My first visit to Dr. Sharri and it was very satisfying and quite pleasant. To start, the office staff is beyond polite, friendly and extremely accommodating. My appointment was 9:45 and I was seen by Dr. Sharri at 9:50. He was very comforting and caring, attentive and friendly. He listened to my concerns and understood exactly what I was feeling. After his examination and also my hearing test he explained the results in detail. He prescribed meds that were needed and made sure to tell me to call him in a weeks (or anytime at all) if I was still in discomfort . I highly recommend Dr. Sharri and he and his staff deserve higher than a 5 Star rating.

Dr. Shaari and his office staff are superior to any I have experienced. His knowledge is unquestionable, together with his willingness to go the extra mile, puts him in a class by himself.

I had been suffering with a chronic sore throat & cough for some time. After diligently searching for a ENT I found Dr. Sharri & he lives up to his amazing reviews. I’ve never meet such a INTELLIGENT doctor, with such knowledge in the field who treats patients almost like family. Aside from his impressive background, Dr. Sharri, has impeccable bedside manner. I remember asking him how he was doing & his response was “ I won’t be good until I get you better”. I just want to say, Thank you Dr. Sharri for being an incredible human being & getting down to the root of my issue. God really blessed the field of medicine when he created you. ~Monica

Modest wait and super fast exam! Limited conversation and interaction. Felt like an assembly line! Rushed...
