Dr.Shaheen Michael Counts is the best ENT doctor who came to the Sheboygan WI Prevea clinic. He is a very talented and knowledgeable doctor. I am so happy I had a chance to visit him for my long-time issue that no one else could figure out. Thank you very much, super doctor!!!

Dr. Counts is beyond amazing. When you have an appointment, he will spend the whole scheduled period with you, if need be. He took time to explain all the details of my issues and procedure in depth. I never felt rushed, and he always asked if I have any other questions. I immediately felt at ease and confident in his expert medical care. He is just terrific, very knowledgeable, sensitive and informative… Dr. Counts is a wonderful surgeon, and I feel immensely grateful to have had such a successful surgery. He made sure I had direct contact with him post surgery, and follow-up. He was working as a traveling specialist, in an area in need of doctors. I thought this was extremely considerate of him, to make sure he was reachable. I am so glad he was in my provider network and would highly recommend him anyone. I am feeling amazingly appreciative and relieved my breathing is clear, for the first time in more than a year. Thank-you for healing me, Dr. Counts!

Dr. Counts ' treatment consisted in identifying and removing a small growth from my vocal cord. The result--once healing was complete--was perfect relief of some distressing symptoms. Dr. Counts took time to insure I knew each step of the measures being taken, and scheduled two follow-up appointments to insure healing was complete. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to any acquaintance.
