Great detail and set up of expectations.

The greatest experience at a Dr. Office

Dr. Helfner & her two nurses were awesome. Dr. H took time to get to dig into my very long medical history. She listened to my concerns and then when it was her turn to explain she did it so thoroughly. Everything was so clear and if it wasn’t she took the time to explain it all.

Absolutely one of the best medical experiences I have ever had. Organized, clean, attentive, kind an

I have been here 2 times once with Dr. Miller and a second time with Dr. Hefner. Both were extremely friendly, attentive, personable and caring. Every person I encountered from the front desk to nursing staff were by far the most caring individuals I have ever experienced in a medical office. I truly mean you guys are doing it right and are second to none. I will highly recommend ENT and Allergy Associates to anyone. Thank You Tom

Perfect

Dr Helfner and the nurse that assisted me provided everything I look for in a doctors visit. Not only were they attentive and helpful, they answered any question I had. This will now be my permanent place of residency for any allergy related problems.
