Dr. Mark Syms is the best. I was recommended by another surgeon due to his experience and specialty. He explained and answered my questions and did my surgery. I am so happy that I chose Dr Syms do my surgery. He truly is the best.

I only gave him two stars because he successfully cleaned hard buildup in my father's ears. He had terrible bedside manner, did not want to listen to anything we had to say and when my my elderly father was grimacing, he told him his reaction was disproportional to what he was doing. He also made adjustments to the chair without any care or consideration to the fact that my father has back problems. Will not go back to this doctor.
