Patient Reviews
Nov 28, 2022
I have been seeing Dr. Van Ess for a while now due to an ear problem. I have had issues with my ear since childhood and he has really been helping with the issue. After he rebuilt the eardrum and cleaned out where the 3 tiny bones are. I was able to hear better, prior to that I had no hearing at all.. He is very attentive, listens to what I have to say and yes he does take notes at the computer but that's fine. IMHO he is one of the best Dr's to see if you have an ear problem.
