My mom said Dr. Lo was the rudest doctor she has ever met and is only interested in seeing as many patients as possible and pushing $1000 hearing aid products. For most doctors, you have to wait a long time to be seen. But for this one, you were rushed in and out the door in a blink of an eye! OK, maybe an exaggeration. My mom got tested by an assistant in a small enclosed booth, the size of a phone booth (if you've ever seen one of those!). Then she saw the doctor for 5 mins! The doctor asked my mom to say "ah" and looked in her mouth. Then she declared my mom was deaf and pushed the hearing aids she was selling. She said everyone over the age of 60 is deaf. My mom didn't get to speak much. Since my mom refused to buy the hearing aid after a 4-min investigation, she was hurried out. My mom didn't realize that one of her neighbours has also see Dr. Lo had had the same experience. OHIP pays doctors by the number of patients they see. The general rule is 15 mins per patient but OHIP doesn't care if you see three times more patients per day than normal. The doctor's clinic is in the Niagara Health Centre. See my separate review for that place. Review 2023-115

Dr. Miller has been my family ENT for over 40 years. And she is the greatest physician I have ever…read morehad the pleasure of knowing.

Dr Miller is the type of doctor people always wax sentimental about…read more The doctors of "old" who know their patients, listen to them and remember them. I went to see her for the first time a year ago and she was amazing. She explained without being condescending. She has a wonderful bedside manner. She calls with test results herself. And she personally calls at times you wouldn't expect to hear from a doctor, to answer questions I asked about. She gives honest and good advice and makes suggestions for what the primary can do and what she can do. The best possible referral I can give about her... I absolutely panicked at the thought she might retire!! Where would I go and how could I possibly find another doctor like her? So if you're looking for an ENT I strongly suggest making an appointment with Dr Robin Miller.

I went to Dr. Chmiel's practice on the recommendation of a co-worker. I went for throat pain I'd…read morehad for a year. I had had a sonogram and nothing was found. I went to Dr. Chmiel and within 15 min I had my diagnosis. Using a scope up my nose and down my throat which took 5 min in office, he showed me the video of the scoping. He showed me my septal bone spur, which caused pus to drip from my sinus down my throat, which caused my throat pain. Dr. Chmiel never pushed surgery. He advised I think about it. I said I wanted the surgery. So off to a CT scan so he could see my sinuses. Good thing I did because he found more things- enlarged adenoids and a polyp in one of my sinus cavities. I said I still wanted surgery and managed to get a date in two weeks. Dr. Chmiel removed my septal bone spur ( that's what's in the photo), removed my adenoids, and roto rooted out the polyp. I had no pain, no visible swelling. The follow ups were the day after, then one week. I found Dr. Chmiel attentive, answered all of my questions, and had a good sense of humor. If you need a septal bone spur chiseled out, Dr. Chmiel's your guy!!! The staff was great too!

Dr. Phillip Wade, MD, DDS, FRCSC, ENT specialist... and certified black belt? This doctor seems to…read morebe a jack of all trades, master of... well, all of them! I accompanied a patient to his office the other day and was amazed at how thorough Dr. Wade was. He took his time and explained everything in clear, layman's terms and was quite animated in his delivery. He is extremely personable and has a wonderful 'bedside manner', so-to-speak. It's no surprise that this doctor has so many successes in his life. We did not have to wait long past our appointment time, perhaps only 10 to 15 minutes. Overall, a pleasant experience.

Dr. Wade has retired…read more A tremendous doctor. Felt like I was visiting a country doctor 50 years ago because of the amount of time and attention given to my issues. And he explained everything so well. Clearly dr. Wade is part of that rare breed of doctor today who cares deeply for his patients.

Waste of time.

I went to Paul Young, didn't see him, which is fine, but the NP that I saw didn't do anything my PCP didn't do and immediately suggested a nasal ablation and went on a sales pitch about how Dr. Young does them in the office. Felt like they "sell" that to everyone. She also couldn't see anything concerning- so why suggest this procedure? And for the plugged ears, she suggested I get a hearing test but they don't perform them. What kind of ENT can't do a hearing test in the office? Long story short- useless and total waste of time and money. Just got a $350.00 bill, after insurance for literally nothing.
