Patient Satisfaction

How likely are you to recommend Dr. Hood?
Quick and to the point. Very busy practice so no time to chat. Explained each procedure well, his findings, and took the time to explain. Not overly warm and fuzzy but did engage when asked what brought him to the field of otolaryngology. Seemed knowledgeable. Appointment was quite fast, short wait time.
