Dr Porter is probably the best doctor I've ever had. Personable, knowledgeable, great bedside manner, keeps me informed.

Dr. Porter isn't what I would call conversive, but he was kind, gentle, and professional. He didn't really tell me he was going to cauterize my nose until he was beginning the procedure, but I already knew it needed to be done and I actually appreciated the delay in info in this situation. It eased my anxiety tremendously to not know exactly when this was beginning. I was grateful that he was aware of my anxiety over the bleeding beginning as I walked into the building. He was very kind and calm as he told me to hold still. He told me when I would feel the sensation and then gently told me to hold still. His kind voice helped me get through a painful procedure. And then numbing medicine he used was great! When I said, That medicine tastes nasty. I could here the affirming and sympathetic smile in his voice as he said,Yes, it does!

We appreciate Dr Porter and his expertise.

Dr Porter did a fantastic job of listening to my symptoms and found the cause very quickly and efficiently. I was seen by another well know ENT 8 years ago and he did not listen to my concerns nor did he correctly diagnose my condition. It was a very refreshing experience for me.
Aug 26, 2022
Really liked him
Jul 3, 2022
I didn't have much confidence after the first visit with this doctor, but the second confirmed that he is not very bright in his understanding of his medical practice. He gave me completely bogus, 100% factually wrong advice.

She's always asking questions and checking on what I would like
Jun 8, 2022
He was great as far as including me in decisions about my care. Basically, he gave me the options I could choose from and left it up to me to decide what to do. I did like that because I have the option to get my tonsils out if I decide it's worth it to me but they weren't the cause of the issue I came in for.Dr. Porter didn't seem to be the happiest person but that could just be his personality so that's fine. He was also a bit rough with the tongue depressor and I do wish I had more of an explanation for some things. .

Doctor Porter was extremely thorough in his check up, his explanation of my problem, & setting a plan to get me better. He made sure to do the necessary tests to rule out any other problems.

This care provider is great with managing the same conditions day in and day out, but demonstrates no interest in tackling unusual cases
Apr 2, 2022
Again, everyone was very helpful and nice.

I had a complication post operation and everyone was very helpful and concerned with getting me taken care of. I am very grateful for everyone In the office who helped figure it out.

Dr Porter provided a thorough exam for me being a new patient of his, I appreciated that he DID read up on the transferred records from my former provider. It did just feel quite rushed in discussing his thoughts BEFORE letting me finish my own, but overa

He was very personable (even told me my clothes were festive). He gave me a routine that I can try to take care of myself if the bleeding starts again. He sent a prescription to my pharmacy and seemed very thorough and was kind.

The doctor was very behind his schedule. In an attempt to try to catch up, he spoke very quickly and we felt rushed. He did answer our questions, but the rushed nature of the appointment wasn't good.

Dr.Porter was leaps and bounds better than any other ENT we've seen. He was very thorough in his physical examination and gathering the history of our problem
