Anyone who grew up with "The Brady Bunch" knows that being a stinker is the absolute worst thing ever ("Bobby is such a stinker!" "Marcia, you know I don't like THAT WORD!!"). My gene pool (lookin' at you, Dad) has made me prone to allergies and my nose seems more than happy to react to whatever in the atmosphere it doesn't like. Reactions range from mild pouting to a full-on revolt. On the bright side, I haven't had a cold in 18 years, so I guess my nose likes me sometimes. Moody little stinker.... Despite the Challenge (note the capital "C") that my nose presents, Dr. Pomerantz has helped it cooperate better with the world around it. There is no cure for what ails it, but there are many drugs/treatments/options out there for people like me, and Dr. Pomerantz has always given me good advice and recommendations. My nose will never be perfect, but it's definitely much less pissed off now. Really, can you give less than 5 stars to someone who not only improves your quality of life, but is also super nice, even when he pulls gross crud out of your nose for you? Dr. Pomerantz also cleans ears (I know because I heard him say, "Let's clean your ears!" to a patient in the next room...I should be a detective!). If I ever need an ear cleaning, he's totally my guy. Although if I come to him with more problems, he might think I am stalking him. But it's likely this review already took care of that.

I'm never going back. The visit was due a stuffy nose unrelated to a cold. My entire visit was twenty minutes--15 of it was spent waiting. My bill was $880. Supposedly I had 2 surgeries done in 20 minutes. A minute to look up my nose and a peek into my ear canal. He's great. but ASK if he's going to do anything that will cost more than your additional copay. Because you figure an ENT looking up your nose was normal. Not a surgery that costs $500. Their billing department is a mess. The visit was over a year ago. It's unpleasant getting a new bill over a year later painfully reminding me that this was a very expensive 20 minute visit, stating I actually owe even more than initially billed. While the doctor himself is great, you still need to deal with his office. Never going back.

Shame on me for not asking if the endoscopy was free. I walked out of the visit after paying my co-pay thinking that was that. A week later I received a bill for almost $700 of which my insurance covered less than half. I called the doctor's billing office five times over the next few weeks and was always told someone would call me back after speaking with the doctor. Nobody ever did. Finally, the doctor agreed to knock 20% off the bill as a "professional courtesy." Sorry, but true courtesy would have included an upfront description of the price of the procedure. Beware!

Finally, a friend told me to get a second opinion and I lucked into an appointment with Dr. Layland. His manner is delightful, and his attentiveness to the issue was extraordinary. He ordered 2 different tests at Lutheran General, and an appointment with a speech therapist. After all of these years, I finally have some answers to my problem. I'm incredibly grateful that Dr. Layland is as thorough and compassionate as he is. And I'm grateful that I got this second opinion! Thank you very much, Dr. Layland!

My son has seen him a few times due to breathing issues which began at birth. Dr. Walner diagnosed him very quickly and was kind, patient and provided a great deal of information regarding the diagnoses, next steps and follow-up requirements. Surgery took place a year ago and due to other issues, Dr Walner partnered with another surgeon to perform the surgeries at the same time which was such a relief. The surgery went quickly and we were kept informed the entire time. We recently had another follow-up and again, he was great. There is a reason he is such a well-known Doctor.
