This was an outstanding visit. Dr. Egan's PA was a delight for the case history review, and my ear pain was quickly sorted by Dr. Egan. She also provided tips to prevent problems in the future. I will definitely visit Dr. Egan again for regular ear cleaning & other ENT issues.

She didn't seem to care about me or my concerns. Spent less than 5 minutes with me total in her office. Waste of time and money to see her.

Okay.. I mentioned I was in a lot of pain due to an ear infection and got prescribed sinus relief and ear drops. Zero pain medication. I'm still in so much pain and can't afford to go back in for a second visit.

She’s probably one of my favorite ent doctor to make me feel relieved about my symptoms. Sure, her personality might not be suit for everyone but I am ok with that. As long she know what’s she doing and make me feel comfortable about my condition then she’s good:)
August 29, 2019Khongkwan N.Verified patient
no one in this office is friendly. it's a large space with a big open waiting room but i felt like i was at a funeral home and the exam rooms were stuffy and gloomy and small. it wasn't a pleasant experience.
More than 1 year agoKristen G.Verified patient
I was very impressed with Dr. Egan. I had been suffering from an ear infection since Friday, and although I had already seen two urgent care doctors, only her approach worked and was able to address the pain and the swelling in my ear. She explained how it would feel and what to expect, and how to manage the pain, so that was very helpful. My ear is already feeling much better and I know it will be back to normal in no time.
More than 1 year agoMarta S.Verified patient
Excellent Care! Thanks
January 31, 2019Adam L.Verified patient
The meeting was really short and she did not explain to me fully what the problem was. I had to ask her a lot of questions, but still, I don't think I got enough information. She told me to get some pills but didn't tell me how many should I get and how many days should I be taking them for.

Great

She did a thorough diagnosis, cleaned my ears, gave me options for some of my symptoms, and was able to have an audiologist meet with me in the office.

My experience with Dr. Egan and her team was wonderful. I felt like she took time to really listen and asked me relevant questions. Her feedback and advice felt really honest and tailored to me.
March 30, 2018Amy H.Verified patient
This office's billing practices are disgusting, overzealous, and do not reflect well on Dr. Egan. Would not recommend to even my worst enemy.
December 18, 2017Jason B.Verified patient
Appreciate having Dr. Egan in my neighborhood as a trusted doctor for my ENT needs. Her office staff is very courteous and makes it a point to see you per your appt time. Thanks again, Dr. Egan!
October 23, 2017Nick O.Verified patient
Dr. Egan is knowledgeable and matter-of-fact. Dr. Egan was careful to listen to my answers to her questions as well as capable of receiving information in a judgement-free way. She also gave detailed-but-not-overwhelming information on immediate and future treatment. Absolutely pleased with my experience!!

She spent about 2 minutes with me and then left. Did not check my nose, throat or anything else and the problem still persists.

Dr Egan was nice, and thorough in review of my notes, but in my opinion, did not exhibit the deeper analytical questions that I am looking for in a Dr.

Dr. Egan is caring, quick and professional. I ruptured my ear drum while in martial arts class. I personally cannot stand having anything inside my ears. Dr. Egan was sensitive to my phobia and repaired my ear drum quickly, which healed 100%. Highly recommend her.

Obtained an appt on the same day. Need to wait at least 2 days to start seeing results after taking prescribed medicines. ZocDoc made it possible to see a an ENT doctor when I most needed one.
