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.

Excellent physician
I have seen Dr Ettinger in both the pullmonary office and the sleep center. He is a brilliant and compassionate physician. When asked he has referred me to some other excellent physicians at St Luke's. I would go to no one else in his field. I trust him to give the correct treatment.

My Pulmonologist
I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Ettinger as my pulmonologist. I began with him because I was experiencing shortness of breath and low blood/oxygen levels. He performed a battery of tests to determine the extent and causes of my respiratory issues, and immediately began treatment necessary for me to function. Kelly is his right-hand person, and they work very efficiently as a team. I am treated with respect and even compassion, and Dr. Ettinger does his best to incorporate my needs into my treatment plan. I could not be more pleased.

Dr. Ettinger was very thorough. He took the time to listen and he explained what tests would be done. He was determined to find out what was the cause of the problem.

Awful. Wouldn't listen or answer questions. Gave her an inhaler (used in office) without asking about previous side effects. Rushed in, rushed out. Nurse no better. Worst of al he badmouthed her previous pulmonary doctor who retired l

Organized, competent. But incurious and doctrinaire. Adherent to ineffective drugs and treatments, which really just cause a lot of misery. Takes loads of drug-company money. I wish my dad had just stayed with his previous pulmonologist.

The best Pulmonary Doctor in the St. Louis area. He has done more since August 2018 than the Pulmonary consultance at Christian hospital did in the past 7 years. I highly recommend him.

Dr Ettinger was a consult on my husband's case. They did an inpatient sleep study because he was admitted for a seizure. All the tests were negative for the normal things associated with seizures. Dr Ettinger came in the day after a sleep study was done & told us he didn't have the results of the sleep study yet, but "no news was good new" and discharged him. I am an RN, this is not acceptable way to handle such a serious medical situation. It took MONTHS to get those results. UNACCEPTABLE!!
