Drew Locandro, M.D.

He listened. Diagnosed. Prescribed treatment. All done in a kind and informative manner. Excellent.

Very good care. My hearing was carefully assessed and he didn’t try to sell me hearing aids that I didn’t need.

Friendly and Takes time with his patients.

I was referred to a ENT doctor due to signs of nasal blockage and symptoms of sinus issues. He physically looked up my nostrils for about 2 secs with his bare eyes and sent me home with migraine medicine. No investigation into the xray or my symptoms.

The medicine he prescribed has helped me calm the pain a lot, if I need to make another appointment with him, I will.

Excellent surgeon and doctor, very good communicator. His care has made a huge improvement in my quality of life.

Dr Lovrando was friendly and thorough.

Very congenial and knowledgeable. Diagnosis was accurate and medication prescribed was helpful.

He saved my life basically. I can eat now and my throat felt better after day 1. Please tell him his patient said thank you.

Staff is very friendly and courteous. Dr. Locandro is very professional and is concerned about my well being. I get instant relief from my ears after he carefully irrigates them.

Been using Dr. Locandro for quite a while and he has helped me with my sinus condition.

He did nothing to help me and did not even look at my sore throat.

He was very personable. This was my first appt with him and was a follow up for facial fractures from a fall when I was out of town. Will definitely use him again if needed.

Great dr. Sense of humor

Very Professional.

Great Group

He doesn't have bedside manners. He kinda rude and brushes off how the patient feels. He kept asking what do you want me to do? I'm like you're the Dr you tell me. I don't know if he just set in his ways or just doesn't care for certain types of patients.

Cleaned my mother’s ears! She hears much better.

Took his time for detailed history, explained everything about exam and treatment. Couldn't have been better.

Nice, professional, explained everything, listened and addressed everything i mentioned.

I already left my survey! All excellent!

I don’t think Dr. Locandro understood my symptoms as it relates to the discomfort I am experiencing with my ears. His main focus was on purchasing a hearing aid and he could not give me advice on the progression of my degenerative nerve with all the experience he is supposedly to have.

So ruff. He didn’t fully explain what he was about to do. He said I’m about to check you nose, then shovel the wire down my entire nasal cavity without warning.

Courteous and professional

Listened to m concerns and acted accordingly.

Did not greet me, walked out of the room & didn’t specify how long the cotton would remain in my nose or when he’d come back in. Was not gentle or reassuring when doing the procedure, said I’m at the ENT that I should expect the uncomfortable procedure. Did not fully address concern. First visit & will not return.

He addressed all my concerns about some health issues

He's a great doctor. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Locandro is an excellent ENT. Very caring and professional in his interactions with patients. He provides advice and solutions for sinus problems.

He's a great doctor.

No beside manner.

Very nice to my 91 year old mother-in-law!

Always pleasant, but fast

He was professional and great as usual.

Great doctor

This doctor is not attentive, he rushed me in and out so quickly I didn't feel I was heard.

Thorough! Friendly and kind man who took care of problem quickly and efficiently.

Just waiting for a surgery date soon.

The visit was good the Dr was nice , friendly and honest about the procedure, process and surgery

I met Dr. Locandro. I felt rushed and like an inconvenience. I let him know I was scared, felt like I wasn’t being heard from other doctors, and felt at that time very sick. He “mhm’d” me and didn’t give feedback. I was left strapped in the X-ray room alone for 10 minutes. X-ray came back and I got told, verbatim, “there’s no way it’s your sinus’, this scan is clear and looks great”. Which in reality is indeed a blessing but to hit another wall of no answers is exhausting. I got no direction on next steps but to go to an infectious disease director or an immunologist. (No referral given by the way). I began to have a panic attack and had to exit the room. He said he wished me well. Once again I left Northwest ENT with no help. Dr. Qureshi told me to come back and that tonsil removal may be my best bet. Dr. Locandro laughed at that suggestion and said he would never. Really lovely getting different answers from doctors. I will never return to Northwest Ent. I want a refund.

Nice visit. Nice bedside manner

Dr. Locandro did not meet my expectations of a professional providing a service. I felt that his communication was poor, he was not clear, friendly or respectful . I felt like he was annoyed to speak to me and I ultimately was made to feel like a child by his body language and verbal responses. I think I ultimately got the right diagnosis, but otherwise was not impressed.

He came up with a unique method to treat my sinus condition. All is well.

Not personable at all. Borderline rude!

Lovely man…

Saw doctor half hour late but once I saw Dr Locandro, he was quick and efficient. The office is conveniently located near Kennestone hospital.

Dr Locandro is the best

Arrogant, quick and didn’t care for him.

Professional, efficient, informative and kind!

Visit with Dr. Locandro, was great. Only took a few minutes once I got in his waiting room however, I sat in the outside, waiting room for over an hour.

Dr. Locandro’s surgery fixed a major problem for my breathing, a nose polyp I had grown. While there was some discomfort, I can not imagine recovery going any better. Superb team in Marietta office and at Woodstock surgery center.

Dr. Lecandro was very helpful with my condition and came to a treatment that would help. He was very friendly and made me feel comfortable with his treatment plan.

Always a gentleman!

Great Dr. Personable and kind.

V ERY GOOD DOCTOR.

He didn’t spend very much time. He didn’t check my sinuses at all. He did get some wax out of my ear. I have sinus pressure that was not addressed.

Did not take time to listen to my systems or give any medical advice Seem he was just in a hurry

Great docto!

The dr. seemed to be in a hurry.

He examined me.. He saw the problem and took care of everything quickly and explained what was going on. Excellent experience with him.

Kind and quick to get the job done.

Such a very GOOD DOCTOR!! So caring, concerned! Answered all questions, offered advice and suggestions

Gave me new insights and plan for treatment

Had an ear blockage, seemed like standard procedure. Popped in, cleared it up, made mention of potential methods to prevent this in the future, and was out. Very quick, very professional. Appreciated the assistance!

Entire Staff and Dr Locandro very professional and kind to me.

Clear, relatable, approachable

Answered all of my questions addressed all of my issues, very knowledgeable and much of the exam and needed tests were done on the first visit

Dr. Locandro is a brilliant doctor with a calm demeanor and great bedside manner. I felt completely comfortable. He is a credit to his practice and he is highly recommended.

Very pleasant to talk to and listens to everything you have problems with. He has set forth good plans for my well being.

He caused pain during an ear wax removal procedure. I suggested using another technique that didn’t cause me pain in the past but he just said that he’s almost done and continued the same method. Also my appointment was delayed by about 45 minutes.

Very professional. Answered my questions and explained what was going on.

Dr. Was friendly and professional.

Professional, personable very caring and totally interested in the best treatment for my condition without an accelerated plan that wasn’t necessary at the existing status of. My problem.

Very professional and solved my sinus issue. Highly recommend

Didn’t listen very well and kept interrupting. Felt like he was just trying to get me in and out of there and not take his time to hear what was really going on.

Dr. Locandro was extremely friendly and helpful. He took care of my son with excellent care. My son's operation was a success. Thanks a million

Great Doctor and a nice guy!

The doctor was nice and visit itself was 5 minutes or so however I was asked to get there at 8:30 and we weren’t seen until 10am. My son is on the autism spectrum and the waiting area had so many people at times there wasn’t enough room for everyone to sit. My son got very irritable when there were so many people and we had to go wait in the car. I tried to call to get an update as we had been waiting an hour and was told by an automated prompt we were 17th in the queue.

Very informative a caring. Spent time ensuring I was well informed and comfortable. Put me at ease before and post surgery.

Very professional, thorough, plus super clean office, efficient staff

Did not show compassionate or concern about the issues being addressed. Was more negative than positive.

Seeing this doctor was a complete waste of time. He had no interest in hearing what all my baby has been through and completely dismissed anything I was telling him. Very rude and can tell he was just trying to hurry to get out of there. Do NOT recommend.

NOT very personable or medically informative about my situation or alternative corrective procedures.

He was excellent and took care of my issue.

Great visit! Very informative!

Very Kindness and excellent attention and very successful in his diagnosis

Very professional. He listens and responds to questions in an easy to understand manner. Friendly - welcoming.

He checked my ears and ran a CAT scan to check my sinuses. He was very supportive.

He said BEFORE testing me he probably wouldn't be able to help me. And after testing he said he couldn't help and offered NOTHING.

I appreciate that Dr. Locandro goes the extra mile to ensure the issue is corrected. He is professional but friendly. He brings a lot of knowledge to his patients that I hope the newer doctors are taking note of. I saw 2 other doctors there before I was scheduled with him and he was the only one who detected that I had a fungus in my ears that was being fed by the ear drops the other two had prescribed. He continues to be top-notch!!!!

This was very in caring! I think race played big part I will never go here again

Love going to his office, the Staff is always courteous and Dr. Locandro is a great physician, friendly and I always enjoy talking to him and listening to his advise.

Very personable. Great Doctor

Dr. L is kind and understanding, even when I sound a bit crazy. I know we will find a successful end to this journey soon. Thanks Dr. Locandro!!

Dr. Locandro was very thorough and listened to my concerns. The only issue I had was with the lack of communication from anyone after waiting 30 minutes after check in and after 30 more minutes in the little room… not one person came in to say “sorry, he’s a little bit behind”. Finally saw the doctor an hour after my appointment time.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Locandro for 20 years. He always addresses your concerns and takes the time to explain everything going on with my ear.

Dr. Drew Locandro is the super-best great ENT and he cares for all his patients with his professional advanced medical knowledge, experience and accurate diagnosis. He loves all his patients with a tender care and tangible hearts. Thanks to God for places Dr. Locandro as His healing agent in our community. May God bless him and his family richly!

Dr. Locandro was very helpful and professional. I will definitely return to this office.

Dr. Locandro is very personable and knowledgeable. He did a great job with my surgery!

Love this office. Great doctor!

Very nice but I feel he wasn’t in-tune with my symptoms. I felt like another number on my visit.

Dr Locandro is always a Pro and keep me going!

Does an awesome job listening to concerns. He is also really funny. I love his sense of humor.

Dr. Locandro was cool! I was comfortable and didn’t feel like I was just ‘another patient’. He was clear in giving me my results and didn’t tell me what to do but asked, ‘what would I like to do’. I liked that!

Always running late. Does not offer any apology.

Courteous, knowledgeable and clear when explaining my situation. Thank you!!

A really great physician. He understood my need and has been a great help in addressed it. I value his experience and help to me.

He was knowledgeable and personable. His staff are really nice and helpful.

I have the utmost respect for Dr. Locandro and his medical advice. He went above and beyond for my treatment today. 10 star performance

Very dismissive of concerns

Very precise, no nonsense.

I appreciate the time he took to find non-surgical options for me.

Very pleased with how he listened to my concerns and addressed each one.

Very professional, answered my questions thoroughly

He made it clear that he did not care about my concerns whatsoever. He was 40 minutes late to my appointment and did not look me in the eye. He cut me off repeatedly and dismissed my symptoms. Before he completed a procedure he stated that he wouldn't find anything. This was a horrible experience and I will never go back to this facility because of it.

Warm, personable, knowledgeable.

Very professional

Very pleased with manner and medical procedures

Did not feel like a new patient. Offered options for treatment and he heard my opinion. Looking forward to my future care with him

I had a great experience start to finish with Dr Drew Locandro and his staff. They clearly helped me understand my diagnosis and treatment options. Highly recommended.

very thorough and personable! Thanks.

Dr. Locandro is always honest and kind. He tells you what he's doing while he's doing it to keep you calm. He provides his patients with options and an explanation of each option that is easily understood.

Put me at ease and corrected mistakes made by other practitioners. Good bedside manner.

Dr. Locandro LISTENS, and is courteous and informative in his discussions with me. He addresses all of my concerns in a manner that I can easily understand.

Dr. Locandro has excellent patient manner and presented well thought out ranges of treatment.

Dr Locandro is extremely knowledgeable. He takes time and explains exactly what is going on. The office personnel are equally kind and knowledgeable. Excellent visit.

Professional, very pleasant.

He was very ugly to answer my questions , and no nice at all

He was great! I was seen quickly and he was very professional.

I had a blocked nasal passage that brought me to an ENT for the first time. Dr. Locandro was very professional and I was diagnosed with a deviated septum. Months later I scheduled a septoplasty with turbinate reduction surgery. The whole process went very quickly and smoothly. There were no complications and everything in my follow up consultation looked great! The scheduling, billing, surgery, and post surgical consultation were all very smooth and easy. I had a great experience!

Personable, professional and knowledgeable.

Answered our questions. Friendly!

I like this doctor. He explained things to me so I could understand.

Dr. Drew always has time for me, and explains issues. I don’t feel rushed, and I feel he cares about me. Wayne Randle Dallas, Ga

We trustable thank Dr Locandro the first time for my son surge. Best ENT in Georgia.

NW ENT is the most pleasant, efficient, courteous doctor's office that I've ever visited. Stress no more about going to the doctor!

Dr Locandro listen and explained everything to me.

Maybe my condition was easy to diagnose but I felt like I was on an assembly line. For how much my co-pay was, I feel like I was just pushed through with the doctor. Audiologist was great though and the doctor was very nice. I just didn’t have the best experience and didn’t even get the doctor I made an appointment for... (Gery) so was also upset that they changed my doctor....

Best care ever!

Professional and personable -- overall good experience with staff as well as the doc. Thanks!

Sorry, I don't see him
