    How was your appointment with Dr. Lygizos?

    Mar 28, 2022
    I was referred to Dr. Lygizos by another doctor. The referring doctor was trying to make up for, I believe, a mistake she made. Dr. Lygizos was honest, straightforward, and reassuring. He performed a nasal test in his office, which was not that bad, and scheduled an ultrasound at a facility more convenient to me. I did research him before scheduling (as I truly disliked the referring doctor) and he was all and more than his reviews claimed. He is the only ENT I would ever see and would recommend him to everyone.
