ENT and Allergy Associates

This place is a complete joke. I’m been going there for few years now with the same symptom.
And each time they tell me different story. I was finally told to take a complete allergy test to see if I might be allergic to something. I did that, and they can’t find crap.
The doctor I usually see is Dr. Gerald Suh. I He was not available on my most recent visit, so I opted for whomever was available.
I ended up with dr Wakefield. Her assistant is rude and can’t answer simple questions. When dr Wakefield came in, she’s just as bad. She was rude and instead of finding out what’s wrong with me, she just tell me a bunch of BS. She was more interesting in me buying Prilosec and Neilmed.
The whole time I was there explaining my symptom, all she tells me is to try Prilosec and If I own a set of Neilmed Sinugator /​sinus rinse. And If I don’t already, to get them. She said try those and see if it helps. She tossed me a small booklet with NeilMed All Natural products and a sample of Prilosec. I am paying money to see her and I felt like I was treated like dirt.
While I was still in the middle of asking her some questions about my sickness, she extended her hand and opened the door. Basically telling me to leave because my 5 minutes was up. I was there literally less than 5 minutes.
dr Wakefield acted like she’s too busy to waste her time on a paying patient. Who the hell does she think she is? What a POS person she is.

WHAT A TERRIBLE LOCATION THIS IS! I say that because I have had nothing but positive experiences with the practice in Garden City.
I called to schedule a same-​day appointment and was asked for the reason for my visit. I explained to the secretary/​scheduler that I was in a lot of pain, was diagnosed with a sinus infection that I never fully recovered from (for which I was already prescribed antibiotic), and that I wanted to see a specialist so that I can be given proper meds to kick this stubborn and unprecedented infection. WELL. Apparently, that explanation wasn’t good enough because I was then told, «sorry, all booked up today.»
Perhaps my case/​condition could not be handled by any of the «competent» doctors on call today? Who knows.
Avoid.

I saw dr Wakefield here who misdiagnosed me with LPR and threw a pack of Prilosec on my lap.
Turns out after a upper GI endoscopy and another scope by competent ENT they saw no reflux what so ever and no signs of LPR. Thanks for making me nuts for 3 months and making spent $$$$ on all this reflux propaganda! Never again Bayside ENT
@nora — I didn’t contact you and I want nothing to do with your practice.

HORRIBLE!!!
I don’t understand how Dr. Blank can be a pediatric MD when all he wants to do is to hold your kids down to check them. Instead of making them feel comfortable he has his assistant nearly strap your kids down. If he doesn’t get to shove the huge tube down your child’s nose he gets upset and gives attitude. You would think that as a peds MD he should know how to make a child feel comfortable about having this done… Stay away from him!!!
I didn’t see any other MDs in the practice but I saw Dr. Blank twice and I could not let my son take any more of his «ABUSE»

Every time I saw Dr. Gerald Suh he just looked in my ear, cleaned out wax and then went to the computer. He never really sat down to talk to me.
In addition, he just would prescribe medicine even if I didn’t need it. The first time I saw him he automatically gave me a nasal spray even when I told him I really cannot use nasal sprays. He told me this one would be ok. After a week I started to have terrible rebound. I called the office and spoke to the nurse who got back to me after speaking with Dr. Suh. Instead of Dr. Suh saying to the nurse when you speak to Lover P tell her not to take anything — he prescribed something else. I did not take it. And it is a good thing I didn’t the side effects were major
Then in August I had an inner ear cyst. He told me I had to take an antibiotic for a week then come back he will pop it, so I did that, he popped it a week later and then prescribed ear drops.
Yesterday I went to see him as a follow-​up. He prescribed the generic form of Allegra. Well I took it lunch time and I was fine. When I had dinner I could not swallow, my throat felt constricted. This morning I woke up extremely dizzy and could not catch my breath, severe stomach pains and heart beating fast. I called the pharmacist and he told me those are side effects and by tonight I should feel 99 percent better which I am beginning to feel.
I feel Dr. Suh should not be practicing at ENT or anywhere else for that matter. Why all this medicine? I have gone to other ENT’s and not once did they give me medicine for anything I came for.
When I had congestion the ENT’s I saw in the past told me just to drink plenty of fluids and to take Benadryl if I need to.

Both times I’ve been there I have had to wait 1.5 hrs. Do not make a late appointment
