Absolutely amazing experience! Great office and friendly staff. Doctor Leyla Johnson was super friendly, attentive and went above and beyond to make sure I had the right directions on what to do next. Highly recommend.

I went for a simple ear cleaning, which ended up requiring multiple visits, resulted in a complication and ultimately needed to be handled by someone else.
Additionally, BCBS is listed as in-network on Zocdoc, but I was told when I arrived that's not correct (just that it would apply to my out-of-network deductible).
Otherwise very friendly and professional.

Great experience, Leyla Johnson was incredibly sweet and attentive, We were seen by the doctor immediately and got to a solution to the problem very quickly. 100% recommend!
March 10, 2025Luna B.Verified patient
If you have any ENT related questions or concerns, I recommend speaking with Leyla. I felt very comfortable speaking with her about my symptoms and walked away feeling much better about my current situation.
The office is extremely clean and welcoming. My wait time was only a minute or so. It was a little hard to locate the office front door off of 5th Ave. I suggest an additional sign right outside the office door.
Thank you!
