Our visit was fantastic. My child has sensory issues and wasn't able to wear shoes that day. Nobody was pressed agout it. The doctor and med student were amazing with my child and spoke in easy to understand terms. I was given plenty of information and reasonable choices for treatment. It was a fantastic experience and I will recommend Children's ENT to others.

Our provider was incredibly kind! The process, from start to finish, was much faster than expected.

No, because this is a hospital that gives you confidence. They help and protect and are on top of the care of people. I recommend it. It's a hospital you can trust. They help and support you always, and are always on top of the care of your children. I recommend it 100% for others to take their kids there so they can be helped. Thanks to the doctors for helping us and for supporting me.
