I had endoscopic sinus surgery performed by Dr. Spilman, it went perfectly and recovery was a snap - he is an amazing surgeon. In the past I've had allergy treatment / shots and the allergy office is top notch - great staff and never had a problem getting a shot quickly. Dr. Teng is newer to the Santa Cruz ENT practice, but the few times I've met with him have been pleasant and helpful - plus my wife underwent surgery with him and it exceeded her expectations, both the result, and the recovery. The surgeons here are the best of the best. They will give you direct feedback on what you need, with no frills. If you want a Doctor to tell you what you want to hear, or prescribe you something you think you need, this probably isn't the place for you. However, if you want excellent care, and results that improve your quality of life, I would recommend them without hesitation.

We've been going to SC EN&T Medical Group at 550 Water St. in Santa Cruz for several years for our…read moremother who will be 100 years old in just a few months. On April 14th I called because the tip of the hearing aid got stuck in my mother's ear. It usually takes 5-10 minutes for them to remove the piece. The hearing aid also needed a minor repair which also normally takes just 5-10 minutes. I called at 9:15 and left a message explaining the issue, but didn't receive a call back. I called again at 10:30 and the receptionist told me she would call us back. By 1:00 we hadn't heard from them so I had to take my mother to Sutter Urgent Care which took two hours. By the end of the day, we still had not heard from SC EN&T Medical Group. The next day, I took the hearing aid into the Water St. location for the repair. While I was trying to explain what needed to be done to one person, the receptionist who I talked to on the phone the previous day interrupted and claimed she tried to call us back. Well, we all know our cell phones provide a list of incoming and outgoing calls and none of the three phone numbers (mine, my sister's, or my mother's) shows a call from SC EN&T and no message was left. This review gets two stars only because the woman who helped me when I dropped off the hearing aid for repair (I think "Molly") was gracious, ready to listen, and it was ready to be picked up within an hour after I dropped it off. I understand the office is busy and people need to wait in line for service, but at the same time, consideration should be given when you know you have a 100 year-old client with a problem that can be fixed in 5-10 minutes. Instead, we had to go to Urgent Care where our mother was potentially exposed to sick people and falling asleep in the waiting room. I also do not appreciate being interrupted while I'm trying to explain a concern. Be respectful.

It's gauche to nickel and dime a person for a deposit when the Dr. is the one who is lacking in the confidence to do something as simple and as ordinary as what I was inquiring about.

This review is for Warren and Tangela: both very skilled healers! (In Santa Cruz, a city so full…read moreof loving, conscious healers.) I first found Inquire Within because I heard about the massage practice of a woman named Tangela. She had some cool Eastern training and a discount so I wanted to try her out. At that time she gave massages at Inquire Within, though I'm not sure where she works or lives now. She is incredibly talented and deep with her work. I've had many massages from many people and am a Massage Practitioner myself so I recognize quality when I feel it. One of the best massages I've ever gotten definitely. Recommended! There was so much flow and love pouring through her she literally ended it with a little kiss on my forehead! She makes aromatherapy products too. As for Warren Angelo, lucky for me, he was my chiropractor regularly for a long time back when I lived in Santa Cruz! (I think it was about every few weeks for maybe 6-12 months?) It was my first experience with a chiropractor. I was so scared about the concept of some person cracking my neck into place. I thought it would hurt and terrify me. But when I got my massage from Tangela, I met Warren. He was so friendly and disarming and I think offered a free intro - so thus began our ongoing relationship of receiving frequent chiropractic sessions from him in exchange for me giving him professional Swedish massages. I really enjoyed our exchanges! As a Massage Practitioner, it was important for me to experience a chiropractor so I see how well it goes along with massage and how it goes into territory massage can't. Plus Warren's style includes a bit of massage. It was a gentle experience which never hurt me. In fact it brought me so much relief. My mood felt noticeably brighter after just brief sessions with Warren - on his table and also with a special vibrating sorta table he has that'd loosen me up before the adjustments. My nervous system was quite off in ways I didn't even realize before I met Warren. He explained that and felt intuitive and talented to me. Once I took a really intense breathing weekend intensive (Art of Living) which left my ribs really sore and me feeling a bit overloaded and weak. I went to Warren in that state and explained the intensive and he found areas of my spine which were off in a way that full breaths weren't possible hence those breathing exercises being such a strain for my specific body. He adjusted me and I felt so normalized. His adjustments helped me feel really realligned and comfy and stabilized other times too, like after a lot of detoxing and releasing at a Harbin Hot Springs trip complete with many hours of soaking in purifying hot and cold water. And throughout me starting off my massage career. Basically it was through Warren I found what a wonderful component excellent chiropractor sessions can be to someone with a lifestyle full of healing yet intense/physical/emotional experiences and some significant past traumas. Other than the adjustments, the charmingly casual, friendly feel to the office and Warren's personality, his willingness to listen, and insights he speaks add to the overall healing quality of his practice. I've recommended Warren to many people. One of my massage clients was very unalligned and hurting from a bad accident. I felt limited in how much Swedish massage could help him. I sent him to Warren. He loved it and became a regular client of Warren's. Awesome :) I strongly recommend Warren and Tangela!
