or what was said, but I did get the surgery and went in for my postop after surgery. I waited in the waiting room for a hour after my appointment was scheduled. I was so heated, and again also nervous for the huge piece of plastic that they were going to pull out of my nose. So that's the bad part. The nurse practitioner, Megan Bloom, made me feel at ease, she walked me through the process. She was amazing! She made me forget that I was upset about waiting and my nerves went away about the pain I was in from surgery. If you have the option to do your post op with Megan or the doctor, I would recommend her all the way.

They said "why are you here?"and after I explained they said, "we can't help you".

It is only today when I went to another allergy dr when I realized the dr at Aspire was substandard and not willing to help whatsoever. I had a terrible experience with this provider who in turn provided me nothing.

This afternoon, I saw Dr. Onyia for a consultation about surgery to correct a deviated septum…read more Originally, I was diagnosed with it by a different ENT who said that it was blocking 75 percent of my ability to breathe through my right nostril and that I should have surgery to correct it. At the time, I didn't want to go through the surgery for the usual reasons: 1) well, surgery and recovery, and 2) money. So I didn't and have lived with it. A few months ago, after having a sleep study for sleep apnea, my sleep PA noted that the deviated septum was most likely making my sleep apnea worse and that I should get surgery. So I set up a consultation with a new ENT, Dr. Onyia. He did a thorough investigation of the inside of my nose. He said that the deviated septum was minor and that I shouldn't get surgery to fix it. If ever there was a doctor you would want in your corner, it would be a doctor who won't insist on taking your money when you don't need a procedure. One negative about Dr. Onyia is that he is no nonsense. He doesn't have a warm bedside manner. He just wants to get you in and out as quickly as possible. Even so, I'm willing to overlook this because he is honest and not money grubbing.

Started me on a Paeleo diet to see if being off grains and dairy helped my symptoms. Given me literaratue to read about my concerns.

Performed several procedures in the office to unblock my sinuses medicated me property before and after procedure so I would not needlessly suffer. Gave me a painless Steroid blast in my blocked left ear, since my Humana would not authorize the procedure he wanted to do on my ear, which would have led to a more permanent solution. The sinus procedure in his office helped with that too fortunately. He listens, he cares and he has surrounded himself with nurturtiing and kind nurses who answered my constant questions and took my many phone calls. Can't say how much trust I have in Dr. Bart and his staff and how grateful that I am to them all. Highly recommend. This Dr. and Staff know their stuff and his experience is showing.

The ENT and Sinus Center ABQ billing methods are untimely, unprofessional and unethical. But not…read moreonly that; Dr. Bart is prejudiced (he told me my English was pretty good for a Mexican) and his ethics and those of his clinic's personnel are highly questionable. The receptionist is rude and condescending, and the people you need to talk to at the ENT and Sinus Ctr. are never available when you call them, if you're lucky enough to have someone taking your call when you call. See Dr. Bart giving himself 5 stars in Google reviews! That tells you everything you need to know about him. On June 11, 2016 I was seen by Dr. Bart at the ENT and Sinus Center ABQ. Sometime between December 16 and December 20, 2019, over 6 months later, I received a bill from them saying I owed them $171.42 with a threat of being sent to a collection agency if I didn't pay right away. Since I didn't receive any form of statement or bill from the ENT and Sinus Ctr., I had assumed that my insurance had paid for everything that had taken place during that visit on June 11, I was totally unaware of the balance, and amazed by how they threat their patients with being sent to collection knowing that not receiving payment sooner is their fault because they took 6 months to send their first bill (the ENT and Sinus Ctr. charges a $35 copay for each visit, regardless). I learned from my explanation of benefits sent by my insurance company that the ENT and Sinus Ctr. had filed a claim to my insurance company for $659.00, for a supposed nasal endoscopy procedure which NEVER took place during my visit on June 11. The insurance company only allowed $413.46, which they paid to the ENT and Sinus Ctr., and I am supposedly responsible for the balance, $171.42. When I called the ENT and Sinus Ctr. to straighten this up (when I was finally able to talk to the person who could "help" me, after about 5 or 6 calls in which I left voicemails because nobody took my call), I was yelled at and told that the nasal endoscopy had indeed taken place, that I didn't know what I was talking about, and that I should pay immediately or my account would be sent to collections. The nasal endoscopy procedure the ENT and Sinus Ctr. claims took place is defined as "CPT #31231, nasal endoscopy, is billed under the 'surgical unmbrella', because the procedure is invasive. An endoscope with it's rigid fiberoptic telescope allows the physician both increased visualization and magnification of internal anatomy. Topical vasoconstrictive agents are applied to the nasal mucosa and nerve blocks with local anesthesia. The endoscope is placed into the nose for a thorough inspection of internal nasal structures to be accomplished" - Dr. Bart NEVER did anything to put me under local anesthesia, and much less inserted a rigid fiberoptic telescope into my nose. This never took place during my visit of June 11. This unethical doctor knows exactly what he is doing in issuing a bill to patients once 6 months have passed since the procedure, in order to make sure that patients cannot fight any fraudulent charges because we only have up to 6 months to submit appeals or grievances, according to my insurance company's rules. This doctor can claim that he sent me bills before December 15 2018, but that is simply not true. This doctor is stealing money from my insurance and from me by claiming that he performed a procedure that never took place. Because Because this doctor did not issue a bill until December 15, 2018, exactly 6 months and 4 days after the nasal endoscopy was supposed to have taken place I regret greatly having come to this doctor to help me see what was wrong with my sinuses. Stay away from him and from the ENT and Sinus Center.
