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.

Gentle approach
We appreciate Dr Williamson’s care for our toddler. Took great care of him during his and after his mastoidectomy and we are happy we were referred over. Wonderful approach. Thank you!

Cholesteatoma Removal, and Restoration of Hearing.
I was diagnosed with a cholesteatoma that destroyed my ability to hear in my left ear. I lost 90% of my hearing. I am a musician and also a DJ so this was very devastating to me. My case required 2 surgeries. 1 to remove the tumor. 2nd to restore and rebuild my 3 middle ear bone chain with an Incus replacement . Dr Williamson was able to remove the tumor during the first surgery. 6 months later, I had the 2nd surgery to restore my hearing. I am now around 85% or better hearing when I was around 10% when I started. 1 year out now from 2nd surgery and my tumor gone and I am back to being a DJ. Long journey but cant think of anyone else that stood by my side the whole time like Dr Williamson and his team did. Can't thank Dr Williamson and his team of absolute legends enough for helping me get my life and what I love to do back on track.

Cochlear implant
He was very reassuring and answered all of our questions in a way we could understand that made us feel very comfortable to go ahead with the procedure of a cochlear implant for our daughter.

Glomus tympaticum tumor
For several years, I experienced a severe throbbing in my ear. I went to several ear specialists, none of whom were able to relieve me of my symptoms. I later discovered that a tumor in my ear was the cause of the problem. My condition affected my sleep, mood and overall well-being. I finally ended up with Dr. Williamson. I could immediately tell that this was the surgeon who could end my nightmare. I was right. Dr. Williamson removed the tumor and I am finally rid of the noise that invaded my ear for so long. Dr. Williamson continues to monitor my recovery, which he has done regularly over the last couple of months. I am very happy to have found such a skilled surgeon.

I am so thankful I found Dr Williamson. After having a particularly bad experience with another ENT and having a surgery that made me worse, I was distraught. I had a CSF leak and a condition called SCDS, and it's extremely difficult to find a doctor that can properly diagnose and treat either, and most end up going to UCLA. Through some digging on the Facebook CSF and SCDS support groups, Dr Williamson was recommended by a few others. I finally made an appointment and was so glad I did. He was very thorough in his diagnosis and did all the necessary tests, and wanted to cover all bases to be sure of the issue before performing surgery. He is very honest and caring and has great beside manner. He performed surgery along with Dr Ramsey Ashour, and although I am still recovering, I feel like I will finally get part of my life back.

Dr. Williamson is seriously one of the best physicians I've ever seen, everyone in his office is extremely professional and he has a great bedside manner, he was able to fit me into his schedule the same day my pcp called for an urgent matter. He has very steady hands and made sure I was comfortable during my mini procedure. You are truly the best, please stay great
