Patient Testimonials

I would recommend Dr. Setzen to anyone. Since I was about 6 years old (I'm 17 now) I had chronic sinusitis and tried every nasal spray and antibiotic in the book. I was so frustrated, but then my boyfriend recommended doctor Setzen look at my sinuses and nose. He found that the cause was from my deviated septum. I went into surgery almost 2 weeks later. I had an excellent recovery and was barely swollen. It has been almost a month since my surgery and I can finally breathe after all these years. I feel all around so much healthier and happier. Dr. Setzen truly walks you through the whole surgery and recovery and makes you feel so comfortable. He is excellent and so so kind. If you're having any sort of ear, nose, and throat problems, go to doctor Setzen you'll feel so much better.

Five Stars Had tube put into middle ear b/c of Eustachian tube dysfunction & fluid in middle ear! Procedure was done in office with local anesthesia went well. Dr. Setzen did a great job & his office staff assisted. I can hear again & I no longer have ear pain due to fluid in ear!

Highly recommend Dr. Setzen! I had a badly deviated septum for the past 10 years after a sports injury, leading to many breathing issues and chronic nasal congestion. He was able to correct all of my issues and correct the outside appearance of my nose as it was crooked from the injury. I'm extremely happy with the results. 10/10 recommend!

Excellent Care/Best DOCTOR I am a patient of Dr.Setzen for over one year-have had Chronic Sinusitis for over twenty years plus two sinus surgeries by other ENT docs! I am so glad that I switched to Dr. Setzen, I feel that he is dedicated, extremely knowledgeable, & very skilled at what he does! Had Balloon sinus dilation one month ago b/c my frontal sinuses were blocked & at same time had Eustachian Tube Dilation done under local anesthesia in office! Did very well during procedure & after it, no down time! Had CT scan done in his office which is a time saver! This was done 1 week before I had ballon dilation done & scan showed I had blocked openings to my Frontal sinuses! Dr.Setzen is friendly & easy to talk to! His staff, Catherine & Moia are very pleasant! I finally have relief from the chronic sinusitis & my Eustachian tube is patent. I can hear again! So, Yes, I highly recommend Dr. Setzen, he has helped me feel better than I have in years!!!

Excellent doctor. Great care. Dr. Setzen operated on my sinuses over 20 years ago and it changed my life. My breathing was greatly improved and I got very few sinus infections. (One every 5 years compared to several a year before my surgery.) Recently I got a persistent infection that would not resolve and went back to Dr. Setzen. He performed sinus surgery on me, and the problem resolved. Dr. Setzen inspires confidence. He has been doing this work for decades. In addition, he is compassionate and very conscientious. He is very serious about post operative care as well. Take your time with recovery and follow his directions. I recommend Dr. Setzen very highly.

I was very fortunate to meet Dr. Setzen through my friend Richard Miranda. I went to Dr. Setzen because of a tumor I had growing on the right side of my face. Needless to say I was scared, and had a tremendous amount of anxiety. Dr. Setzen made me feel very comfortable through his great sense of compassion. The doctor diagnosed the problem and put me in the right direction resulting in a total cure of this serious situation. The tumor had to be removed because it was attached to my parotid gland on the right side of my face.

Sinus surgery works! Ten years ago I was getting sinus infections every other month. Finally I took Dr. Setzen's advice and had sinus surgery. It has been almost ten years and I have not had a sinus infection since! Dr. Setzen was patient, caring and a great surgeon. I have now come to him, ten years later, with a totally separate issue regarding my ear, again he has been thorough in examining my condition and listening to my symptoms. I feel confident that he will help me recover from this as well. I highly recommend Dr. Setzen for any ear, nose or throat issue you may have.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Michael Setzen for many years. I have a chronic nasal condition and have needed several surgeries to remove reoccurring polyps. All surgeries were performed by Dr. Setzen with great success. He has always shown great care, deep understanding of the problem and how to treat it. In addition, Dr. Setzen performed reconstructive surgery on my son’s nose a few years ago. My son had an extremely severe deviated septum from a childhood injury. He had only 5 to 10% breathing capability. It was a challenging and complex surgery that most doctors would not have even attempted. It was a 100% successful surgery, and my son has been able to breathe freely ever since. To put it simply - brilliant mind, golden hands, beautiful personality. Thank you Dr. Setzen!

I've had a history of sinus and breathing problems since childhood. After pills, sprays, and all of the other gimmicks I had Dr. Setzen treat me for a deviated septum and he cleaned out my sinuses ten years ago. Foolishly I stopped office visits and my problems came back only this time with no sense of smell or taste. After living in misery I went back to Dr. Setzen and he removed many polyps. now I can smell, taste and breath with no over the counter medicines. If you have sinus problems go see Dr. Setzen!
