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.

Sad
My primary sent me to him concerning trouble swallowing. Once he reviewed my Xray and MRI he didn't want anything else to do with me. Said I needed neck surgery. They did a separate hearing test and said they would call me for a follow up for hearing issues. Never called me back. Never again be duped by this quack!

Specialist ENT ~ 2022
The entrance started with a simple greeting and easy to fill paperwork that took about 15 minutes to fill out. The interior is a botique style and well organized and clean. There are plenty of staff to help you with your needs. Dr. Kantzler is intelligent, friendly, quick and to the point with explanations of what is going on with you. From start to finish, this was one of the easiest going treatments ever experienced. If you are looking for an ENT specialist doctor who will treat you like family, respect your needs, and treat you with quality, precision and care, then this is the place for you. ~ Well Done!!

Great man, great doctor
There is absolutely zero negative things to say about doctor Kurt Kantzler. I had my tonsils and adenoids removed 6 days ago by him, and he did a fabulous job. He has the best bedside manner that I have ever gotten from a doctor, completely respectful and caring as a person in general. Dr. Kantzler called me personally from his office, while recovering to check up on me and assure that I was doing well, and honestly, it completely surprised me, in many positive ways, because I’ve never had a doctor do that before! I feel very well taken care of, and cared for to the fullest extent possible as a patient. He listens extremely well, and definitely wants the best for his patients. A great man, a great doctor. I definitely recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dr. Kantzler is a most efficient ear doctor for hearing loss and tinnitus, compounded by many years of worsening condition. I highly reccomend this doctor to anyone who has any hearing problem. Dr. Kantzler will listen to your problems attentively, explain what is and what is not. One of the best doctors I have ever experienced. I wish all doctors were as good as Dr. Kantzler. A truthful doctor indeed. I will see him again. Thank you Dr.Kantzler.
