Erik is a great doc. He keeps a video of my ears, nose, and throat from each visit. We were able to compare how my ear drums look today to how they looked a year ago after a scuba diving incident. I also like that there's no waiting before the appointment. He's professional and personable.
Dr Kass is professional, very attentive, and explains your diagnosis with clear language and helpful diagrams. He took care of my symptoms and was extremely thorough. I recommend him.
Excellent doctor. Highly recommended!
Very informative and helpful
Dr. Kass is very knowledgeable, professional, takes time to answer any questions or any concerns. Highly recommend Dr. Kass.
Dr. Kass is an excellent doctor. He was professional but warm, very informative without being pedantic, and has a great sense of humor and clearly is very skilled. I have already recommended him to my family and friends!
He's awesome! I'm very impressed on how efficient he was. I'm amazed by how he can do everything by himself and still make the office run smoothly compared to other doctor's offices I have been to. He took his time explaining everything to me without making me feel rushed. Highly recommend him to anyone suffering with allergies.
I was impressed with his service which was very timely and proffesional.
Wow. Dr. Kass is amazing! He is patient and humble, but so knowledgeable and intelligent at the same time. He listened to all of my concerns and was able to come up with a fair treatment plan of action. He admitted that he wasn't quite sure what the answer was, but knows something is definitely going on and assured me he would help me until we figured it out. He looks at the body as a whole instead of patching a symptom. I think I have finally found a doctor who will help me find some answers and that is hard to find these days! He even took a video of my ear, nose and throat and was able to play it back for me to see. Highly recommend!
He was really thorough and professional. I liked his immediate video of my nose and throat, and the comparison videos to show me how mine is different. I will follow up with his recommendations, and see what happens. Hopefully I will not be tired all the time any more.
By far the most understanding, interested and likable doctor I have ever been to. My concern was taken seriously and I felt immediately at ease with Dr. Kass. So glad to have found him. I believe I will finally be well!
I think I got a gem today when I had my visit/appointment with Dr. Kass. Dr. Kass is very professional, knows his stuff, took care of my problem, explained everything in detail and was very personable too. Can't imagine finding a doctor like him these days, except for a few. I highly recommend him and will tell my friends and family about him, which by the way I already did after my appointment today!
He's a one-man show who has it all under control. Easy to get an appointment and knows what he is about.
Dr. Kass was amazing as usual today. His holistic approach to the body allows him to diagnose problems correctly without making rash recommendations. His suggestions always work. This is what all doctors should be like.
Very good and professional, Spent a lot of time on the computer and a little with me.
Dr. Kass was very professional and thorough. I would reccommend him to a friend.
All doctors should have his "bedside manner" - he is very thorough, takes as much time as the patient needs, and builds a comfort level by talking to the patient as though they are a friend or family.
Very thorougj
Truly a pleasure!!
Dr. Kass was thorough and friendly. Exactly what I want from a medical professional.
Excellent! Dr. Kass is by far one of the best physicians I have ever been treated by. I have total confidence in his abilities and medical advice. Very glad to have found him again!
excellent, very personal
Incredibly knowledgeable and thorough. Will spend as much time with patient as needed and truly beyond. Exceptional professional who is solely focused on finding a solution and not banaiding the problem and moving you out. Surely, here is one doctor who certainly puts patient before $. Wow, I can't say enough - a total breath of fresh air....!! Almost too good to be called a "doctor". All from a person who is not easily impressed! Thanks doc!
I can hear! Thanks to Dr. Kass.
Dr.Kass was great. He listened to everything I said and even read the document I created to keep track of my issues over the past few months. He took his time and didn't rush ( I felt a little bad because I think he missed his lunch). It was just him, which was fine, he uses technology to his benefit and those he sees. He allowed questions and used his reasoning to work out some of my issues, some things can't be taught in school.
Excellent doctor, prompt, knowledgeable, efficient.
First appointment with Dr Kass. Office has convenient parking (check the instructions). I was able to fill out most paperwork online, with only a few things to do in the office. Dr Kass uses technology to his (and my) benefit. This includes not only the check-in process but also the examinations and prescriptions. I was given ample time for the examination, and lots of time to discuss his conclusions including insight from his experience working in his field for so many years. I appreciated the detailed communication and ample time for my concerns. I'll be looking forward to additional interactions with Dr Kass. Very highly recommended.
Dr. Erik Kass is very polite, personable, and understanding.
I'll make it short. Stay away from this guy.
He runs a boutique practice w/ excellent service.
Very satsfied. Dr Kass is very knowledgeable and efficient in his field. After thorough examination he does the diagnosis.
Dr. Kass is very thorough and shares lots of information, which I like. I plan to recommend to friends.
I saw him to get blood vessels in my nose cauterized due to daily nose bleeds. i asked him about this pain possibly triggering migraines and it did help stop the migraines from reoccurring. Dr. Kass is very knowledgeable and pleasant.
Very professional. He takes a lot of time to explain you everything he does, and discuss about the options you have. Totally recommended!
Very Good
Dr. Kass is great. He did some sinus surgery on me about 10 years ago when I lived in Virginia and did an excellent job! I moved and it wasn't convenient to get to his office so I didn't see him until now when I was looking for an ENT for an ear infection. I was happy to see he had moved his practice to Maryland, not far from where I work and live. I was able to get an appointment right away and he took great care of me as always. Dr. Kass has a great approach and gives you straight answers to your questions. I recommend him to anyone who needs a down-to-earth doctor who cares about his patients.
i enjoyed the visit with dr kass and found him to be professional and given to thorough explanations when presenting his findings. at this point we await further diagnostics in order to completely assess the symptoms and form a diagnosis.
Excellent visit. I came with a minor problem, which Dr. Kass handled easily and gave me an extra overall advice in his area
The Doctor was very Knowledgeable, he put me at ease and I was able to open up and ask all the questions that I needed! It was a big plus to meet him right as I entered the office, no third party ( receptionist) make it better for you to interact with the Dr.
Dr Erik Kass is very helpful ,very informative in his field .i strongly refer my friends to his office . nouri
very informative and great bedside manner
Dr Kass is great. I especially appreciate that he takes time to explain the diagnosis and answer questions. He even takes video of the ENT exam to play back so that you can see what he's talking about.
He's wonderful, very thorough, takes time to explain what he's doing, what the problem is, doesn't rush you. First appointment but thankful I was referred to him by my granddaughter. She thought he was wonderful, too. I'll refer him to anyone I know who needs an ENT doctor.
He does not cut corners.
Dr. Kass was very attentive, very informative. One of my best visits to a health care provider. Nice clean quite clinic. Same day or next day appointment. State of the art diagnostic equipments. I highly recommend Dr Kass for any of your Ear Nose Throat check up.
He was very professional. I still have to have an audiological evaluation and get back to him.
How refreshing to go to a doctor who is thoughtful, reflective, analytical and a good listener. These qualities are supplemented by the use of equipment that enables him to thoroughly inform and educate the patient, and himself.
Dr. Kass is wonderful as usual! He takes his time to do a thorough assessment and listen to your concerns then explains what he sees and any treatment options. He's been very helpful in explaining ENT issues I've experienced throughout my life but didn't know the cause. I highly recommend him!
Generally he is prompt but today he was 30 minutes behind schedule. Great doctor, very professional.
I felt that Dr. Kass listened intently to my symptoms. His exam seemed thorough; he offered what I thought to be viable solutions. I plan on seeing him again, and have already recommended him to others.
Great as always. Terrific with kids.
Dr. Kassel was extremely thorough, easy to talk to and used some neat technology to illustrate his findings. Overall, a very positive experience!
I love him he was one of the best Doctor I have ever seen. I would recommend to anyone,he was very professional,great eye contact,explained everything in detail,nice and friendly made me feel very comfortable. Thank you zocdoc for helping me find him.
Amazing doctor! I wish he could be my primary doctor... Even though I did not have anything major, he took his time to explain all the possibilities why I had a pain in my ear. Dr. KASS answered all my questions and concerns. He is one of the few doctors left who's main priority is a patient. I got first class tour of the innards of my ear canal. ;) He explain everything from the video feed he made during examination.Thank you very much Doctor Kass. That was verynice to meet you!
I have never had such a thorough, helpful experience with a doctor. Dr. Kass spent nearly 1 1/2 hours with me, diagnosing my condition, discussing the options and suggesting follow up. I am amazingly impressed with him and am lucky to have found him on ZocDoc.
Efficient, wonderful with kids.
I thought the Dr was excellent. He has his own system of recording video of your ear, nose, throat. He will review it all with you. He could tell me things about myself going back to childhood! Easy does it on the paper work- he keeps it to a minimum. Great experience and on a Saturday too. He is highly trained and skilled at what he does. Could not go to any other ENT now that I have found Dr Kass.
He was super knowledgeable and I appreciate that he didn't dumb down anything. He gave a very comprehensive evaluation and consultation. He seemed very perceptive and a great listener. I feel that he laid out all the options for me and allowed me to understand and monitor my conditions better.
Dr. Kass is very caring and took the time to listen to my problems. Additionaly, making an appointment was very easy using their online appointment book ( i needed to make an appointment during the weekend). I like everything about the doctor, except the parking.
Great Doctor! Very informed and very informative. Really takes the time to explain all particulars and answer all questions in a personable & friendly manner.
Great doctor who was very very quick to see his patient. I scheduled my appointment literally the day before and he was able to accommodate me. He has really neat tools that allowed me to see inside my throat ear and nose. Also, great convenient location. Highly recommended.
This guy is great! Very thorough. Got to the bottom of my tonsillitis diagnosis quickly when other doctors had failed to identify my ailment. Very good at walking me through the problem and the solution without leaving out details or sounding patronizing. Great doctor!
He saw me right away. Has a clean office. Listened carefully. Explained his observations and conclusions using a web cam video showing the inside of my nose. Gave me options medically and financially. Definitely earned a five star rating.
Excellent doctor. I was late for my appointment and he still saw me right away and with a smile. Quickly diagnosed my condition and put me on an aggressive course of treatment.
Dr Kass is outstanding specialist. At my first visit he impressed me with his knowledge, thoroughness, patience and communication skills. I'm very pleased.Easy scheduling,prompt service, great problem solving.
Very competent. Cares very much about the patient. Thorough and methodical. I would highly recommend him. Also very friendly.
Dr. Kass took a thorough history and gave me a detailed clinical exam. He developed a plan of care that is comprehensive... AND, he made it all seem effortless!
Very professional and thorough. Much better than the last ENT doctor I saw in Gaithersburg.
One thing I like about this office is that Dr. Kass has excellent beside manner and he spends quality time with you and go over each issue (if you have one). He makes recommendations to remedy your problem. Like the personalization he provides.
He was really good. His office is very high tech and he spent plenty of time explaining things.
Dr. Kass was very informative, and super thorough. I will be returning to use Dr. Kass!
Dr. Kass is an all-around incredible doctor. He is open-minded when it comes to diagnosing problems and explains all your options in an understandable way, but isn't condescending like many doctors are (i.e. doesn't dumb it down). He was extremely patient (no pun intended :-) with my questions and he didn't jump straight to prescribing pills. He spent just under 2 hours going over all my questions and educating me about common causes for the health concerns I was having. No wait time. Free parking in a nearby house's driveway, just ask about it before you go. And he does a comprehensive test of the ears, nose and throat with a video camera that he walks you through after. Nothing but great things to say about him.
A thorough exam. Was not rushed. Dr. Kass answered all my questions in great detail...just what one likes to see in a doctor.
Very professional. Very, very thorough. Explained every part of the exam. Very patient. Excellent doctor!! Loved him. Easy going personality. Office is very well organized. I have tremendous confidence in his ability as an ENT. I would, and have already, highly recommend Dr. Erik Kass with no hesitations.
I checked his educational background as well as his research experience. He is one of the best doctors I've met. He took the time to explain about my condition, and my options. I highly recommend him.
Was able to fit me in when others where closed or not taking patients. thank you for the dedication to patients.
HE IS THE BEST ENT doctor Ive encountered in all my 78 years
He's very professional. I will recommend him to my friends
The appointment was for my 91 year old mother who has dementia and he was very good with her.
Other than a lack of signage out front...
Took care of my issue very quickly and thoroughly.
He is just the BEST Doctor I have ever been too with his thoroughness; time spent with patient; and his overall demeanour
Very informative and knowledgable.
I thought Dr. Kass was great! There's something to be said about the care you receive from a private practice; there's just no comparison. He spent a lot of time with me ensuring I understood the diagnosis, treatment, and next steps. I feel so lucky to have found him!
He is excellent, thorough, and professional. He is caring and gets to the root of the problem. I feel confident in his abilities.
Happy that Dr. Kass was able to see me with next day appointment.
Fast and efficient.
I was very impressed with Dr. Kass. I have been to other ENTs and I never had the time spent with me that he spent. He explained everything and listened to what I was saying. I felt like a person and not just a number to be pushed through. He gave me a good feeling that I would have positive results with a problem that I have had for a long time.
We had a great experience with Dr. Kass.
Highly recommended. Dr. Kass took a video of the entire exam. Afterwards he walked me through the video and explained everything going on (blown ear drum). Having been to many ear doctors I would rate him as one of the best.
Excellent, would recommend
Dr. Kass does a fantastic job of explaining exactly what was happening, treatment actions moving forward and timeline expectations for feeling better!
One of the most communicative, articulate, educated, skilled doctors I have ever met. Dr. Kass is an excellent listener; he focuses in on what your issue, explains things in terms you can understand, makes you feel comfortable and knows exactly what he's doing during the exam. 5 stars!
Dr. Kass runs an efficient and respectable practice. He keeps me informed of what he is doing, shows me what he sees (using cameras) and explains to me in lamens terms what is going on. Truely impressed. He uses technology in a way that is sensitive to both the patients time and his time. He is also really good about getting back to his patients before the end of the business day. His office is easy to get to and he even has weekend hours, perfect for the working professional.
HE WAS VERY THOROUGH AND RELIEVED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND AN INFECTION AND TREATED IT. ALL BETTER NOW.
Erik is very knowledgeable. He took a video of my ears, nose, and throat, and showed me what was happening with my ears, as well as the progress after treatment. Very cool!
After seeing several doctors in our area Dr. Kass was the only one that was able to offer a comprehensive diagnosis of my son's problem and begin a treatment to address the situation. A real doctor. thank you.
It went very well. No problems.
Dr. Kass was great. My babysitter cancelled at the last minute so I had my daughters (3yrs & 5yrs) with me and he took it all in stride. He was efficient, focused,helpful, kind and gave me great care. I am so happy to have found such a good ENT.
Very Professional and effective
I felt totally loved and taken care of. Very competent and informative.
Very professional
Dr Kass is superior to any other doctor or medical professional I have seen. I feel so lucky to have been referred to him by a family member. Dr. Kass spent over an hour with me during my first visit and that has never happened in my entire life!
He was professional and thorough and solved our problem.
Dr. Kass was very well informed and took time to talk with me about my symptoms and how to address them. The exam was very thorough.
Dr. Kass was thorough and knowledable. Highly recommended.
He helped me with my ENT and my derm problem as well!
Excellent. Informative.
Very knowledgeable and considerate. Dr. Kass insures the patient has full understanding of the diagnosis and potential treatments. He's open, friendly, and clearly highly competent. He epitomizes what a physician should be.
Dr Kass was very knowledgable and really paid attention to my concerns and questions, his treatment and suggestions were very clear and satisfactory. I would come back any time to his office
Great Doctor, I am lucky I found him on ZocDoc on such short notice. I will see him again!
Very professional, courteous and considerate. Dr Kass took the time to explain my condition and what underlying issues he thought to be contributing factors. He patiently listened to my questions and gave me good tips and insights into how to effectively manage my condition. I thought that his treatment methods were very soundly progressive.
Super ear, nose and throat doctor. Wonderful manner with my 4 year old son; great location in Bethesda. Highly recommended.
Dr. Kass was wonderful! I would recommend this doctor to anyone!
Excellent! I walked away with a full understanding of my condition and the confidence that a thorough assessment was performed. As he performed the procedure he accurately prepared me for what to expect with each step. One of the best physicians visits I have ever experienced.
This was a new patient visit. We were extremely satisfied with Dr. Kass. We will definitely see him again and recommend him to others!
great visit, very professional, he was very attentive and he took the time to SHOW what is going on in your E_T_N!! great doctor!!
Dr. Kass was very professional and knowledgeable. He was seeing patients (including me) on a Saturday morning and got backed up, but I was glad to have an appointment at a time that worked for me. When he got to me, he spent all the time needed for full attention.
Awesome!
Efficient.
He was very knowledgeable and used advanced technology to better explain my prognosis which helped me understand things better.
Dr. Kass is a from a good experience that makes you feel like he truly cares about your well-being.
This was by far the best doctor's appointment I have ever had. Dr. Kass spent an entire hour with me, explaining his entire thought process. Not to mention, I have seen several other doctors for this particular issue, and no one was able to help. I saw Dr. Kass yesterday, and am already starting to feel better today. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Kass for any ENT issue.
This was the best experience I've had with a medical professional in a long long tune. Dr. Kass spent a lot of time with me, listened and helped with me with problems that were outside of the scope of the reasons for my visit.
Really takes his time with you to ensure that you understand what is going on regarding your particular condition. It's truly a great educational experience having appointments with Dr.Kass.
Carefully explained what he was doing and why. Appreciated his cautious approach.
Very professional, friendly and informative.
My opinion is that he is a a doctor that you feel you could trust and is knows his field
Great doctor. Highly recommend.
Very useful!
Dr. Kass was very thorough and provided detailed and easy to understand explanations. I appreciated he taking the time to go through all the details with us.
Very thorough and explains things well.
Erik was friendly, he did a thorough exam and the provided several treatment options to consider.
I'm very satisfied. Dr. Kass is very nice he makes you feel at home. He takes the time to explained all your options and he does that in a very gentile and professional way. He is an excellent Doctor and I trust his experience.
If all doctors were as professional and passionate as Dr. Kass, no one would fear the doctor. He is hands-down the best in ENT in DC.
Dr. Kass is a from a rare breed of Doctors that makes you feel like he truly cares about your well-being. I only wish I could find a GP with half the kindness and care that Dr. Kass shows his patients.
My son has been struggling with the same problem for a few years now - it's something that developed slowly, and we didn't notice it until it was severe. We've seen several doctors (I'm talking Children's Hospital, Johns Hopkins, etc.), and had one surgery that gave temporary relief. But yesterday we saw Dr. Kass for the first time. Not only did he know exactly what we were talking about, but he showed us the problem on screen - we could actaully see it!! He also came up with a plan of action. The cure will not happen overnight, but just knowing that we finally have someone who is listening to us, and is taking the time to REALLY look at the problem and find REAL solutions is a huge load off our minds. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Kass, and will probably be recommending him for saint-hood in the near future!
Scheduled my procedure right away, very easy to communicate with.
Extremely thorough and thoughtful when prescribing medication so that I did jot need to come back for a refill. He was very flexible and I will be back.
Took time and went over everything more than once to make sure of his diagnosis. Explained what he was doing and why. Easygoing and informative. Highly recommended.
Professional, Knowledgeable, Courteous
Excellent doctor who not only addresses my symptons but also provide insightful opinion based on my medical history and current condition.
Spent a lot of time with me on a complicated history. I was treated with respect and given very good follow-up advice.
Dr. Erik Kass was very professional and knowledgeable.
Dr. Kass was very professional and provided a comfortable atmosphere. He showed me what he was doing and explained what I was viewing in layman terms.
Knows how to connect issues and think deeply about a patient's problem. Felt very satisfied as I walked out of his office. Lets the patient choose the right treatment strategy and helps them solve health issues.
Dr. Kass is extremely knowledgeable and capable of explaining what is going on in clear and intelligible terms. He's very professional and yet personable and pleasant. And to think that I almost didn't show up for my appointment because his picture somehow gave me a different impression. Don't be put off by the photo. He doesn't look anything like it. He's a terrific doc!
I'm a new patient who came on the advice of a former co-worker. I can see why she recommended Dr. Kass. He's very patient. He took his time with me and all of my questions before making some recommendations that may not involve any surgery at all.
He was great ,Professional and very nice!!!
Great work.
Excellent service, thorough evaluation, and very informative regarding medical concerns and options.
My appointment with Dr. Kass was refreshing. He genuinely cares about his patients. He was very thorough, professional, friendly, and very informative.
Seems very knowledgeable and professional
Had a very good experience. Went to see him for an ear infection. He took his time to do a thorough exam and to explain his findings and conclusions to me. Have cash or checks at hand for your copay, though.
Dr. Kass was very thorough and took a great deal of time to provide clear, detailed explanations about his diagnosis and recommendations for improving my symptoms.
Great doctor, cares about patients.
Very good visit - will definitely go back for ENT concerns.
Great. I have already told other to make an appointment.
Dr. Kass was very professional but also very personable, like I had been his patient for years. He listened and paid attention to everything I said when I was talking. He showed me the respect I deserve as a person which you don't always get from doctors.
Dr. Erik Kass is fantastic. He explains things thoroughly and was very open to listening to my ideas and talking with me. Definitely happy about choosing to see him!
Excellent!!
Very good and he have explain what was wrong with me, he spend extra time to do that.he is a very good doctor.
Dr. Kass met me on a Saturday. First time office visit. Took a long time to hear about and discuss my problems. Very emphathetic. Takes a holistic perspective. Rocommend highly.
He provided great care and i would recommend him to everyone i know!
He gave me hope for a condition that was considered to be untreatable by other doctors. Loved his attitude and treatment - no rush, open and friendly.
Most efficient Dr.'s visit ever. Went in, got fixed, got out. All in under 30minutes.
Wow, what can I say? Dr. Kass took the time to explain everything to me; he treated me as a human and not as a number.
This zocdoc service is awesome. Made setting an appointment completely hassle-free. He even called to give me the option of moving my appointment earlier from the scheduled start
My visit with Dr. Kass made me very grateful for his knowledge and communication skills. The whole "paperless" thing was a unique experience...gave him the time to listen, and gave me time to ask questions.
Dr. Kass took the time to be human, explaining the procedures and my probable diagnosis as well as chatting a bit. He was there for me (a brand-new patient!) on a holiday-weekend Saturday.
Dr Kass is very efficient
Dr. Kass was very helpful in listening to my symptoms and devising a treatment plan for me. I appreciated the time he took and am already feeling better. Thanks Dr. Kass!
I had a pretty bad ear infection. I found Dr. Kass on ZocDoc and he was able to see me immediately. Treatment was very effective, and scheduling appointments was very easy and flexible. Also, the ear infection was all taken care of, and I believe it was done as fast and effectively as possible.
I thought he was great.
absolutly first class,he was engagiing ,informative,and made me feel at ease,very pleased!
He's a fine, careful doctor with an excellent background, who took the time to explain and educate about my condition, medications usage, etc. I highly recommend him, for patients of any age, and I certainly would go back to him again. Also, he saw me on a Saturday morning, a rare and welcome benefit in starting treatment on a painful condition, instead of having to wait over the weekend or longer.
Dr. Kass was simply amazing! I went to see him in discomfort and a little disheartened from the experiences I'd had from care i received earlier in the week. It's been a few hours since he treated me for a double ear infection and I'm like a new person. He took time to conduct a thorough examination, he explained every step of the treatment process to me and was constantly checking to make sure I was comfortable as he treated me. I couldn't have asked to be in better hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will never be able to thank him enough, but I will try! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Great doctor, and great person. Takes time and explains everything clearly!
