Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Because of really really bad sinus and allergy issues it's been 30 years since I have been able to breathe clearly through my nose, not knowing where I needed to go to seek help and the many other Doctors seen couldn't steer me in the right direction; then reading about the Sleep and Sinus Center of Georgia, was the best thing God could have let come cross my path. While everyone is different, however having a Doctor that knows there practice and what there doing is key along with being kind, gental and caring and going the extra mile to make sure you're okay is God sent 2019. Family, extended family, friends and general public if you're experiencing problems with your siuns and/or sleeping you're in the right place, keep your appointments and don't let anything get in your way you're in wonderfully blessed hands. Thank you Dr. Edwards.

I had a long history of chronic sinusitis. CT scan proved my septum was malformed from many sports-related breaks. He suggested reforming the septum, taking my tonsils and adenoids and I elected to have a small cosmetic procedure alongside. It was a 7 hour surgery!! Something went badly wrong in my 2nd post-op, and I began to bleed out!! Next day 2nd surgery and he took "the rest" of my tonsils out he missed in the prior surgery! 2 more weeks to recover! Still have issues with nosebleeds!!

Dr. Edwards is an EXCELLENT trustworthy Doctor who truly cares about his patients. After years of seeing various doctors he figured out I had immune system deficentcy and sent me to a specialist who put me on IVIG therapy. Doctor Edwards gave me my life back. He also did surgery to correct sinus issues and improved my breathing. Thank you "Doc"! He treats patients like human being not just a number.

Dr. Edwards suggested tests and procedures (CT scan and balloon sinuplasty) for my chronic allergy problem. After feeling unsure about his hasty decision to decide on these interventions, I visited two other doctors (a generalist and another ENT specialist). Both doctors laughed at and shook their heads at Dr. Edward's recommendations, suggesting that my allergy issues were not severe enough to warrant invasive and pricey interventions that Dr. Edwards suggested.

No stars because he is a money hungry doctor who does not wear gloves when doing procedures. He recommended surgery just from looking at my new patient paperwork and didn't examine me first! He also wanted to do a procedure that the Mayo Clinic doesn't recommend unless there are chronic issues that do not respond well to treatment, and I didn't come to the office with a chronic condition.
