Eric Stein's Online Review Report Card

Great work!

Very gentle and easy to understand what was being done and next steps. The office is very busy but I was seen promptly.

I would leave zero stars but that wasn’t an option. I asked Dr Stein to fix a small hole that was causing a whistle in my nose. He put a septal button in which was so large that it made me miserable. Headaches, constant sneezing feeling; it was awful. I have NEVER had any sinus issues, no history of drug use; just a tiny hole. My physician first saw it and called it ‘tiny’. Dr. Stein took out the button in his office and left my nose permanently RUINED. I have a hole in my septum the size of a NICKEL!!! I have virtually NO septum separating my nostrils. He never told me that I would end up like this and he certainly never told me that he would be making a tiny hole HUGE to ‘fix’ a whistle. This doctor seemed a little too eager to perform surgery and I should have listened to my gut on this one. I trusted this doctor and I feel mislead, unimportant and he won’t even address the condition he left my nose in.

Excellent, he asked me to tell him what was going on. Reassured me of my fears. Took time to explain everything to me. Was courteous to my son as well, who brought me there.I was very impressed with the entire staff, very friendly and helpful.

Today I had my first visit with Dr.Stein. I had gone to urgent care for a very painful earache and loss of hearing. I was given antibiotic drops and to see primary care if not any better. Saw PCP who removed earwax and made an appt fo ENT for a month out. Went back to PCP for a physical a week later and told her I still had hearing loss. She told me there was no infection and to stop eardrops. Dr. Stein actually listened to me, diagnosed infection, removed more wax did a culture and removed infected drainage. He was professional and knowledgeable

Dr. Stein is the best-all that you hope a doctor will be: really good at what he does (he fixed a problem two other specialists couldn't), kind, compassionate, and an impressively good listener (He didn't come in looking at a chart in his hand while you spoke, or seem fidgety, waiting for you to stop talking. On the contrary, after a friendly hello, he immediately sat face-to-face, directly in front of me and waited for me to speak, fully engaged until I finished speaking). Highly recommend him.

Dr. Stein was the 4th ENT surgeon I have tried to get some relief from sinus polyps in 7 years. I am so grateful to have found him. This is my second surgery for my sinus problems. As soon as I woke up from the surgery I could breath. The remarkable thing about it was that I had stints in place and could breath better than I have in many years. Thank you Dr. Stein.

I waited 45 & 30 minutes for each of my last two appointments. Then, in the room, I was lucky if I got 5 minutes (at a $60 co-pay each time!). One appointment was a follow-up for a CT that he had ordered. The point of the appointment was to make a diagnosis and plan based on the scans, but he "wasn't able to log into the portal" & told me I should've brought the scans myself! I went again for a new issue and was totally blown off. Just likes to listen to himself talk & not consider the patient!
