Appreciate very much his diagnosis and prescribed treatment.Nurse Gina did my allergy test. Thankful for her warning me how painful applying the test on my arms was going to be. It was apparent that she's done it multiple times and she exhibited good knowledge of the results.

"I call Dr Brett Levine “the divine Levine” and mean no disrespect in doing so. He has been my ENT Dr for many years. He is professional and no nonsense when it comes to diagnosis and treatment, but also genuine and caring with a good sense of humor. I also like that he gives you a printed sheet with instructions on what to do AND he expects you to do it! Carole StonichFast forward two years and I've been seeing Dr Sami. One of the things I like about his approach is that he listens to the issues as I state them, translates them into Doc speak and comes up with names for my issues and multiple approaches he thinks will help. The best part of the suggestions is that he is great for suggesting natural/homeopathic options that he has learned about. AND has those in stock or down below in the little pharmacy so you can pick them up when you feel crummy and don't have to stand in line at the pharmacy. Spoiler alert, that tube of choc/mint kelp is a keeper - working for me and my husband - sleeping like babies without cough or acid reflux- 100% natural!!! Carole Stonich"
"Amazing staff! Starting with the front receptionist, the dude, that took my info, Dr. O with the audio test, and Sami the PA who helped me out and answered my questions. Thank you everyone! Hopefully the medication work and all will be good!"

After being processed by the receptionist, I was assisted by Phillipe. Mr. Phillipe was both professional and kind. A very nice man. Next I was seen by Dr. “O”, a very tall and handsome man. He did my hearing evaluation. I really liked his approach, he was pleasant and professional. The last person to help was Dr. Sami. He has the most amazing wise and kind eyes. He was so very understanding to my need. He sensed my fear of having the procedure for my vertigo and he assured me that I would be fine. He was so passionate about getting me better.
