This is my first time in qite a while visiting an ENT office. I was very satisfied with the office staff & Dr. Friedman. He explained all the details of my issues and recomended additional tests I needed.
I was also able to see Dr. Stephanies Feller a heating test just after my wisit with Dr. Feldman, which was great. She was very helpful and courteous same as Dr. Fealdman.
Thanks to both Dr's making me feel confortable at the office.
