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.

This man has no manners. He did not listen to me 1 iota! Not worth your time. Do not book an appointment with this (doctor) person. ????

I had a rhinoplasty and deviated septum done and I've regretted it ever since. He changed the shape of one nostril and not the other and now I am left with a crooked nose. I have seen another surgeon and they said there is far too much scar tissue for any more surgeries to fix it. My nose runs constantly and have no confidence to smile now that is so noticeably crooked. He gave me the excuse that when i was asleep i was not smiling so he could not tell it was crooked. I would never recommend!!!

Awful. I went to him for rhinoplasty and barely got any one on one time with him. He vaguely listened to what I wanted done, but he made it seem like he knew exactly what he was doing. Here I am 3 years later and still have the same exact issue I had before surgery. Not to mention trying to get a hold of him to ask any type of question or concern is nearly impossible. I don't recommend him to anybody. I basically just tossed away $4,000. And in return, nothing changed.

Dr. Godley was totally professional and obviously is an expert in his field. Both my husband & I found Dr. Godley to be very knowledgeable and with a friendly, but professional, demeanor. I had seen another ENT several weeks prior to this appointment and was looking for a second opinion, so my PCP recommended Dr. G. We both found Dr. Godley to be excellent! Because I had fallen and broken my nose in two places, I was concerned about a deviated septum. Unequivocally, I would recommend him.
