Patient Reviews
Apr 06, 2023
I am so grateful for Dr. Brewster and his team. I can breathe so much better now! My previous ENT doctor told me it was just allergies and even after reviewing my CT scan said I would not be a candidate for surgery. I insisted to my primary care doctor that he refer me to another ENT doctor and that was when I met Dr. Brewster and I am so thankful I did. I only wish I would have done this years ago. I was suffering from a deviated septum and according to my other doctors it was just bad sinus and allergy issues. Finally I had enough and insisted that my doctor refer me to another ENT option. Dr. Brewster reviewed my CT scans in great detail and you can tell he really cares. He listens and explains everything in great detail. The bottom line is that my septum had major blockage on one side and I needed some other items cleaned out. The medical terms are the following, septoplasty and turbinate reduction is the procedure I had. The procedure went well and the recovery was great.
