February 10, 2026Tracenia L.Verified patient
I went in for an ear wax cleaning at my first appointment with Dr. Coker. During the procedure, my left ear began bleeding, and it was still bleeding when I left the office. The next day it hadn't stopped, so I went to the ER, where I was put on antibiotics. I later also needed a blood clot drained from my ear. I also felt the visit was unprofessional. I wasn't told what was being done during the cleaning, and I was asked personal questions that felt out of place for a first appointment. I had expected a simple cleaning, and this was a very disappointing experience.

I was grateful for the last minute appointment due to the pain I was experiencing. Lisa the doctors scheduler went above and beyond to ensure I was seen asap. Excellent Doctor. Bedside manner was extremely important to me. Dr. Coker listened to my concerns, diagnosed the problem and I’m now recovering.

The staff was friendly and polite. The nurses were very clear about any item the doctor was going to discuss. The Doctor was patient, compassionate and understanding of what I was there for. She instructed me on how she would handle my issue and then proceeded to examine me and explain what her findings were.
