“Dr. Lee Kaplowitz was absolutely wonderful. He took the time to listen to all of my concerns, explained everything clearly, and made sure I understood the next steps in my treatment. I never felt rushed and really appreciated how kind, patient, and attentive he was throughout the entire visit. And to top it all off, he even gave me a Chupa Chups at the end, which genuinely made me smile. It’s the little things that make a big difference. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a doctor who truly cares about his patients.”

Well, he was extremely professional and very friendly and welcoming! I went to two other ENT‘s, his colleagues prior to with no real help! Within five minutes, he pinpointed the problem and showed it to me on my CAT scan, which the other two did not see. Although it was a sad outcome at least I got a direction and an answer after three months of pursuing the problem and not getting any relief!

Great doctor, clean office, decent to none wait time. Front desk could be better. First time I tried to switch my appointment time with my family member’s appointment time and they just gave away one of the appointments to someone else as I’m on the phone with representative. I was waiting for this spot over a month! Instead of fixing the situation, I was just rudely answered that «there is nothing they could» do and rescheduled for another MONTH.
