Dr. Brunner is very thoughtful and thorough even looking at last year’s unrelated MRI to check for an issue. He made a painful procedure bearable and completed it quickly. Great experience overall!

Saw me quickly and gave me a fast diagnosis of an issue that was bothering me. Scheduled a follow up to ensure the treatment is working as intended. Great office, great staff.
January 26, 2026Thomas T.Verified patient
This was my first visit to the office. I traveled from NY because I had been dealing with symptoms for over a month and could not find availability closer to me. I was happy to have met Dr. Brunner's professional acquaintance. The PA Ana (sp?) took a fairly thorough history prior to Dr. Brunner coming in. Dr. Brunner himself got right to the business of my symptoms, duration, and severity. He then scoped my nose with the benefit of some lidocaine which I totally appreciated since other ENT's have approached this evaluative task with less sensitivity. He discussed a plan for managing my symptoms as well as a return visit, etc. for follow up. All said, I felt he gave me the same attention as a regular patient. He was kind, attentive and explained everything well. Highly recommend.

November 27, 2025juan T.Verified patient
Doctor was friendly and understanding, appointment was quick and after seeing two previous doctors he was easily able to diagnose and treat my issue.
November 18, 2025Amanda M.Verified patient
Friendly professional staff. Both prompt and flexible. Knowledgeable. All the characteristics one hopes to get in a service like this but rarely gets, least of all together in a single place. I wish more places ran as smoothly, with as much grace.

Great bedside manner, and helped validate that my symptoms were in fact a sinus infection by checking with a scope. Dr. Brunner came up with a resolution to help and I appreciated that he wanted me to schedule a 2 week follow up to make sure I’m getting better.
November 13, 2025Jaclyn S.Verified patient
Dr Brunner was very professional & sympathetic to my issue. He was efficient & gentle during the procedure. I will definitely use his services again-very good experience.
