My mom had torn the rubber ear bud on one of her hearing aids. The original provider had become…read morevery unhelpful. Once the hearing aids were paid for, their response to a request for service was a monotone appointment only, we can offer you one in two weeks. It was a simple repair. The nice folks at Coastal told me to come right over, that although they work on appointments, they would squeeze me in. Once there and in no time at all they replaced the ear bud and sent me on my way. I would have been happy to pay and offered to do so. They did the repair promptly, at no charge and I was not even a regular customer. I was very please. It is a lot easier to help mom when she can hear me. Any way, I know where to go when I break down and get hearing aids for myself. Bill W

They answer all my questions and go over test results while taking care of my hearing aids when they had issues. They all make my appointments a pleasure and not a hardship. Recently I went for a hearing test and to get my hearing aids fixed. Dr Bride is no longer there as she's now taking caring of the business which is quite understandable. My Hearing tests were done fine and my hearing aids were fixed and tuned up properly. All was good and mission was accomplished. So 5 stars it still is. I highly recommend Adept.

It's unfortunate that I have to write a negative review because I genuinely liked Dr. Marlowe, but…read moremy experience with the billing department has been extremely unacceptable. I had a surgical procedure on October 16th involving a middle ear injection to address eustachian tube dysfunction. This procedure had been scheduled months in advance. A day before my the surgery date, Dr. Marlowe's office contacted me and required a $450 out-of-pocket payment for the injection, stating they would work with my insurance afterward to assist with reimbursement. I paid this amount. On the morning of surgery, I arrived at the surgery center at 6:00 a.m. and was informed that I would also need to pay a $1,200 surgery center fee because it had not been submitted to my insurance for pre-authorization. The office had several months to obtain authorization but had not done so - to my expense. I was told that if I did not pay the $1,200 that morning, the procedure would need to be rescheduled. After waiting months with intermittent hearing in one ear, I felt I had no choice but to pay. It has now been four months, and I have not been reimbursed for either charge due to repeated billing errors. My insurance company has issued multiple denials based on incorrect coding, missing documentation, and failure to submit required retro-authorization forms. Each time I follow up, they tell me "it's resolved on their end." It's "resolved" because I paid it! Unless I consistently pursue updates myself, no action is taken. I carry excellent insurance coverage, and reimbursement should not be difficult. The issue is not coverage -- it is the repeated failure to properly submit documentation and carelessness of the office because they are not out the $1,650, I am.

Zero Stars I made an appointment with Dr. Marlowe for FESS…read moreendoscopic sinus surgery. I've had chronic sinusitis for years. I have radiology reports back at least ten years stating "grossly deviated septum with spur" and was told I may have skull base tumors. I simply wanted the procedure to clear my sinuses. I brought CT scans, MRI, even my laptop with dicom medical imaging reader. He was rude, had his medical assistant open up the images in another room and didnt go over them with me, despite me bringing my laptop and disc player into the exam room. Despite knowing I need a FESS, despite my insurance already approving the procedure, he came back into the room and told me I was fine and didnt need the FESS. I was very surprised because I went to the appointment with the intend on scheduling surgery. I said, "what about my deviated septum, can you fix it" and he looked surprised and LIED to me (his facial movements and eyes let me know he was lying) and says, "its not that bad". I also brought along my medication list. He saw I already take 40mg of Protonix for GERD, and yet the only thing he did do was write me a second Rx for Protonix, that I didnt need. This was a waste of my time, waste of $45 copay, waste of health insurance payout. Do not beLIEve the 5 star reviews as he pays people to write them. Worthless. This guy Marlowe is worthless. Find another ENT. EDIT: to add the CT Scan from 2021 he said "looked fine" has this Radiology report: "septal deviation, convex, airway obstruction 50 - 75% and septal spur". A simple google search: "A convex septal deviation with 50-75% airway obstruction and a septal spur indicates a significant deviation of the nasal septum, likely causing noticeable breathing difficulties and potentially other issues like sinus infections. The deviation, especially when combined with a septal spur, can create a significant narrowing of the nasal passages, leading to impaired airflow." This doctor, Dr. Marlowe is a loser who is afraid to do ENT surgery. AVOID HIM. EDIT #2. When I showed Marlowe the Afrin/Lidocaine nasal spray that ENT Associates of Manatee gave me a few years ago, he looked stupid and asked me why they would give something like that to me. IDIOT. Please google: ENT Afrin/lidocaine. Avoid this guy.
