I wish I could give them more stars. Back on April 1st my son got hit in the nose playing baseball…read more Let me give a little bit more a FASTBALL that hit him square in the nose and forehead. I took him to the ER Phoenix Children's and was released because the bleeding stopped no cat scan or x-ray to see if any other damage was done. Horrible treatment in my option. I did ask about both and the doctor said he was just filling in to get paid so he does not know what he can do. The next day the school called because his bleeding started up again and could not be controlled. Tampons to the rescue. Which he had to get a pic for the 'gram. back the phoenix Children's ER. We were released when the bleeding stopped but this time a cat scan was done and again the doctors said they could do nothing this is Phoenix Children's ER in AVONDALE. we got home and at 1 am in the morning i wake up to my sons bed full of blood the bathroom floor covered he has been bleeding for about two hours. I call 911 on Goodyear Fire respond and transport him to Abreza ER. 9 hours later we get release with medical balloons in this nose to stop the bleeding keep in mind his nose was broken so the pressure was intense. To see your kid screaming in pain breaks my heart. pain medical and he can sleep. Friday morning comes early for me and i call his grandfather to come over and stay with him while I have an early morning delevery. Fast Forward to about 1PM and i get a call from my Mother in Law telling me she is going to sell her kidney to pay for a surgin to fix her grandsons nose. Ok that was crazy but she told me that Grandpa was taking my son to Arizona Breathe Free and that they would get him in but I had to get there for medical consent. I broke a couple of laws driving as fast as I could to this location. As I walked into the front office. The Doctor Gordon jumped up and said are you Dad I said yes. The next words are great let s go and called my son back. I stayed up front signing forms and getting all the paperwork finished 10 minutes later the Doc. comes up front and tells me that they are done. Doctor Gordon worked his magic in that short amount of time that 4 ER doctors could not. He took me back and explained everything to me what he did and what he was going to do on Tuesday when he can go in an operate to fix the broken nose. The Nurses and front office staff were Angels on earth. I know that this was a crazy case but if you are suffering any nose related problems. Call them you will not be disappointed.

1 Star I rarely…read moreleave 1-star reviews, so when I do, it means I was genuinely dissatisfied with my experience and would not return. To be fair, I had a positive experience with Dr. Taffet, and my son's ear tube surgery at St. Joseph's went very smoothly. However, the repeated issues I encountered with the front office staff and communication ultimately overshadowed the positives. My first experience with the office set the tone. I arrived 7 minutes late due to traffic within their parking lot while trying to manage a sick one-year-old with a 101-degree fever from recurrent ear infections and a very active two-year-old. I understand that I was late and that office policies must be followed, but the front desk employee was extremely dismissive and showed no empathy for the situation. I was turned away and told to come back later that afternoon. Another concerning experience occurred 15 days after my son's ear tube surgery. He developed what we later learned was an allergic reaction to anesthesia. When I called the after-hours line on a Saturday, I was told they only assist patients who are within 14 days of surgery. After explaining the situation, the representative eventually agreed to help but repeatedly stated that she would "get in trouble" for doing so. As a worried parent, that was not reassuring. The most frustrating experience involved my son's ongoing ear infections after tube placement. Multiple antibiotics had failed, and I left a voicemail explaining that I work night shift, sleep during the day, and I asked that my husband be contacted ASAP. No one called him that day. When I woke up and called the office, I was met with some of the rudest customer service I have experienced in healthcare. I was given no help before the office closed. My son spent the entire night awake and crying from an untreated ear infection. The next morning, we were simply told to use Ciprofloxacin ear drops that we ALREADY had at home. This information could have been communicated in under two minutes the evening before and would have saved my son a painful night. My baby developed full body hives immediately following his surgery, and we thought the cause was the Cipro ear drops, so that's why I was hesitant to give them. Turns out it was just the anesthesia, but we had no way of knowing that until we tried the Cipro drops again. I have worked in healthcare for 10 years, and what stood out most throughout these experiences was the lack of communication, empathy, and basic customer service. While I appreciated Dr. Taffet and had a positive surgical experience, the repeated issues with the office staff and follow-up care were significant enough that I would seek a different ENT provider in the future.

BE ADVISED! In my opinion and based on my one-on-one experience with Dr. Jonathan Wiggenhorn below,…read morethis is the most BILLING THIRSTY and unprofessional $$$billing mill operation I've ever dealt with! I waited 1 hour to see him in a packed office and it got worse! He provides a Sinoplasty that is only up to 80% effective (VivAir procedure is 90% fyi) and has his office minions line you up for an appointment an then when you get to see him he comes in and says "how long have you been dealing with this?" No problem but the issues is he doesn't have time to answer questions and pushed me off to staff for pricing lol. He signed me up for 2 surgeries before showing me my CT results (which I had to request that he never provided) or giving me my CT results. Not time for questions. His staff must think that because you are over 50 they can double charge you which I had to get fixed. It was so obvious this is a money scheme for Dr. Wiggenhorn and perhaps to support his required lifestyle? it was disgusting. To the point that I had to get a second opinion! The feeling they are cranking people through his offices like a whirlwind with no professional regard for anything other than cranking the $$$ press. BE ON GUARD. The VivAir procedure that Dr Jonathan Wiggenhorn does NOT offer is a 90% success rate. YOU MIGHT GET A SECOND OPINION ALL! THIS PRACTICE IN MY EXPERIENCE IS A $$$$ MONEY PRINTING PRESS THAT I FELT IS MORE INTERESTED IN $$$$$ THAN IN YOUR BEST INTEREST.

I left an earlier review about my experience with Dr. Wiggenhorn, but I have since gotten…read moreadditional and relevant information to share. I also want to share some photos (so people know that I'm not just slandering him), one from my 3D scan. I got an OTO-Scope (a very small camera that I could use to see inside my nose). The resulting picture confirmed everything that I had shared about my sinus congestion with Dr. Wiggenhorn, but WORSE. I did not just have sinus congestion, but a nasal polyp--which blocks my breathing through my left nostril when it enlarges as I lay down to sleep. This will cause all air to pass through the right nostril, which will then overtax it. It will then inflame the inside mucus membranes, completing the night's sinus congestion until I cannot breathe through my nose. When I am in an upright position, much of the blood will drain from the polyp, alleviating most of the symptoms. I've attached the photo (a screen-grab from the 3D scan and of the polyp). Please forgive the grossness of the photo of the polyp. But when I saw it, I was left wondering-- How could an ENT medical doctor fail to identify such a large source of nasal congestion? Did the decongestant ASRC used before the exam shrink it to the point of being unidentifiable? Did he just not want to operate on the polyp, which needs to be surgically removed? Was he concentrating his practice on the low-risk, lucrative procedures that could easily be done by a general practitioner doctor (i.e., sinus infection [antibiotic] and allergy [antihistamine or steroid spray])? Last, I now have an appointment with another ENT to deal with this issue.
