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.

Tinnitis had been bothering me after a weekend. My dr sent me to West TN ENT Clinic. Dr. Wainscott came in and said my hearing was perfect so nothing was wrong. I was so mad when I left. 3 yrs later I had to go to Vanderbilt because of and tennis ball size tumor in my brain which grew from another tumor on my ear nerve. I told the story to the ENT at Vandy and she said what he did was wrong- Tinnitus doesn't start in a day unless its dangerous. My hearing is still perfect after ear nerve surgery

After two separate office visits, he didn't seem to want to help me with my problem of noise in my ears. Didn't take my blood pressure or ask many questions, just shrugged if off as getting older. I didn't care for his attitude at all and definitely won't be going back!
