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.

The Best
My husband had a severe nose bleed. Needed to use a rhino rocket for a few days. Removal was painful and Dr. Othieno was so gentle and kind. She took her time removing the packing to ease the discomfort. She is our 'go to' for any future issues.

Best ENT in the Frederick area.
I dealt with sinus pressure and headaches for over 5 years. I was daily taking sudafe to the point that I was anxious all the time. I visited 4 different ENT doctors before Dr. Othieno. Those Drs. did not care for me and didn’t try to find the root of what was causing me to be constantly congested. They all keep saying it was due to my allergies and “ sinusitis “ On October 2022 my primary doctor gave me a referral to Dr. Othieno. I scheduled my first appointment because due to the congestion my ears were clogged. Dr. Othieno did a CT scan. The reason why I was congested all the time it was due to a deviated septum. Long story short. She did surgery on July 2023. It took me a few weeks after the surgery for me to start noticing the results. It has been about 5 months since I had the surgery and I am feeling better than ever. I can work out without feeling out of breath. I sleep better. I breathe SO MUCH BETTER. No more sudafe. Glad I found her.
