Maybe I missed something, but I feel like I’m reading about a different doctor in these reviews... I came in for a pretty routine procedure- removing some impacted earwax. In previous years at other ENTs, when I had this done, softener was put in my ear and then sucked out gently with a vacuum. The doctor came in, didn’t introduce his assistant, who stood there awkwardly, didn’t make any eye contact and asked me patronizingly when was the last time I had my ears cleaned. When I thought he was examining my ears first before cleaning them, he proceeded to just forcefully pull the wax out of my ears. It hurt terribly, and now a few days later, despite him saying my ear canals are completely clear, I’m fairly certain the insides of my ears are a bit swollen as they still feel full and my hearing is still muffled. He gave me an impromptu hearing test that day, so I know my hear was fine on that day. I would say proceed with caution when seeing him. Staff there was incredible and really made you feel comfortable. Thank goodness for them.

My 72 year old mom had thyroid surgery in July. Dr. Requena removed several large polyps. The survery was an incredible success. The recovery was fast and painless. She was up and moving in a couple of weeks. Her vocal cords were untouched. They were not damaged during surgery. I recommend anyone to see Dr. Requena for any ENT issues. He and his staff are very professional.

Dr. Requena was referred to me by a friend after a horrible experience with another Dr. That experience was a blessing...for it lead me to Dr. Requena. His bedside manner is awesome. I was a very heavy smoker diagnosed with polyps on my vocal cords. He was honest with me, showed me what he saw & encouraged me to take control of my own outcome, with patience. He was empathetic & never belittled me; honest, but talked to me like a human not another number. He has an amazing bedside manner. I am happy to tell the world that we no longer have to visit because I am 15 months smoke free & polyps healed. His team of nurses & office staff are equally supportive & a wonderful reflection of his work ethic. Thank you Dr. Requena for taking a chance on me.

Absolutely the best ENT I’ve ever been to. Very patient and helpful with my elderly father. Great place with super polite and friendly staff as well. Thanks Doc.

I had septoplasty done with Dr. Requena in August this year and I just wanted to say this has been an exceptional experience!! Dr. Requena is a wonderful doctor with equally professional and supportive team of nurses who all share excellent work ethics. Everyone on his team made me feel comfortable and safe. Although I heard many horror stories from people who had this procedure done in the past, I personally did not experience any difficulties at all. My surgery went off without a hitch. I had almost no bleeding or pain, no swelling, and am extremely happy with the outcome! I highly recommend Dr. Requena!

Nice. Very efficient. Highly recommend.

I had a great experience at the Pasadena office. They squeezed me in same day because of a hearing problem I was experiencing. The audiologist, Dr. Requeno and his support staff were all awesome!

He has always taken the time to answer my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Requena as an ear, nose and throat Doctor.
