Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great Doctor!
Dr Tojo listened to my concerns, was patient with me, and did an excellent job removing my tonsils after being chronically infected for years. Great doc!

His staff refuses to answer questions
My husband had stapedectomy surgery in both ears in the early 2000's and we're trying to find out what material the prostheses are made of since he needs an MRI (urgently). His staff refuses to cooperate to get us that information. The lack of care is unbelievable.

Expensive and ineffective
Saw this doctor upon the recommendation of my GP because i was suffering from hearing loss. He conducted a hearing test and inserted a tube in each of my ears, one of which has already fallen out because he put the wrong type of tubes on my ear. He should have implanted a T-tube which don't easily fall out. My office visit lasted a 1/2 hour and he billed Medicare $600 and me $400, which would make his hourly rate $2000 an hour. This physician is a rich man's doctor and unless you have money to burn I would not recommend seeing him.

It was wonderful. Dr. Tojo is awesome. The nursing staff were wonderful, they pampered me. Lindsey used the smallest needle for the iv. Dr. Tojo took the time and did the surgery meticulously. It was painless and follow up checkups showed a great success. Dr. Tojo is extremely careful and he puts patient first in all considerations. He answers all my questions in details and put my worries at ease. Now I can hear out of my bad ear. It is a miracle!

I went to Dr. Tojo for the first time a week or so ago. I needed to get a second opinion on a diagnosis I received from another ENT doctor. Dr. Tojo was courteous, he listened, I didn't feel rushed, and he was very calming. Dr. Tojo relieved my fears because the other doctor had told me I had a cyst on my vocal cord. Dr. Tojo told me he didn't see a cyst. He prescribed a nose spray and said my symptoms should subside and I should feel better after using the spray. Within two days my symptoms cleared up. I cant tell you what a pleasure it was to meet such a caring, trust worthy, and reliable doctor. My entire family goes to Dr. Tojo and they told me he was excellent. Now I will recommend him to all my friends, and anyone needing a ENT doctor, he is outstanding.

Dr Tojo is an amazing doctor. He’s incredibly patient, kind, caring and brilliant. There needs to be more physicians like this in the world - who treat the whole patient. I’m so lucky to have him as my doctor!!! Plus - the staff is incredible too. All really good people - Nicky and Chris and I wish I knew the others by name to highlight them here. If you’re looking for an exceptional ENT with a phenomenal staff - this is your team.
