Dr Semaan is a wonderful doctor and his staff is always very professional.
Dr Semann was excellent. Even made clear a few things I didn't understand before I saw him. This was first and only visit as I need to be supervised by my regular ENT for now. Thank you. Was pleased with all the care
This was my first visit with Dr Semaan. I was extremely impressed. He sat and talked to me in great detail about my condition, what needs to be done to fix it and answered all questions I had.
Excellent care from my doctor, audiologist, and nurses. They were able to work a schedule around my needs.

I am facing a life changing and scary surgery and Dr. Semaan is helping me understand the benefits of the procedure and giving me the confidence to move forward with it.
Good. Complicated.
This office is great! The staff and physician are wonderful. I would recommend my family and friends.
Tremendous, attentive listener. Extremely knowledgeable about *** and a course of action. Helpful description of what to expect in the days and weeks ahead. ***, his nurse was extremely responsive to calls made with post visit questions. Fantastic team of health professionals!!!

Semaan is the best!
By far Dr. Semaan Is an excellent doctor! Not only extremely knowledgeable, but you can tell he cares about the patient. Dr. Semaan takes his time with you and makes sure all questions answered to your satisfaction.
Dr. Seaman. Was very kind and very knowledgeable about my condition about second cochlear implant. I would recommend dr.seaman as a physician
This provider is an example of the highest degree of medical care that can be provided. He is exemplary in every way, His knowledge as an ENT, his ability to explains things and always answer every question, and his general friendly demeanor make him a doctor that your facility should be proud of.
I am so fortunate to be under the care of Dr Semaan. He is a very knowledgeable, skilled and caring practitioner. I have been a patient for many years
Dr. Semaan is outstanding
Outstanding visit
I was very happy with them was my first time seeing them!!
The wait time became irrelevant when it was clear that the doctor spent as much time as necessary and did not rush during my appointment. Something must give with busy doctors. Either you have to wait a little or be rushed through an appointment, or wait months to get an appointment (the waits are already long.) Please explain this to people...)
I like Dr Semann he seems to be genuinely concerned for my best options in making decisions for my care.
Very good doctor
Excellent staff right on time and doctor was pleasant and gave thorough explanation of procedure to be performed!
Dr. Semaan is a very nice man. He is a professional but he never makes you feel like what you say matters. He clearly cares about your health, in this case, hearing.
My Audiologist recommended I see Dr Semaan to get confirmation that my hearing loss cannot be helped with hearing aid or cochlear implant due to permanent auditory nerve damage. I was relieved to get an explanation from Dr Semaan who explained my type of hearing loss is 2% of his patients with my type of hearing loss. I am glad to have met Dr Semaan. He is an excellent listener and extremely knowledgeable and straightforward. I highly recommend Dr Semaan for complicated hearing loss. If you are in need for professional medical advice, this is definitely the Go To Doctor.
