I have always been very pleased with Dr. BALBUENA.
Great people and great service.
I was very pleased with the way I was treated and cared for.
Great care
More informative and thorough with all complaints, than most doctors .
Don't change a thing
Great Office
I wouldn't go to any other ENT. Been going to Dr. Balbuena since 2004. The best care.
Was very please with first visit
Dr. BALBUENA, Is an excellent head, nose and throat doctor, he demonstrates great wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of the field of medicine he is in. He is well mannered, courteous, explains the pros and cons in what he is treating a person for. If they will listen to what he says and do what he asks, they will get better soon. We appreciate Dr. LUIS BALBUENA, JR, MD and NATALIE EMERY, NP-C.
See you on next appointment!

Dr. Balbuena and his staff have become friends over the years. I feel they are always glad to see me. And I them!
I appreciate the care I get from them.
He explained what he was doing and why he did an excellent job of explaining what was going on with me.
Love Dr Balbuena!
My nose bleeding ha stopped completely since my visit.
It’s nice to have professional treatment in my home town. He is respectful and concerned.
not able to get you to file all my bills with my insurance....this has been going on since 2014! every 3 months you do not file with my insurance until I insist. this will be the last time I will insist since it is my understanding that If you do not file with my insurance I will not be liable for the payment of the bill.
Awesome
100% cares about patient care and put the focus on quality care!!!
Thank you for your courtesy
