I think Dr. Blake is an excellent doctor and he's great with the patient, speaking from me, and he takes time and is concerned about his patients and very understanding. I wouldn't leave him for nothing. So he's an excellent doctor, he's caring, and he's concerned about his patients. I give him a 10, or actually a 20.

Thorough, communicative, respectful. Listened carefully to everything I had to say and when I expressed anxiety around certain things he was extra careful and respectful of that. When examining gave feedback which I value.

This doctor, Dr. Alkire, I think, he is the first time I've seen him and what a fantastic doctor. He knew the history, he understood what was going on, he explained my hearing test results. I most definitely will be coming back even though this office is further away than other offices. That's it.

Dr. Alkire is the best ears and nose and throat guy to go to. He is so good. One of my family members is making an appointment to see him in April. I'm very satisfied with him and so glad I found him.
