Called four times and wasn't ever able to stay on hold. I've never called a doctor's office where you're hung up on if you don't leave a message. Really ridiculous!

Dr. Stackhouse was friendly but said I would hear from a surgery scheduler the next week. A MONTH LATER after leaving messages, I finally called and got in touch with one only to find out they don't schedule out farther than 2 months. Hard to make surgery plans on such a short timeline when they take so long to (not) get back to you. Going to try my luck in Skagit County, maybe the smaller town will have better customer/patient service.

Special Thanks to Dr. Knops and his amazing team. My son had the most severe nosebleed and we made few visits. They always took us in for in any last min due to his situation. Dr. Knops recently performed an adenoids removal for my son, the preparation, the process was smooth and he kept us informed as much as he could as he understands our worries about the surgery.

He always answer everything thoroughly, and he is very friendly to young children, as my son do not like any clinic visits, but he likes Dr. Knops and name him 'the funny doctor'. :

Staff was very helpful and got all my appointments set up in one day, including a covid test, Dr. Hecht was very friendly and answered all my questions, I was a little nervous for my surgery but he did a fantastic job, I didn't feel a thing for my tongue tie procedure and he walked me through all the steps and made sure I was comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

The office was able to get me in immediately to treat my nose bleed, the exam was very quick and thorough, was given a excellent handout on prevention and instructions in case if emergency. Dr Lichtenbeger was very caring and fixed my problem. I highly recommend him to anyone in need.

I was at Bellingham ear nose and throat surgery center recently for a procedure. I am a retired small business owner a veterinarian actually who values customer service as the essential element in providing high quality to clients. Bellingham ear nose and throat has found a way to create a culture that is friendly responsible accurate and has the patients best interests at heart at all levels I was very impressed Each person I dealt with from the scheduling folks to the receptionist to the doctor and assistance gave me an impression that they were genuinely interested in caring for me and helping me through this situation that I found myself in. Best regards Gordon Plotts DVM. retired

The office staff was great. I was sorely disappointed with the Doctor I saw (Stackhouse). I think he literally spent 60-90 seconds in the room with me. Made me feel like I was wasting his time, he seemed annoyed, and didn't listen well. I'm still experience problems but sadly have no desire to feel the way I felt leaving there again. Very disappointing!

We appreciate Dr. Knops! Friendly, kind, and always helpful. His professionalism and knowledge makes us feel at ease, and my sons surgery was flawless and effective. Jana at the front desk is kind and helpful. Well done. We feel seen and taken care of in the best way possible.

The front staff is very helpful and courteous. The nurse was a quick in and out but was very friendly. Dr Vernuel was his usual self. Very positive and happy. These guys are great if you need an ENT I highly recommend them.
