Initial visit to address ringing in ears. Excellent visit. Dr. Van Horn also addressed my allergy issues and hearing test results.

I have been plagued with sinusitis since being a teenager and treated by countless ENT's both in private practice and at major medical centers in New York and New Orleans. Dr. Van Horn was extremely helpful to me and I recommend him to anyone seeking a smart, patient-focused ENT for their upper respiratory issues. He is a real prize.

I wonder if he gets a bonus for signing people up for CT scans. Didn't even call me after mine. I had to call him. At which time he said there was no sinus infection - duh. He originally told me not to go in for the scan if I had a sinus infection - so of course there wasn't one. He basically dismissed all my issues. I got nothing taken care of and it cost me $800.

Hearing test conducted before wax removal. Maybe this should be reversed
