Excellent physician and clinic
September 25, 2026
Over the past 15 years Dr Bennett has shown great knowledge, understanding and compassion. The thing I appreciate the most is he is a very nice man. He always smiles and makes me feel welcome, more providers could learn this art. Sadly that art might be dying away and hopefully Dr Bennett is able to mentor the next generation of providers this greatly needed talent. Oh Yeah and he is a FANTASTIC DOCTOR! While I hope I never have to recommend anyone to him (who wants to get Menieres disease :) ), when I have the Opportunity to do so I do it with out any hesitation as he is simply the Best. Did I mention he is a great guy?? Oh and to whoever is reading this please do your best to keep Dr. Bennett happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was extremely pleased with Dr. Bennett's explanation of risk vs benefits. I've been looking for quite some time for a provider to be honest about the risk associated with moving forward with certain procedures.
