My Sister saw Dr. Creely about 30 years ago and he was as wonderful now as he was then. He saw my 4 year old son for the first time just two weeks ago for an allergy test and the male nurse who actually performed the test was also excellent. My son was very comfortable and wasn't put through any unnecessary stress. Overall Dr. Creely is HIGHLY experienced, great bedside manner and supremely knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone! My son will go back in two weeks to have his adenoids removed and tubes placed in both ears (by Dr. Creely himself) and I plan to leave a review then as well.

My daughter has been a patient of Dr. Creely for many years now. He is one of the most caring doctors that you will ever meet. He takes time to make sure that you understand what need thinks is going on with you and then asks if you understand him and asks if you have any questions. I think whether a patient is young or old they will find Dr. Creely works well with any age of patient.

Very knowledgeable. Explained exactly what needed to be done to the eardrum and sketched out exactly what he would do in the surgery, for better understanding. My husband showed up at his Norton office unannounced a week after the surgery because he was leaving town but was still nauseous and dizzy ---- Dr. Creely actually saw him on the spot. No charge, just took a quick look, explained the healing process again, and made us feel so much better.
