Dr. Amanda Stapleton was phenomenal. I will highly recommend her and refer all my pediatric patients to her. I wish she was an adult ENT as well.

Dr Stapleton and her staff are wonderful. They always listen and I never feel rushed. That's probably why appointments are booked so far out.

Dr Stapleton was amazing. She was so patient and caring toward our son, who has autism. Anything medical scares him so its amazing to have a dr who truly cares and takes the time
