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.

Great ENT in the southwest suburbs
I've been with Dr. Lofchy and Dawn Beaudry since 2016 for my chronic sinus infections and environmental allergies. We did everything we could to control environmental triggers and improve my day-to-day quality of life, eventually deciding it was time for surgical intervention. After hearing all of the sinus surgery horror stories, I was beyond relieved to have such a great experience with Dr. Lofchy despite having extensive surgical corrections. I went from multiple sinus infections a year to going three years without a single sinus infection. I breath, sleep, and workout better. Any time I've felt under the weather, fullness in my sinuses/ears, etc. I call, and the team always manages to get me seen in a reasonable amount of time. I've recommended Dr. Lofchy to friends and family - so grateful I found this ENT team!

What a great experience!! I was referred to Dr. Lofchy by a friend at Rush as I'd been experiencing fullness in my ears and sinuses with ringing in my ears as well. I called to make an appointment and as luck would have it they had had a cancellation and could see me immediately. Within an hour I had a full exam and ear cleaning. Learned I have a deviated septum and a sinus infection. Loved Dr. Lofchy and his staff! They could not have been nicer! I highly recommend his practice!

Following the balloon procedure for a sinus condition,during the second follow up visit, this doctor removed tissue without the use of a localized anesthetic. Only a brief topical spray was used. There were 3 separate probes in the nose. This was extremely painful and could have been avoided with the same type of lydocaine application used for the balloon surgery.
