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.

Waste of my time
The length of time it took front-desk staff to write a name and number on a sticky note and hand it to me was longer than the length of time I actually had with Villano. Since I had actual medical concerns rather than an interest in plastic surgery, he tried very hard to quickly pass me off to a different ENT. He asked me questions and immediately interrupted me as I started to answer. He wouldn't listen to my primary concern instead using a minor concern as an excuse to refer me elsewhere. Worst of all, in spite of COVID, and the mask-requirement signs on his own clinic's door, as soon as he entered my exam room, he pulled his own mask down below his chin and kept it there even when I repeatedly reminded him that I'm on immunosuppression.

Wasted time and money. He only cares about plastic surgery and making money off of you. If you have any ENT issues, DO NOT GO TO HIM.

Dr. Villano was great in doing the cancer removal and removal of lymph nodes on my husband. He was so kind and wanted to help to make things as easy as possible for him. When it was time to sew up his face he went out of his way to get it done in a timely manner that worked for us. Would recommend him to all.

I had been seeing many doctors over a 17 year period for severe pains in my throat. Many tests and scopes of my throat, none of the doctors could find anything that was causing the pain. Dr. Villano researched and found something that might be the reason for my condition. Dr. Villano referred me to a Surgeon at OHSU that had expertise in this area. Dr. Schindler confirmed what Dr. Villano found. Dr. Schindler did surgery May of 2017 to remove a 2 centimeter growth in my throat. No problems now

Dr. Villano did a terrible job on my wife's nose surgery, we had to go over to Oregon Health Sciences to have it fixed. It required several trips over and the expenses of motel and meals all out of pocket. Try to avoid this practitioner if you possibly can!

From the point of the original contact I have been very satisfied and pleased with his manner and his procedures. I believe he did a super job with the surgery performed and the follow up. I would highly, and have highly, recommended to others his office and his expertise. Ken Lydy

I had sinus surgery with Dr. Villano after a Dentist had probed a back molar and introduced bacteria into my maxillary sinus. Several other physicians had been unable to clear up my chronic infection. I had never had a sinus infection previously so was unaware of the symptoms or seriousness of my situation. Dr. Villano was able to take me to surgery and clean out the sinus and I was very happy with the outcome. I would highly recommend him for any ear, nose, sinus or throat concerns.

I was able to make an appointment with Dr. Villano quickly. The staff was friendly and helpful as was Dr. Villano. I came in for pain in my sinuses. My condition was diagnosed quickly and explained to me thoroughly, medication was prescribed and I was given explicit instructions. Dr. Villano and his staff were wonderful care givers and I would recommend his office for any ear, nose or throat issues.

I went to Dr. Villano for sinus headaches. He sat down next to me & I thought that he really wanted to get a handle on my symptoms & issue. In the process though, he must have yawned 15 times during the course of my visit. I was shocked that this happened and said nothing. I should have asked if I was boring him. I never had a doctor do that to me in my life.
