“Dr.Downie was really kind and thorough, kind of funny too. He made looking at the inside of my nose a chill experience overall. Everyone in the office was very nice, and they called me back before my appt time. Probably the most relaxed appointment I’ve ever had anywhere. That’s saying a lot considering I had a camera shoved in my nose. ”

“Dr.Downie is incredible. He has taken great care of my health and is very thorough. The medical office staff is beyond amazing. I’ve never felt rushed and he asks questions. It took me a while to find a ENT doctor that made me feel comfortable and welcome. The staff has always been helpful and they listen to any questions and provide answers. It is worth the drive and I recommended him to my mother who now has an upcoming appointment. I actually look forward to the visits. I will definitely recommend Dr.Downie if asked who’s a good ENT.
