Pretty efficient and well-run office. Audiologist worked me in though I was a bit late due to road closure. She explained every step and did a great job of answering my questions. Dr. Lane listened to my description of the problem I had and did a thorough exam and then discussed what he found with me. Scheduling the appointment was the only downside to the encounter. Their scheduling is very hard to work with as it is centralized for the 3 or 4 offices that they have, and frequently place you on hold for way to long.

The therapists are great but the referral department has a big problem. My husband's doctor faxed a referral on June 14. When we arrived for the appointment on June 20, Asheville Ear, and throat couldn't find it. So we have to make a second appointment to get his hearing tested. In this age of electronics, AEN&T could do better.

I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent care I received. The check-in was efficient. The waiting room was large and easy to maintain sufficient space between clients. Dr. Melvin was personable and effective in his care. I am very happy and highly recommend Asheville Ear Nose & Throat.
