Dr. Frank N Salamone

I am senior citizen with heart condition. Most important thing is I need medicine to protect my heart w/ ANY surgery. I needed minor throat surgery (my usual ENT doc retired -this doctor was new to me). At first office visit this doctor brought up my need for extra heart medicine during surgery based on my heart history = good sign. It went downhill from there. In the preop room at RGH I asked when I would be getting my extra heart medicine & this doc had COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN :(. He thanked me for reminding him- so my spouse & I thought it was taken care of. BIG MISTAKE . When I got to operating room I reminded the anesthesia doc and the nurse that i still needed the extra med for my heart but they knocked me out so I never saw it given. I FOUND OUT I NEVER GOT THE EXTRA MEDICINE FOR MY HEART:(. NO ONE at RGH LISTENED or CARED! I now have to have extra heart testing :(. But my life is mostly over- I have no idea why anyone would trust THIS doc with a CHILD! Or ANY loved one!!!

My teenager has tinnitus. Dr. Salamone's manner was abrupt during our second visit and he appeared to really want to wrap up the appointment as fast as possible. My child shared the significant anxiety that she is experiencing from this constant issue, and Dr. Salamone did not offer any suggestions or help. Dr. Salamone answered my child's questions curtly and deflected her suggestions and requests. I laughed out loud at the end of the visit at Dr. Salamone's obvious desire for the appointment to be done. Even if they feel like nothing can be done, I do expect doctors to show empathy and effort to their patients. His receptionists and staff were great.

Dr. Salamone has been a very good doctor for my sinus issues over the past few years. He is straight-forward, prompt, and gets immediately down to business without wasting time - just what I like.

I was recommended to this office, by an ENT specialist, for a tonsillectomy. The moment Dr. Salimone walked into the room, he was very dismissive. There was no examination, he looked at my tonsils for 3 seconds, and told me to put my mask back on. He "talked" at me for maybe 5 minutes, before sending me out the door. I left upset and didn't even finish filling out the new patient forms. I have been dealing with throat and tonsil issues for years and I don't feel like I was being taken seriously., Or that he wanted to listen. My visit was immensely underwhelming, and a waste of time.

I was referred for a hearing test. When there, I saw two people, one did a 10 minute hearing test then saw Dr Salamone who answered questions. The visit was fine. My issue is that I was charged TWO separate co-pays of $50 each! Same office, same visit. I was taken back by the two co-pays, seems excessive.

Went to the doctor for acute tinnitus. At first I was positive about the visit. A hearing test was performed, but no meaningful discussion about the reason I went in the first place - tinnitus. Follow up visit lasted several minutes and was to set up for an MRI which was alluded to in the first visit. Third visit was for an MRI which was negative, but my tinnitus is worse after the MRI test. I know find that an MRI can cause shifts to hearing and negatively influence hearing. So the MRI test as recommended by the doctor appears has actually made my condition worse.

He is a very good doctor. He was knowledgeable, honest, and did not try to do anything that I didn't really need.

I highly recommend him. Great doctor

Totally impressed with every aspect of this practice! From staff to doctors, you feel cared for and relaxed. Professional, efficient and clear cut in diagnosis and treatment. Great find!

Excellent

He is a great doctor. He is help me with a surgery from another doctor. I feel so much better going to him. I highly recommend this doctor. I will never leave him.

Well , don't really know how to put this, I was not happy with his office and his PA. To me all they wanted to do is a hearing test, cost more to the Ins. co. Make more money for them. I went there because i had a very bad Sinus infection could Not hear at all with out some getting in my face to yelling at me. My point is they knew I had a infection, so why did they do an expensive hearing test that was not necessary at this time? The PA also gave me the wrong type of nose spray.

Dr Salamone is amazing. He removed my thyroid and my healing process is great. The incision and stitching look great. I would recommend him. Thanks Dr. Salamone????????????????

I had an excellent experience starting with the phone call to make an appointment. Everyone is kind and professional. Dr. Salamone and Dr. Mulberry have tons of experience and I trust them implicitly. I highly recommend this practice.

I've had 3 nasal surgeries with him and still have the same problems. Started seeing another doctor since 9 times out of 10 Salamone seems disinterested. I'm also not impressed with his ancient equipment.

Dr. Salamone took excellent care of our 2 year old daughter when we were told she would need ear tubes after chronic ear infections. He explained the procedure to us and was so comforting as this was our first experience with a child going into surgery. It was a quick procedure and our daughter has had no reoccurring ear infections. We are so grateful that he could help our little girl. I would highly recommend him!

Dr. Salamone and his staff listened to our concerns and treated us with the utmost respect. Our daughters both had different issues. One needed tubes, not because of ear infections but because of a negative pressure in her ear. The other daughter's ears produce excessive wax. Both are singers and were having difficulty hearing themselves sing. They are both doing great!

I came to see Dr Salamone with my 14 year old who had huge tonsils. For years we had been told they would shrink but they hadn't. Dr Salamone was decisive in recommending removal. It was quick, with no side effects and a short recovery period. We had been warned that this would be difficult in an older child, but it all went very smoothly.

Dr. Salamone was professional & knowledgeable at all times. He didn't make me feel rushed during my appts., but always took the time to explain what was going on & what he planned to do to treat the condition.

Dr. Salamone takes great care of both of my children's ENT needs and I trust him with their care both medically and surgically. The staff at the office and the surgical center were also great!

I have been to Dr. Salamone for sinus and throat issues. Each time he has listened intently to my problems with concern and empathy. He diagnosed my problems each time and accurately prescribed a course of action which quickly resolved. Highly recommended!

Took my son to see Dr Salamone for snoring. Instead of rushing into surgery he recommended my son have a sleep test first to be sure he doesn't have sleep apnea.

I am so grateful to Dr. Salamone for the wonderful care he provided to my mother as she fought cancer. Not only did he provide excellent care, he was so sympathetic and caring to her. I am also so appreciative of his direct and kind communication style which helped us understand what she was facing.

I recently had difficulty swallowing. Dr. Salamone explained the procedure he was going to do in easy to understand language. Upon completing the procedure he recommended a barium x ray to make sure there were no underlying issues. He said I should have a follow up appointment with my internist. I definitely would recommend him to others.

Thorough examination and explanation of diagnoses, recommended treatments and follow up.

Dr. Salamone performed a tonsillectomy on my 3 year old daughter. We were very happy with his care during the office visits and surgery. He explained the procedure clearly, answered our questions, and gave us a good idea of what to expect after the surgery.

Dr. Salamone took excellent care of my daughter's chronic ear infections. We were able to schedule PE tubes in a very timely manner. He was receptive to our concerns and very kind to our daughter.

Dr. Salamone is knowledgeable, kind, and very competent. I lived with sinus pain and chronic sinusitis for years and thought that I needed surgery. Dr. Salamone is a surgeon who does not push surgery. He listened to my concerns and symptoms and suggested a non-surgical course of action. He told me to return if my symptoms were not better and that we would devise another course of action. My symptoms greatly improved so I did not need more treatment and I have been very pleased.

Outstanding professional care. And followed up with several one-on-one phone calls. Would recommend Doctor Salamone to anyone looking for an excellent ENT.

Dr. Salamone operated on our daughter, put tubes in her ears and removed her tonsils. Our entire experience was fantastic. He was always professional and excellent in his surgical skills, and was able to have a great rapport with our little 4 year old daughter and keep her fears at bay as well. All of our follow-ups have been great - he has listened to all of our concerns and questions, encouraged us to call with any needs at all. We have recommended him to all of our family and friends.

Dr Salamone did not seem to listen to the reason I was there. I had a cough for several months and had a wheeze in my sinus or head area that kept me awake. He kept going back to my vertigo He told me the wheeze was from my lungs No it was not He sent me on my way telling me that everything was good I still have the cough and the wheeze What do I do now?

I have been suffering from vertigo and Menieres and a plugged ear and sinus issues for over 3 yrs now. Whenever I see him he does his standard test to check my loss of hearing. Which I already have told him I can barely hear out of my ear. I asked if I could get an xray of my sinuses and he says No this is vertigo and menieres and you have to control your sodium and never prescribes anything else. Says I have to live with it. He is not emphatic and my appt without hearing tests takes 10 min.

In total he probably spent 5 minutes with an examination that was clearly less thorough than a GP durning a routine checkup. He was uninterested in the history of my issues, or knowing whether or not they're reoccurant (they are). Finally, after his incredibly cursory examination, he prescribed me with a nasal spray that I was already taking (which doesn't help much anyways). I didn't know the generic name and he didn't care to ask if I was taking it or had used it in the past.

Dr. Salamone and his whole staff have been the consummate profesionals. I cannot express the gratitude that I have for him. He has been there for me at every turn. Anyone in need of an ENT need not look any farther. Not only is he my Doctor, he is my friend.
