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.

Brilliant!
Dr. Ashmead diagnosed and surgically corrected my sinus issue that had persisted for years. I’m kicking myself for not seeing her sooner.Had a whole host of symptoms that had just slowly declined over the years due to a chronic fungal infection. After surgery, all symptoms that had plagued me for years (facial pressure, tooth pain, breath, discharge, hacking, lack of sleep, stress, inability to breathe out of one sinus, etc)were eliminated and I haven’t felt this good in years. Truly shocking just how much havoc my sinus issues were causing. Dr. Ashmead was thorough, professional, kind and took time to answer any and all questions I had. Can’t recommend her enough. So thankful for her and her great staff. If you are having any sinus issues at all, don’t hesitate to get in and see her. Absolutely fantastic experience.

Great ENT
Very smart, knowleable but still laid back, and comfortable in her role which puts you at ease. Very neat orderly office with professional friendly staff. Had minor mouth surgery for biopsy/removal of a suspect lesion and went flawlessly. I highly recommend her, and is on my list of doctors for my family care. I am 76 male and very picky about my health care.

Excellent care!
Dr Ashmead took the time to understand my concerns and help me decide on a plan that worked best for me and was optimal with my insurance. She performed an in-office procedure, and I’ve felt so much better! I can actually breathe now during allergy season. Amazing!

I have had issues with nasal polypus, aspirin sensitivity, and asthma for several years. I have been to several doctors. A co-worker recommended Dr. Ashmead last year and OMG. After our 1st visit, she new right away what was happening with me. She is the 1st doctor who really listened to me and worked with me and insurance to come up with a plan to treat me. She is amazing, really listens and cares about helping you. I can not say enough about her. She is my ENT hero!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Ashmead for about three years. My difficulty involved collection of fluid in my ear due to malfunctioning Eustachian tubes which led to dizziness and difficulty flying on airplanes. She considers each patient individually, deciding on what options may best help solve the problem. Over the course, she inserted a ventilation tube in my ear on two separate occasions. This was good for about 9 months at a time. Then last year she suggested outpatient Eustachian tube dilation. What a remarkable change this produced! She takes an unhurried, compassionate approach with each of her patients and explains in detail what options are available. She is absolutely the best ENT I have ever had, and I have been recommending her to friends from the very beginning.

I absolutely love Dr. Ashmead. She helped me greatly for the 1 1/2 years we were trying to get rid of my serious sinus problems. She is so patient and very compassionate. She is not "just" a doctor. She is someone that cares and continues to research and gets down to the root of the problem. She is one of the finest doctors I have had. I would recommend her to anyone that is having sinus problems. She can HELP YOU A LOT!

Dr. Ashmead is an excellent physician! She performed a frenectomy on our 5 year old son and took amazing care of him. Her bedside manner, approachability, and kindness were second to none. Her knowledge and expertise made us feel confident in selecting her as our surgeon. She provided us with the highest level of care throughout our experience. We highly recommend Dr. Ashmead for any ENT needs!

The surgery wentn great and there were no problems in the recovery. She continues to work closely with me for all my ENT needs.
