We had such a wonderful experience with this Dr Jill Jeffe. She took the time to really listen, explained everything clearly, so much so when she asked if we had any questions, I didn't because she explained things so well. She made my child feel comfortable and at ease. It's such a relief to find a provider who is not only knowledgeable but genuinely caring. We felt heard, supported, and confident in the care our child received and will receive. Highly recommend to any parent looking for an excellent pediatric ENT.
Dr, Starzyk great-whoever I set appt with wasn't listening to our need or didn't feel empowered to respond to our need for a virtual appt.
