Dr. Messenger performed a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy on my adult son. He is a phenomenal doctor and a kind and caring person. He is exactly the doctor we were hoping for. He is friendly, professional, very experienced, and thorough, and I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for an experienced ENT with a wonderful bedside manner that they can feel 100% confident in. He explained what he was going to do and put my son, who is generally quite nervous about doctor visits and procedures, immediately at ease. He is intuitive, responsive, and caring, and he did a wonderful job with my son's surgery. I can't recommend him enough! He is an exceptional doctor!

Dr. Messenger is the absolute best doctor with the best bedside manner. I am a professional touring musician and suffered from terrible sinus infections for years that Doctor Messenger always was immediately available to treat. He cares SO much about his patients. I finally decided to do the surgery to correct my sinuses with him since he is really the only doctor I would ever trust. I have been healthy and feeling better than ever for months. He changed my life and is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Thank you Dr. Messenger for all you've done for me.

I have been a patient of Dr. Messenger's for over 14 years. He was instrumental in finally having an answer to numerous health issues I was experiencing by diagnosing my chronic acid reflux/Gerd within minutes of seeing me. He has been there to constantly reassure and treat me for any ent issues and I appreciate the confidence I feel after having had a visit to his office. His nurse Maureen is calming, confident and complete with preparing all info proceeding your visit. I would, and have, recommended Dr. Messenger to friends and family as I have complete trust in his knowledge and ability as a otolaryngologist.

Dr. Messenger and his medical assistant, Maureen, have always made my experience a great one. After several unsuccessful visits to other doctors, Dr. Messenger was the first physician who helped me with sinus issues. He and Maureen are caring, kind, yet professional. I feel very lucky 11

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Dr. Messenger for several years. He has treated and operated on both my daughters for their tonsils and chronic illnesses associated with tonsillitis. He is very caring and really relates to his patients in a comforting bedside manner.
