Dr. Naseri is one of the most caring, extremely professional specialists in this field. Our son ended up having a total of 3 surgeries for a very rare type of cardiovascular tumor in his sinuses, moving laterally to his jaw and all the way back into sphenoid sinuses next to his brain and attached to carotid artery. Had countless number of appointments, consultations and procedures. If it wasn't for him this emotionally difficult and for our son scarry times I don't know how we would be able to get through all this. We can't thank Dr. Naseri enough for everything that he did for our son and us. He is the best in his profession and this field. Thank you, thank You, Thank you!
Went in on Tuesday was in surgery on Friday. Dr Naseri had an opening and fit me in. Very thorough job what a great team he has. Post op visit took time to go over everything. Wish all my Doctors where this good . Thanks again everyone (Great Job).
Dr. Naseri is fantastic. I recently had a severely deviated septum corrected as well work done to my sinuses. The office staff, especially, Andrea, was great in helping to work through scheduling and insurance issues. Dr. Naseri was fantastic and the surgery went better than I anticipated. I would highly recommend Dr. Nasseri to anyone who is needing an ENT.
My daughter and I have been a patient of Dr Naseri's for years. I am so thankful for him. A couple of years ago he did my sinus and sleep apnea surgery and I am so grateful for his guidance and knowledge for the surgery. I am so much better now because I had the surgey. We just love him and his nursing staff. I highly recommend the North Florida Sinus Center.
Dr Naseri and staff were excellent!! Very compassionate and informative. Thanks to all of you
Doctor got me heading in the right direction where others could not and Dana has been fantastic.
Talented and Genius physician who really cares about his patients. Excellent experience.
My wife received careful and professional care taking into consideration her special needs Highly Recommended Dr Naseri and his staff!
Dr. Naseri was amazing. He actually took his time with me and offered a few different options I could take with the pros and cons of each one. The receptionists were very nice, especially when I called because I got lost on my way there and they had the most patience ever. Cheers to you both. Dana was the absolute best and made me feel so comfortable before and after I talked to the doctor. I HIGHLY recommend. And I’ve been to an ENT that was recommending things that ended up being unnecessary. I appreciate their honesty
Dr. Naseri was great, I felt heard and he took my symptoms seriously. He took his time researching my history and explaining things to me. Also, great office and staff, they were all so kind! Thanks Melanie!
