I live in Mendocino County, but could not schedule an…read moreappointment with any of the ENT doctors as all of them are scheduling for months in advance. Then I remembered Dr. Homicz, who had helped me a few years ago. He is a very popular Doctor, and for good reason. As a result he is even more busy than the rest of the pack. On this particular day, the good doctor was busy in surgery, but finished early and made time to see me. This man is The MAN. He resolved my issue in no time at all! Excellent Doctor, very knowledgeable, great "bedside manners". Can't say enough but gotta stop somewhere!

Now I have to see him again after being away, since my problem has unfortunately returned. Is there a wait to see him? Yes. Why the wait? Because he is that good.

I started seeing Dr. Schmitt in January to treat my right ear which got blown up in a horrible cold…read moreover New Year's and had sent me to the ER for a ruptured eardrum. She immediately diagnosed a severe build-up of fluid in my middle ear as the cause of the rupture and the existing discomfort I was experiencing. She talked me through the options and made me feel very comfortable with starting out with the least intrusive route of meds and waiting. After the two week wait-and-see approach which brought only slight improvement Dr. Schmitt decided to do a myringotomy which she performed expertly. There was minimal pain involved and it immediately brought relief, which got even better over the next 10 days. I feel the problem was fully resolved and I appreciated the time, concern and care which Dr. Schmitt provided.

I had a miserable experience with this ENT. My PCP thought I had a fungal infection, and he was…read moreavailable a week later so I booked the appointment. He diagnosed the problem as ear wax, and without any effort to dislodge the clog via warm water, he went straight to microsuction, digging in the ear and roughly yanking my head around to get a better angle. Not once did he ask if I was comfortable. When I told him that he was hurting me, he pushed my head back down, leaving a visible scratch on my face. I finally told him that (now that I knew the cause of the problem) I would treat it with carbamide peroxide and convinced him to put down his instruments. He made a follow-up appointment for two weeks. Two weeks later, my ear was still problematic, so I went back, this time accompanied by an observer. With another person in the room, he was on much better behavior, comporting himself appropriately and not grabbing my face as he had the first time. Completely unprofessional and a miserable experience overall. I understand that it's fun to dig stuff out of ears, but the ENT needs to keep in mind that the ears are attached to a human.

I have seen Dr. Lonergan 3 times for what was initially a chronic cough that evolved into bacterial…read moresinusitis. The only pro: he prescribed antibiotics and corticosteroids that eventually eliminated my cough (although sinusitis still remains...) My experience overall with Lonergan was disappointing. When I interacted with him during each visit, he was rushed and unconcerned about my issues. It seems as if he always tried to send me home just to follow up later a month later - milking my insurance, copay, and time. When I asked clarifying questions about the unusual, 3 week prescription of antibiotics, he never called me back and instead left brief, ambiguous responses on My Health Online. After getting a CT scan given my lingering sinus issues, he wouldn't explain what the test results meant and instead told me to see him in person again. It was at this point I no longer wanted to continue with Lonergan and would not recommend him.
