Allen M Seiden

After having multiple sinus surgeries with 2 other ENTs who were still unable to find me any relief, I went to Dr. Seiden. That was in 2010 and I have never needed to find anyone else. Dr. Seiden took the time to do the proper cultures to find the correct antibiotics for me. This was imperative considering the constant stream of antibiotics the other 2 drs had been prescribing. Now, if I get an infection, he prescribes an antibiotic sinus wash to reach the sinuses that oral meds don't get to. It works every time. No more allowing infections to take hold and make me so sick. I trust his knowledge and care!!! He deserves 10 stars. After having multiple sinus surgeries with 2 other ENTs who were still unable to find me any relief, I went to Dr. Seiden.

Cured my chronic sinusitis where several other doctors failed to. I trust him and wouldn't see anyone else.

I did not like him at all. He made me feel like i wasted the entire 2 minutes he was in the room with me. The resident that was working with him was great. She was very kind and compassionate. Dr. Seiden has a terrible bed side manner. I will never go see him again.

Dr Seiden is great! Anyone complaining about fees obviously doesn't know how the medical field works. Fees aren't determined by the physician and he shouldn't be rated on them. Dr Seiden was great with my mom who we thought could have nasopharangeal cancer. He took the time to listen to her and was kind, gentle and understanding. This is what a doctor should be rated on. I would recommend him to anyone! Dr Seiden is great! Anyone complaining about fees obviously doesn't know how the medical field works.

I had seen Dr. Seiden 2 1/2 years ago for allergies. I sat in the room for 45 minutes (after sitting in the waiting room) before he came in. He looked at my ears, nose, etc. and prescribed me with Allegra. My pharmacy tech called and told me I could buy it over the counter for $12 instead of paying $60. Then I saw him this time because I am pregnant and have constant right ear ringing. After waiting a while ago, he came in the room for 5 minutes and told me there was nothing he could do.

Was too busy dealing with issues that had nothing to do with me. Left me waiting in exam room for 30 minutes, spent 5 minutes in the room with me and didnt address one of my main complaints/symptoms. Just felt like he didnt listen and left me sitting to deal with more important things. Told the checkout receptionist this and was completely blown off. Very, very unhappy with my experience. .

He spent more time out of my exam room than he did in (at least an hour outside, while I was waiting inside). He prescribed a new medicine but didn't get it authorized for over a month. Very disappointing. No personal touch at all.

Went for acute tinnitus and hearing loss in right ear. My hearing test was mostly normal so Seiden did not want to pursue further diagnostics. I was floored because I was really not able to hear from that ear and I asked him what could be causing this and he told me (verbatim) "I don't know, it just happens". He didn't want to see me again, nothing... Year later went to different ENT. Hearing test showed that I am deaf in right ear and MRI shows a brain tumor.

This doctor charges $250 new patient fee...who can afford to walk into his office. This was never mentioned at the time of the doctor visit. A 5 minute visit cost $1700.00..this includes the new patient fee and the hospital room charge..even though you never left the doctor's office... We'll never go back to him again. Beware if you have not seen this doctor in the last two years or you too will be hit with a $250 new patient fee...even if you are not a "new" patient.

I am deaf from a virus I contracted two years ago at my job at UC Health, Cincinnati. My deaf ear has been popping and all Dr. Seiden could say after two minutes was I don't know what you're talking about, we'll set you up with a hearing test and left the room. The one star is for gracing me with his presence, that's it.

Spent time get good history, took time to explain things.

He didn't seem interested or caring or friendly.

Did not ask basic diagnostic questions after a hearing test, told me not to bother with hearing aids. Later visit to another ENT uncovered problem that IS helped by hearing aids and eventually will require surgery, which allows me to plan ahead. This doctor, though, is cold in manner, disinterested, and actually seemed to delight in giving me a no-hope, deal-with-it-on-your-own answer. See anyone else.
