I'm done and will never darken the doors to see Dr William Blythe again. I waited one and half hours in the lobby the last visit and then he was the rudest doctor that I have ever talked with. He acted like I should have known what was wrong with me before I came to in to his office. He asked me questions like who told you and how do you know several times. Umm, I believe that's why I'm here to find out from you. He was so unprofessional and I felt like an idiot for even using him in the first place. I spent out of pocket well over $1500.00 and still have the problem that I originally went in for. Just find someone else if at all possible if you need a ear nose and throat specialist please. By the way his wife Meredith was quite the opposite but I still will never use them again.

Dr. Blythe has been my doctor for over 20 years. I have not had an issue with his professionalism or knowledge. His staff is friendly. I recommend Dr. Blythe every chance I get. He is human, he does make mistakes, he doesn't have the answers everytime. But he is a good doctor.

Very disappointed. Staff unfriendly and unwilling to help. They are a monopoly in town and it shows. I made the drive to a nearby city. The ENT there was shocked at the treatment plan from Dr. Blythe. His prescription dosage for me was untested and considered dangerous. I sought a second opinion and another doctor verified that Dr. Blythe had prescribed a dangerous dosage of the medicine he gave to me. I'm glad I sought second opinions before having long term health problems from his treatment plan. It is worth your drive to Columbus or Montgomery to find another ENT.

When I remained sick for several month and my general practioner was unable to diagnose my illness, Dr. Blythe was the only Doctor that was able to help me get well. He has a friendly out-going personality, and his nurse is equally friendly.
