    Dr. Newberry is an excellent doctor. I came to him in December of 2022, having had pulsatile…read moretinnitus in my left ear for six months. Before meeting with Dr. Newberry, I had seen several other providers (an NP, an MD, and a PA) through other organizations and they all either dismissed the seriousness of my symptoms as anxiety and allergies, or misdiagnosed me with an ear infection or Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. Dr. Newberry's approach was completely different. He was the first doctor who actually took me seriously. He was immediately concerned because it turns out persistent one-sided pulsatile tinnitus can be a symptom of a very serious and potentially dangerous condition called a dural AV fistula; however, while he mentioned the possibility of a dAVF (among other conditions), he also didn't jump to conclusions. He was very thorough. Over the course of a few months, we did some blood work, scans, and tests to figure out what might be causing it. When one of those scans finally came back abnormal, Dr. Newberry provided an immediate referral for me to see a neuroradiologist who eventually diagnosed me with a dural AV fistula. Dural AV fistulas are rare and complex, and I say this to point out that Dr. Newberry didn't let this deter him; he didn't discount a dAVF as a possible diagnosis, despite the fact it was unlikely because I didn't have any headaches at the time (a hallmark symptom of dural AV fistulas). I'm so grateful to him because other providers obviously dismissed the possibility that I had such a rare condition, probably because it was simply unlikely. Had I not seen Dr. Newberry, it's very possible this condition might have gone undiagnosed and led to a stroke or brain hemorrhage in a decade or so; alternately, it could have eventually led to a misdiagnosis of dementia or other neurological conditions due to the impact it can have on cognitive functioning. In general, Dr. Newberry is very easy to talk to and has a great bedside manner. He's a good listener, and I would describe him as highly competent and on the cutting edge of ENT medicine. As someone who has been repeatedly let down by medical providers over the years, I find myself trusting his opinion. He can see the big picture as well as the details, and never loses sight of the fact that his patient is a human being. My experience with Rhode Island ENT as an organization has also been great. I have found it very easy to schedule appointments with them. The receptionists and medical assistants are pleasant and competent. They send appointment reminder text messages which is helpful. I have never had any issue with them forgetting to order a prescription or send in a referral, or any hiccups with insurance. Though I do remember experiencing some initial frustration trying to schedule an appointment as a new patient due to the call routing, since I've become a patient, I've found it very easy to work with them.

    This review is strictly for the Mendon Road Cumberland office…read more Three times my son had appointments there. Three times the rude, incompetent person at the desk denied that we even had the appointments. When I showed her the appointment card, she denied that it was real. Twice so far this year, the exact same thing happened to my 92 year old father. The first time it happened he asked the woman to give him a SIGNED appointment card. She signed the card "Lynn." Today he went to his appointment. She told him he didn't have an appointment at this time and that they have never had an employee named "Lynn." This has happened to Every Single Person I know who has dealt with this office. It is not an isolated incident. Read the other reviews here about the rude unresponsive staff. Dr DellaTorre is ok but the staff here deserves to be fired. Incompetent, dishonest, gaslighting, and rude. An if this behavior isn't intentional it only proves that they are also idiots. AVOID AVOID AVOID. Do not give a cent to these insufferable crooks. I welcome any response from this office. Be aware that I will be calling Every Day to verify the appointment that I wish my father hadn't made. And recording the calls for quality control purposes

    One of the two Dr who we saw was basically useless and just referred to the other Dr in the same…read moreoffice. There was no urgency at all despite the real possibility that she has permanent 100% hearing loss. The condition requires quick treatment which is the greatest indicator for positive outcome. Wasted weeks instead of starting on treatment immediately. Then the front desk staff was not scheduling appointments according to the strict protocol that the Dr laid out, and they made appts that we already knew would be impossible to keep due to availability of the Rx from the compounding pharmacy. They said make the appt anyway, then we had to cancel and they have not called back to reschedule. Meanwhile her condition becomes more severe. Horrible awful quality of care, completely useless. Only go here if you want your condition to worsen or you have no other option.

    We tried calling this place be prepared for a half hour wait time just to get to speak to anybody…read moredo not press pounds for the text messaging system. It is not faster than calling. They will tell you they'll get back to you in 1 to 3 days with an answer and then when you actually do get the staff, there's no personal touch you can tell it's they're just like reading a script for everything. They reply with. It's actually kind of sad. There's a doctor at this location Dr. Duff, who is a cut above the rest amazing it's just to get to him. It's like storming Guantánamo Bay. Best of luck to others that have to go here.
