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.

THEY DO NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONE AND THE WAIT TIME IS VERY LONG!!

I had deviated septum correction as well as balloon Sinuplasty months ago. I made sure to follow after surgery instructions as per MD. I no longer have to use my CPAP machine, and I don't breathe through my mouth when asleep. No more dry mouth or rotting teeth related to dry mouth. This ENT doctor is top notch in my opinion. The surgeries have been life changing and, I believe life saving as well. If you are suffering from sinus problems, don't hesitate to make an appointment with Dr. James Wright. I can't believe how good my life is now.

I found Dr. Wright to be unprofessional and disrespectful. He used “colorful” language freely in front of my wife and me as well as his staff. He did not actually treat me as I walked out. He MAY be a very good ENT but I believe there is a reason why he advertises on television.

Dr. Wright is extremely energetic and a straight shooter. I have been a sinus sufferer for years and my doctor referred me to him. His staff was so helpful and really got me in to see him the next day. I am free from sinus issues and HIGHLY recommend.

Do a google search on him and where he works (Valley ear, nose and throat specialists). Google maps has reviews. Read their reviews on there, I concur that they never answer their phones. Also, I waited 2 hours for an appointment I was on time for... I'm passed the 2 hour point at this moment. I'm on the verge of walking out. Thank god I don't live in McAllen to deal with places like this. DO NOT COME HERE. I recommend using healthgrades to read reviews from other ENT's in the area.
