I recently met with Dr. Hughes and Dr. Perkins, me and my family have been with Dr. Setzen since the beginning, these 2 doctors were confident, clear and totally relatable. When it comes to surgery, it's about skill, not bedside manner. Knowing Dr. Setzen, he would not accept anything less than excellent. 100% confidence.
Dr. Engle is amazing!!!! I highly recommend this practice to anyone. The office staff is always so pleasant. Dr. Engle really knows what he is talking about. For a surgeon to tell you that you do not need surgery and it really would not be beneficial, that says a lot. I was so pleased with how professional, knowledgeable and down to earth Dr. Engle was. He talks to you like a human being and in such a way you completely and thoroughly understand everything by the time you leave the office. I would return to this practice and Dr. Engle in a heartbeat!
I had an excellent experience during my visit. I have hearing tests and a follow up visit scheduled for next week. I am going to cancel these appointments because this practice does not require masks. It seems to me that a health care facility should be mandating masks for their staff and their patients especially during this rapid rise in Covid throughout New York State. As a patient, I expect to be protected during a health care visit. It saddens me to cancel.
