Dr. Aaron Feinstein was the third doctor I saw for my ears feeling full 24/7. He did tests right away in the office to reveal nothing. He then recommended a CT scan and suggested some over-the-counter allergy meds in case was allergies. I’ve been on allergy meds and finally have some relief. I’m grateful for his suggestion. Great listener, easy to talk to, sympathetic. I highly recommend this doctor.

First of all I am so happy to have found Dr. Feinstein as my ENT. He is such a patient doctor. He takes time to listen to my concerns and answered all my questions, I do not feel like my treatment has been rushed at all. When i came in to the office, staff was ready for me already and did not even have to wait long. Overall experience so far for the two visits i had is excellent.
Scheduling was very easy. Uploading the documents and completing the forms in advance meant we were all set when we arrived. They took us in fairly quickly. The doctor was very thorough in his exam and was clear in explaining his findings. Overall very pleased with the experience.
Dr. Feinstein seemed to really feel the urgency I was feeling about losing my voice. I have scheduled a follow up appointment and feel confident that everything will work out.
Verified patient
Very thorough, listened, efficient, and kind! This office is a bit of a drive for me, but it's worth it for a professional who needs a professional.
Great first experience with Dr. Feinstein and the whole ENT office — friendly, very helpful, clear communication, office running on time and very efficiently. Highly appreciate them and recommend seeking their help.
I truly am so grateful for Dr. Feinstein. I am a professional singer who has been through a traumatic vocal injury in the past. He helped me heal my injury and has been there for me for check ups throughout the past few years. He is very kind, attentive, and thorough. As a singer it is so imperative to me to maintain my vocal health and I’m grateful to have Dr. Feinstein to help me do so.
Verified patient
He was friendly and very professional. Not much of a sense of humor. Did not get the outcome, testing or answer I needed. I specifically made appt for ear review and audio testing. Did not get the latter. Had to make another appt. Staff was friendly.
Verified patient
Dr Feinstein is the most compassionate, kind, and thorough ENT! His office staff are really warm and genuine, and he takes his time meeting with you. He does not rush you out and there isnt an extensive wait period. He is very helpful in getting to the root of your symptoms and concerns, Im very grateful for him.

My experience with Dr. Feinstein was very positive. He was careful, and listened attentively and took time to examine me thoroughly. He didn't pretend to have the answer to my problem, but will consult with my internist and get back to me.

The receptionist at the front desk was very curt and off putting as a new client coming into the practice. The back office staff were nice but could introduce themselves as they engage with clients. Back office staff person was pleasant, competent and helpful.

Dr. Feinstien really listens and empathizes. He walking me through the procedure of looking inside of my nose and then discussed next steps clearly. I left feeling like I was heard and that I know what to expect for my upcoming CT scan.

I like that the doctor was able to give me something more conservative to try before sending me for labs/scans. I got a prescription nasal spray right away and it's been working well. He was very friendly and really listened!
Verified patientVideo visit
I was seen very quickly. Didn't wait long at all. The office staff was friendly each time I called. This was my first visit. Didn't spend a lot of time with Dr. Feinstein. I felt like he did listen intently as I explained my concerns. A bit quiet but so far so good.
Very good doctor! Took the time to speak with me about what was bothering me and took a comprehensive approach to solving the problem
Knew I'd like him after about 10 seconds. And then everything backed that up. Listened patiently and responded thoughtfully to what I said. Took a good amount of time to inspect me and even checked out a second issue that came up on the fly without an extra charge (I was paying out of pocket). I don't normally do these kind of feedbacks, but am really happy to do this one,
Verified patient
His office had to move me up slightly because he needed to go into OR, but I had completely forgotten all this during the appointment- His focus, empathy and patience with me never once made me feel rushed or anxious. I'd been stuck with an abscess over the weekend that an ER and urgent care clinic hadn't been able to resolve, so I was really falling apart, but he was able to be gently reassuring and personable, taking many opportunities to verbally check in, step back if I needed space (there were a couple of gagging incidents...), and express empathy/concern in order to comfort/console.
Verified patient
Aaron Feinstein is one of the most squisite, very well prepared and nicest ENT doctors I’ve ever had a visit with. Thanks to him I’m solving only now a very bad nose congestion problem (enlarged turbinates) I’ve been dealing with for 3 months. Highly recommended!!
