The doctor was nice. The staff was nice. But every time I've been there, I've had to wait an hour and a half, which is unacceptable. My time is just as important as that doctor's. And it seems like they don't care because, you know, he makes everybody wait. They over staff. They overbook their appointments. Other than that, I think it was a success. But overbooking, you know, is not acceptable. People that sit in that waiting room, you know, they pay their money to see him, you know, had the right to their time at the appointment. If not, what's the point of an appointment? Thank you very much.

I wish Dr. Plotnick would stop wearing masks. Double masks. I have hearing loss in both ears & depend on being able to read lips as part of my communication. He seems soft spoken naturally & the masks really muffle his voice. I actually need to bring someone with me to be an extra set of ears on my behalf. I really do like the office staff & have no problem continuing my care at this practice.

For the second time trying to see Dr Plotnick we were told by staff 30 mins after the appointment time that the Dr was approximately 1 hour behind. There were 4 people ahead of my Dad, so it would probably have been longer than 1 hour. We opted to leave and reschedule. My Dad has Dementia and things like this are kind of a set back for him. To compound matters, we were there as a follow up to physical therapy which Dr Plotnick arranged. Now, if we chose to continue, there will be over a month lapse in any progress my Dad may have made by going to therapy. The staff were as kind and professional as they could have been. Shout out to those ladies!

I was skipped over. He took patients before me. I went to.the front desk,then he proceeded to come to my room and try to act nice. If my throat and ears and everything looks good,why prescribe me antibiotics. I'm happy that he is gonna get my scan scheduled. I have a hole in my septum. No it's not from drugs. I haven't had great experiences with ENT Drs
