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.

Middle of the Road
Decent doctor for ear problems, however, my ear injuries from a MVA were complicated, add in constant tinnitus. There was essentially nothing he could do for me because of the damage. The exams were general in nature and I was not confident that I was truly examined for everything wrong. Maybe that is the nature of my injury and I have to live with it.

Have had 3 surgeries on 1 side and 1 on another side, no surgeons was able to replaced or closed the hole in my eardrum. My hearing was dramatically dropped since my last surgery from Jefferson hospital, not too mentioned fungus as well as ear infection. After going back to Jefferson so many times and they could not helped me so I seek out to Dr Bigalow. After he saw me, he said he could help me so I had the surgery on one side which was the worst. Immediately after the surgery, I could hear again. No more ear infections or fungus. He is God Sent! I’ll have the other ear operate on after my next visit for 4 months follow up.
