Terrible. I wanted to know what my options were but he didn't care. Felt like he pushed surgery. He also didn't seem comfortable with that he was saying. If he had doubts in the procedure then why would I trust my child with him? Just be honest. If you don't feel comfortable with doing a procedure then don't play Russian Roulette with my child!

Love love LOVE Dr. Baranano. My daughter's tonsils were very large and causing sleep apnea. He ordered a sleep study and very promptly ordered surgery for her within 2 days time. She used to snore very loudly and stop breathing in her sleep for up to 10 seconds at a time, all night long. Three days Post-Op and she's sleeping quietly and peacefully now! Can't say enough good things about Dr. B!

Dr. B is a wonderful dr. I trusted him to perform surgery on my 2 year old. He was very good at keeping us informed. We pick a great ENT, I would take any of my children to him.

From the first time we went to his clinic, Dr Baranano made our teenage daughter smile and even once laugh. He is pretty funny which helped put her at ease but honestly made me nervous at first. Though when it was time to get down to business he was serious and thoughtful telling us the surgery and treatment needed for her thyroid condition. He communicated at her level and at ours so we all understood. It was impressive and my initial nervousness was gone. After surgery he had regular follow up and even called a couple times to our home since we're almost a 2 hour drive to the hospital. My daughter is doing great. She says Dr B is the best doctor she's ever had. He is a funny man and so very kind and genuine. We hope to never need his care again but if you do, know that you'll be in excellent hands.
