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.

Saved my life
Dr. Omay operated on my skull based chondrosarcoma twice in 2021 - first for a biopsy and then nearly full resection. I found him to be attentive and extremely knowledgeable. Now two years after my first surgery, I have a normal life and I owe that to him, Dr. Manes (ENT), and the whole crew at Smilow. I am very grateful!

He did surgery on my mother and she had complications from his decisions during that surgery. She had to go back for an immediate second surgery. The impact on her body of those two surgeries was irreversible. She walked into the hospital in 2018, came out in a stretcher to a rehab/nursing facility where she never recovered and eventually passed away this April. We will never know how she would have been if that first surgery went smoothly. He is a nice man, but with questionable decision making and direction.

Dr.Omay was so patient and explained everything to me in a way that I could understand. I felt extremely comfortable meeting with him my first time, and am 100 % confident in him. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Omay!

I have a 15 year history of back problems and was referred to the office after moving to the area. If you are not a candidate for surgery then Dr. Omay considers you a waste of his time! He also runs late quite often and is difficult to understand. The office staff/nurses are some of the least friendly. I'd shop around.
