Very good and consistent care. Flexible and listens very well. A very good experience.
My 1st time seeing Dr. Ummat. He is an excellent listener and appeared to be very thoughtful regarding what he could do for me. He also seems to engage his team members in the exam so that it runs smoothly. That day was the 1st day for the nursepractitioner-in-training to be engaging with real patients and she also exhibited extraordinary respect and skill in asking questions and examining my ear and throat. Dr.Ummat guided her in techniques for exam.
It is such an honor to have Dr. Ummat as my doctor. He is kind, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. He informs me of all aspects of my care and includes me in the decision process. I wish everyone could have such exceptional care.

Dr. Ummat is a terrific physician. This was my 3rd post surgery appointment.

Dr Sunil Ummat has always listened attentively to my concerns and addressed each one with clear precise next steps and medicine or surgery as needed. I honestly cannot thank Dr Ummat enough for all of the treatment he has provided over the years for my eustachian tube dysfunction. I had seen other ENTs prior and they could not solve my problem. Dr Ummat solved my problem and now I have functioning ears and breathing better than I ever had in my life. He is truly the best in class ENT, and I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone who has ENT needs. Thank you Dr Ummat!
