Regala Christopher MD

The receptionist is really nice, and I didn’t wait very long. The scoping, however, was a little rough. You may need to ask for him to take it easy.

I visited dr. Regala today and completely satisfied. He was knowledgeable and I was not rushed. Would recommend and coming back to see him for my surgery.

I’ve seen Dr. Regala for a few years, and the one major gripe I used to have was that he didn’t spend much time with me as a patient. He rushed through questions and answers, and was pretty rough with the nasal scope, but I didn’t have much choice but to go see him as my medical insurance doesn’t offer a lot of choices for ENTs.
A few months back, I had to have surgery on my sinuses with this doctor. Everything in my preop was going fine till the doctor showed up and said the surgery before mine had been canceled, so they rushed me in to surgery (and I do mean RUSHED). I had my surgery and was sent home, still numb and sleepy from pain meds. Two days after surgery, I found myself combing the internet for answers to my questions because the doctor wouldn’t take my phone calls! It turns out my throat had been damaged during the surgery by the breathing tube. When I finally got through to the doctors office (after calling every day for 5 days!), I was told, «Well your follow up appointment is next week, so you can see him then.» In my follow up appointment, I explained to the doctor what had happened, and how I had tried and tried to reach him through his clinic. His answer was, «Oh well, your okay now.» I don’t recommend this doctor!

This would be about my third visit with Dr Regala and I have to say that I have not had any issue with my provider. I felt like I might of had a sinus infection so I called the office on a Tuesday and I believe I got lucky and got an appointment the very next day or something. I checked in, filled out some paperwork (some time went by since my last visit) to update my file. I went in, saw the doc, told him how i was feeling and he checked me out and I was right. Sinus infection, BOOOOO! However, he wrote me up for some meds, sent me to the front desk where I made my copay and follow up appointment. Then headed downstairs to the little Longs pharmacy to fill my Rx. No more then 15 minutes later, I was on my way back to work, meds on hand, and on my way to recovery!
