Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wonderful Dr and Surgeon
I have been seeing Dr Fazio for over 20 years and performed more than 5 sinus surgeries over the years and always performed well for me and good bedside manners. Definitely recommend.

Dr. Fazio is the best
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Fazio for the past 32 years, and I can say with confidence that he is the best. He’s saved my hearing on multiple occasions, despite my hesitance to come to doctor’s visits overall. He helped me tremendously as a youth, and showed that doctors can have proper bedside manner. This memory has lingered on towards adulthood, as I can identify that he provides a calming voice as he approaches treatment, optimism for resolution, and focuses on being less invasive if at all possible. A+, he deserves 5 stars.

I will tell anyone looking for the best ENT
Through the years I have had great experiences. The latest was an issue with reaction from a medication causing hives, runny nose, and cough. I stopped the med contacted the prescribing Doctor and had a great result.

Consult re diminished hearing & Increased Tinitis
Dr. Fazio asked straight-to-the-point questions and listened intently. He made strong eye contact and asked follow-on questions that indicated to me that he wanted to assure he had full information and understood my answers. He used large wal-hung cutaways to show critical areas in the auditory system and xplained the anatomy of facial, balance and auditory nerves; and, discussed areas that could be involved in the hearing loss and tinitis. He performed E, N & T exam, commented on his findings and explained the treatment he was recommending. I was greatly impressed with his knowledge and how he communicated. He is very pleasant and I liked him immediately. His knowledge, confidence and explanations make me fully confident in him.

Would recommend
Dr. Fazio is the “old school” doc I still trust these days, armed with all the “new school” anyone would expect or want. Excellent manner and communication. Seems to genuinely care, and has the experience and knowledge so many docs don’t yet have. Friendly and responsive assistants as well!

Love Dr. Fazio
He has been my family's doctor for years; we love him. He has always explained to me what was going on and didn't treat me like I was stupid which a lot of doctors do not do. Would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Best EENT Ever
I have used Dr. Fazio for over 40 years. I am always amazed by how well he can target and remedy problems. I have taken my daughter, son, Mom, Dad, husband, and myself to see only him. When you have the best, there is no reason to look any further. The staff is always sweet and as accomodating as possible. That always makes a visit to the doctor a pleasure
