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.

The BEST Ear Doctor in Nevada
Dr Sean Palacious has been my Otolaryngology Specialist for over 6 years. Back then after several exams and consultations he performed an ear operation and I could hear as well from both ears. I just finished my annual follow-up with Dr Palacious and his asst. Darlene. He was his consistently pleasant and caring self. Darlene makes one feel welcomed because of her contagious smile (she had to move her mask down so I could see). Anyway, I wanted to tell others about the fantastic experience I have had over the the years with Dr Palacious and his Team. If you are in need I highly recommend him

A Dr is only as good as his Staff
TERRIBLE OFFICE ASSISTANTS - Called to make an appointment on a Tuesday morning at 8 am, immediately sent to voice mail if you want to book an appointment, so I left a message to call my cell phone as I worked days and might miss a home call. Then, I waited ALL day - No call back. Called again the next day, Same thing - FINALLY on the 3rd day, they called my home - so I missed that. SO irritating - If the Dr can't hire competent staff, then how can you trust that your personal information, test results, or other important information will be treated with professionalism. And saying "We're short staffed" is a lame excuse. NO Dr is SO busy that a staff member can't make a phone call left 3 days ago - You'll have better luck reaching a Government Office like the IRS then you will trying to make an appointment at this office.

New patient. PA did exam. Asked questions. Did brief exam. Tech came to take me for a hearing test. I asked why. She said the doctor ordered it. I asked to speak to the doctor. He came storming in very confrontational saying I had hearing loss. I told him that was the problem with second hand information. Not my complaint. He then stated that I did not seem happy. I agreed. He stated the meeting was over. I left. Don't expect to treated with respect by this doctor.if you ask questions.

Dr. Palacios and his staff are wonderful and caring health professionals. Dr. Palacios is very caring and compassionate doctor. He explains everything to you so you do understand. Dr. Palacios put my first Cochlear implant in May 2016. I did so well with it I want to hear everything so I went back to him and January in did my second implant. It is so wonderful to be able to hear again! Thank you Darlene for asking the doctor the question I forgot to ask. Dr. Palacios and his staff are awesome!!

Dr. Palacios is a very caring doctor. He explained my conditions to me clearly. He referred me to the audiologist for tests and hearing aids. I work with Sarah Thompson, who is terrific. She will answer all of your questions and take all the time that you need to understand what is going on. I would highly recommend both of them!

This was my first time with this dr and it was the worst experience I've ever had. He made me feel so small. The way he spoke to me was completely rude. I went to him because people recommended him to me since I've been unwell for months now. I left with no answers and no treatments. Dr wouldn't listen to me regarding all the symptoms I've been experiencing as well as hospital diagnosis and he didn't even seem to care. I will not be returning to him.
