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.

Awful Doctor
Bills for services never received and performs unnecessary procedures that leave you worse in the end.

TERRIBLE DOCTOR
Think twice before going (OR JUST DON’T GO) to Dr. Michael Peters, ENT in Little River. I was a patient of his before this incident as a referral…On this incident, I stepped out of the shower and suddenly my hearing changed in my right ear. I immediately called Dr. Peters office to see if I could get in. His office staff told me the earliest I could get in was three weeks. I explained the situation that had just occurred but they insisted the earliest was three weeks. By the time of my appointment, my hearing was permanently damaged. I was upset…he simply said he was sorry…did not seem sincere. I explained that his staff had not placed any importance on my getting in to see him. In speaking to three other ENT’s in the area after that, they all said I should have been seen within 24 to 36 hours. They explained that many times sudden hearing loss is due to a virus and if given a steroid “early” can many times return the individual to normal hearing within a few weeks.

Horrible- given 3 week treatment of antibiotics for lumps in throat- called numerous times to say its getting worse only to be told by staff- no he cant call you back just do what he said. Went to ER - cancer found- that spread! Let Peters know-- never heard from him again. If we could give a zero rating I would!

I went to Dr. Peters because I suddenly lost most of my hearing in my left ear. He spent, at most, less than 3 minutes looking in my ear then sent me to his audiologist so he could sell me hearing aids. I went to another ENT who had an MRI done to find out what was going on. It wasn't an acoustic neuroma, as I suspected, but probably a small bleed in my brain!

Dr Peters performed a Blepharoplasty and Temporal Brow lift on me 4 days ago, he is amazing!!!! Step by step he walked me through it as he did each eye/brow, I was worried about the pain as he was not putting me to sleep, Can I just tell you all, if you have any fears, Dr Peters is your Doctor to go to, I felt nothing, I was wide awake talking to him and his assistant the whole time, the procedure too about an hour and two days into recovery I can see such a difference, I am a little swollen, barely bruised and can I tell you, Not even the need for any pain medication, I am totally amazed that it looks this good and NO pain, a little tender in spots but by far the absolute easiest procedure I have ever had done along with this recovery period, So fear not, you need to see better? want to look better, need a Doctor you can trust who KNOWS what he is doing? Dr Peters is your man!!! Would shout out to the world go to him NO OTHER !!!!!

Dr. Peters doesn't get back to his patients with test results for well over a week. I feel this is very inconsiderate of a doctor who orders tests and receives the results within 24 hours.

I am very unhappy with the results of my sinus surgery. I still can not breath out of the left side of my nose. The surgery resulted in a staff infection that I know I haven't been able to get rid of to this day. I was turned away at his office for an appointment to to resolve these issues.
