Best explanation EVER on why we're proceeding as we are.

March 11, 2013

We like Dr. Muntz. He has always been very friendly and very concerned. He has always talked with us and answered all questions we have had. I have and do recommend him to anyone I know who needs to see an ENT.

February 08, 2013

We had an excellent experience. Dr. Muntz listened very attentively and explained everything very well. He was also great to answer any questions we had.

February 05, 2013

I have already recommended dr Muntz to a friend. I have total confidence in him and his abilities.

January 31, 2013

Dr. Muntz is good at describing the problem. He is very thorough and I don't really have to ask to many questions after he explains everything.

January 28, 2013

wE SAW Dr. munz 8 years ago and remembered we liked him so much we came back to him.

January 28, 2013

Harlan is great! We typically have a longer wait time (compared to other doctors) when we see him, but I understand that he is taking time with his patients and appreciate that.

January 28, 2013

I cannot say enough good about Dr. Muntz. He has seen 4 out of our 5 children. He listens to me completely. He is worried about the overall health of the child and I feel like he sees me as a valuable part of the "team". I have met with many doctors and some don't listen because I don't have years of medical experience. I think Dr. Muntz understands that I know my child better than anyone on the planet and he takes that into account as he helps me make decisions regarding my child's care. I LOVE Dr. Muntz. He is truly an amazing doctor who still loves what he does after all these years. (Our oldest daughter saw him over 9 years ago). He is so good with the kids, makes them laugh, tries to make it happy and talks to them first because really they are why we are there.

Dr. Muntz is always willing to take the time and answer questions no matter how insignificant or off-topic they may seem. He is also very willing to take the time to help my husband to understand visually what is happening through the use of pictures and diagrams. This helps him feel more included and is greatly appreciated. Dr. Muntz is one I do refer people to even though we live in Idaho.

December 10, 2012

Dr. Muntz and Dr. Hoffman are terrific doctors.

October 08, 2012

Dr. Muntz spoke to Nick first upon entering the room and he made sure that i understood everything about Nick's care.

Loved Dr. Munz

September 15, 2012

Was nervous to go to a doctor I had never heard of before, but Dr. Muntz was great!!! He made me feel confident in his work, and am glad we were refered to him. I look forward in going ahead with treatment for my son.

August 16, 2012

August 13, 2012

We were very impressed with Dr. Muntz.

June 20, 2012

Dr. Muntz has and is always wonderful and would receive a 5 all the way down the board

June 18, 2012

Although we did wait for a considerable amount of time before being seen, once in the exam room we never felt as though we were being rushed, everyone took the time needed to properly diagnose the problem and it's solution, and had the patience needed to work with our mildly cranky child

June 18, 2012

I have always recommended Dr. Muntz to anyone who has a child with ENT issues. He has been my son's doctor for almost 18yrs.

June 08, 2012

He made the visit fun for my two year old. The doctor got my two year old interested by talking about birds tweeting in his ear.

April 27, 2012

Dr. Muntz is an amazing doctor and in the four years that he has been our daughter's doctor we have never felt like she was getting anything but the very best care. Dr. Muntz is absolutely an amazing doctor and there are not enough words to express our deep appreciation for what he has done for Abbie.

March 30, 2012

So grateful for Dr. Muntz he is such a great doctor!

March 06, 2012

I recommend him to everyone!

February 07, 2012

Dr. Muntz was wonderful! He is a brilliant physician, that is obvious! It is very sad that the staff in the clinic can't function at a higher level! With some courtesy and dignity towards the patient!

February 02, 2012

Absolutely LOVE dr Muntz! I was an unplanned appointment, but due to a post op medical problem they had me come in? Dr Muntz was in the OR that day, and still came and saw my son and treated him! He spent time, explains everything very well, and always listens and addresses my questions and concerns! I truly appreciate him and all he does! Even with his being in the OR and us getting "squeezed" in between his surgeries, we still had very short wait times and was treated extremely well! As I stated at the beginning.....We absolutely LOVE Dr. Muntz!

January 26, 2012

Dr. Muntz I feel is very caring and knowledgeable in his specialty. I appreciate the care and concern he shows during visits.

January 19, 2012

Dr Muntz was very concerned about Lucas and the condition of his ear. He took the situation very seriously and did not discount my concerns as Lucas' mother. I appreciated his willingness to take the situation so seriously and give my son the proper care that he needed.

January 06, 2012

Dr. Muntz didn't tell us about follow up, but his nurse did.
