I’ve waited 2 1/2 years to leave this review. He has the worst bedside manner… he hurt my son by grabbing his cheeks and pushing his head back. My son had a total of 3 abscess 2 in his sinuses and one behind his eye. My son bawled crying for hours. He felt absolutely no remorse for the pain he inflicted on my baby! Then he had the audacity to tell me, he didn’t like my 10 year olds demeanor. While both of my child’s eyes were so swollen he couldn’t even see. Our son has permanent eye damage to one of his eyes and was looking at the possibility of having a craniotomy. I quickly had my baby transported to Emory so he could be treated at children’s healthcare of Atlanta. I’ve worked with and presently work for multiple ENT physicians in Georgia. I can’t believe this Dr works with Peds! Every other Dr and nurse that was in that room apologized to us and told us they were so sorry and how he isn’t a caring physician and has horrible bedside manners. They are CHILDREN! I’ll pray for you and your heart!

Dr. Coticchia really took the time to make sure that my child got the best care possible. He showed a true interest in my family. We have been looking for an ENT doctor for my son for a long time and finally found Dr. Coticchia. It is by far the best care we have received! Great man, great Doctor!

Doctor was very rude. Was not able to give us a diagnosis but wanted to schedule a surgery to see what he could find. Was very unhappy.

Dr. Coticchia was referred by my pediatrician for my son's chronic ear infections. She said he was the best in town. He teaches at the university so he sometimes brings in his medical students but that's ok I figure that it is another check and balance to have so many eyes watching our care. He is a busy doctor but still takes time to make sure I have all questions answered. He did surgery on my child and I was so nervous but everything turned out so well. I'm very thankful to have found such a great doctor

by far the best doctor, my daughter was having croup 10 times a year or more, i was going to see an aleregy specialist and it was doing nothing, so i decided to find a ENT doctor, not only did Dr. Coticchia solve my daughters issue, he has made it 10 times better. i would highly reccomend this doctor. even his bedside manor after a scope was great. my daughter can now enjoy a full life and it's due to the Doctor's we have met there.

I went to the office twice with my newborn for a hearing screening exam with an appointment, and waited 45 min just to be told that the responsible employee who was supposed to perform the exam was on vacation the 1st time, and had emergency the 2nd time. The office called me to confirm the appointment, but didn't call to tell me that the employee is not there, and never informed me that they will not be able to perform the exam. I believe that the scheduling person doesn't care enough about the patients, and the office has very poor management.
