He did explain my audiology test and the reasons for my follow up appointment with him. He was fast, mostly thorough but I did feel I was rushed in the appointment and he wasn't particularly interested in hearing my concerns or questions.

I would never go back because he is very arrogant and rude. He would repeatedly ask me what medical problems were, even though I had been seeing him regularly for my breathing problems. Once, he even started talking about medications that I don't even take before I corrected him. He has no idea what he's doing. Do yourself a favor and find someone else.

A jokester but very loud and obnoxious . Everytime we come.. He's cell phone goes off and he always takes a look at the messages and answered it once or twice while he thought I wasn't looking.. Otherwise, knows his stuff.

Dr. Dorf has been treating my children for years now and REALLY (seems to) knows his stuff ! Although, his staff is VERY unprofessional and also untrained for the field they have chosen. In our 10+ years of him, we've only had like 2 or 3 ladies that really KNOW what they are doing ! It's like they are all MA's instead of people with DEGREES anymore ???? Including is office staff (IMO one doesn't need a degree to work in an office).
