I would highly recommend Dr. Cavanaugh to anyone for ear, nose and throat problems. He was very thorough and asked all the right questions. The medication he prescribed worked perfectly and now I have no more symptoms! The front office staff is very caring and helpful.

My teen daughter is a patient of Dr. Cavanaugh. She is seeing him for a smell/taste disorder (Parosmia/Dysgeusia) caused from Covid. He has been extremely thorough, taking time to listen intently to her. He has made sure her weight is healthy and even asked about her mental health. He wanted to know the amount we were paying for medication and if our deductible had been met to determine the next appointment. He continues to encourage us and research with colleagues, understanding how difficult this is. She is slowly getting better and always feels more positive leaving his office. I would highly recommend him. We have not been to a specialist that is as honest, caring and knowledgable.

After several weeks of my heath concerns with other doctors to no avail, I was recommended to this office. In one visit he had me feeling 100% better with much needed follow ups set up and ready. I wish I would have started with these wonderful providers first. Nothing but praise and my deepest thanks to your office!!! Thank you so much for all you have done for me.

Dr. Cavanaugh has performed a tonsillectomy on two of my kids and ear tubes in one as well. Such a fabulous surgeon! He really knows what he is doing and does it so well! I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for this type of doctor.

As a new resident of the state, it is often difficult to find new general physicians and specialists for healthcare. My wife found Dr. Cavanaugh by looking through testimonials; so it is only fit that I write one as well. Dr. Cavanaugh has cared for both my wife and me over the last 3 months. Each visit he takes great care to fully understand our complications and asks us detailed questions to help him identify the possible root cause. He is systematic, thorough, and documents his findings. Because of this, on any return trip, he is quickly back up to speed on our cases. He has done a wonderful job taking the time to make sure our issues are resolved. I could not imagine finding another specialist that puts forth the effort, knowledge, and experience than Dr. Cavanaugh did. Thank you Dr. Cavanaugh for your care and willingness to go the extra mile for us!

After experiencing scheduling difficulties and poor care from a different ENT clinic, I sought out the services of another ENT specialist. Fortunately for me, I found Dr. Kevin Cavanaugh at Front Range Otolaryngology. The staff is wonderful and the office is warm and welcoming. Dr. Cavanaugh is very intelligent and has shown commitment to solving my health issues. He will gather a lot of information regarding your problem, take notes, and refer back to those notes to ensure appropriate action is taken for your symptoms. I appreciate his experience and wide range of knowledge. While we are still addressing my issues, I know I am in good hands with Dr. Cavanaugh as my physician.

Dr Cavanaugh was so helpful to me. I have been having breathing problems since I was a teenager and thought for sure he would recommend surgery. He was able to help me significantly with alternative treatments to avoid any sort of surgery whatsoever. I highly recommend Dr Cavanaugh and his team.

I have used this practice for facial surgery, ENT problems, and hearing aids. Dr. Cavanaugh is a very thorough and complete physician, and spends the time to diagnose and treat your conditions diligently. Dr. Barak also provided good service in the choice of the hearing aids. I recommend them both.

I have worked with Dr. Cavanaugh in the OR for about 13 years. I can honestly say he is wonderful. He is highly skilled and very thorough. Over the years I have seen him do incredible work surgically.I was confident and comfortable enough with him to recently become a patient.Just as expected, he was just as great in the office. He communicated well, made me feel very comfortable with the treatment plan moving forward and was cost conscious which I appreciated. I didn’t feel rushed or “like a number” at all. Not to mention, he is just an all around great guy. Kind and down to earth.The staff is friendly, welcoming, and made my appointments go smooth and efficient. I spoke with Brenda the most and appreciated all her help very much. I felt comfortable with all of them.I will gladly recommend this practice to friends and family in the future.

To Whom It May Concern,I, Glenn Bark, would like to share the good news that Dr. Cavanaugh was able to successfully remove more than 90% of my dizziness and lack of balance. These conditions followed my open heart surgery eight yearspreviously. Each year they become worse . My cardiologist referred me to Dr. Cavanaugh who introduced me to the Epley Method of treatment. After a few appointments there was a vast difference in less dizziness and improved balance. If there was any dizziness away from the office, I followed his instructions that brought me relief. I feel now that I have finally found peace of mind. I deeply appreciate all the time and effortby Dr. Cavanaugh to help me to enjoy a new life for again.

Dr. Kavanaugh is the best!1. The initial exam is very thorough.2. He will not perform unnecessary surgical procedures even if you want a certain procedure because you have self diagnosed your own problem. He will not do a procedure unless he diagnoses you and thinks the procedure is the best solution to your problems. He will try other approaches first. These approaches can save you a lot of time, money and discomfort.3. He will work diligently to find a solution to your problems.4. He listens very carefully to you during your appointments to see what is working for you and about your current symptoms.5. I got referred to Dr. Kavanaugh by my primary care physician because my wife was about to lose her mind from my snoring at night.6. Due to Dr. Kavanaughs course of treatment I have experienced a 90% reduction in snoring, a 95% reduction in my seasonal allergies, an improvement in my sense of smell, hearing and a change in my singing voice (I am a Tenor in the Church Choir) that allows me to hit higher notes more clearly and easily.If you are having ear, nose and throat issues I recommend you make an appointment and go see him.My wife says Dr. Kavanaugh is her Hero for fixing my snoring!

I found Dr. Cavanaugh to be very thorough, methodical, and informative during each of my visits. I appreciated his efforts to resolve my nasal problems (polyps, sinus infection, and nasal congestion) in a non-surgical manner. As it turned out, I did require surgery to resolve these problems. He thoroughly explained the procedures he was going to do and the amount of time it was going to take for the surgery. I appreciated his perseverance in treating and solving my condition. I will continue to seek his care for any future problems I may encounter.

I really cant say enough good things about Dr. Cavanaugh. One trait I look for in a Doctor, which is very difficult to find, is the ability listen and not be dismissive. I absolutely love this about Dr. Cavanaugh. He has been a godsend to me. He listens to my complaints, which have been many, takes everything into consideration and then formulates a plan. I am very to lucky to have found him and I highly recommend him.Further... His staff is fantastic! Its difficult these days with restrictions and such. His staff is careful yet still friendly and delightful to deal with. This is a great place and I appreciate each and every one of them.

I started seeing Dr. Cavanaugh about a year ago to help with my snoring. Before Dr. Cavanaugh, the doctors I did see told me I needed surgery. After a few visits with Dr. Cavanaugh, and following his recommendations of better eating/drinking habits, over the counter antacids, and regular exercise, I no longer snore. I have saved time, money, and the stress/anxiety of going through a needless surgery. I now sleep better, feel more energized, and all it took were a few appointments. Added bonus are all the great folks that work in the office. Very friendly and very, very accommodating. Highly recommend.

Ive spent a couple of years with my general practitioner, trying to figure out what was causing this nasal congestion/infection that just wouldnt go away. We went through this repetitive cycle of steroids, antibiotics and inhalers. I would feel better for a couple of months and invariably, the symptoms would return and I was right back where I started. After a couple of years of this I was referred (by my GP) to Dr. Cavanaugh. Wow! What a difference he has made in my life. In the first 5 minutes he figured out the cause of my problem - nasal polyps. Not exactly what I wanted to hear; but at least I know what the root cause is. Although there may not be an ultimate cure for this, I appreciate Dr. Cavanaugh s approach - We are going to try to manage the condition, and avoid surgery, if at all possible. And, I really like his style - when Im in his office, I feel like I have 100% of his attention. He doesnt talk down to me and he gives it to me straight. Hes a no-nonsense guy, but at the same time he will directly answer any questions or concerns I may have. I might add that he has a very efficient and friendly staff.If youre in need of an Ear, Nose & Throat Doctor; do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Dr. Cavavaugh - you wont be disappointed!

Nobody understands ENT health issues like I do; Ive had three nose surgeries and have met a lot of doctors! In my opinion, Dr. Kevin Cavanaugh is one of the best ENT doctors.

My daughter went in to see Dr. Cavanaugh and his team and she was treated for ENT concerns. Even with insurance, this visit cost us almost $600.00 and this was for a nasal endoscopy (350.00) and earwax removal(85.00). The office visit itself was $260.00!! They did not inform my daughter of the costs before procedures nor of the costly office visit, which I believe they should have. They let her know on her way out that she would have a big bill. They were also unwilling to lower the cost of the office visit. I suggest anyone that goes to this office get a confirmation of ALL charges.

Dr. Cavanaugh is the best ENT doctor who has ever cared for me. I came to him with chronic ear, nose and throat problems after radiation treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer. He has treated them successfully not only during office visits but also by performing surgery, and has monitored them closely over the years that I have been seeing him. I had the misfortune to have tongue cancer recently, and he arranged to have the best tongue surgeon in the state excise it; thereafter, he has monitored it constantly. He is empathetic as well as professional; he has a tremendous bedside manner.

Dr. Cavanaugh told me about the under-the-tongue allergy drops and started me on them about three-and-a-half years ago. They worked, and I stopped taking them a month ago because the allergy symptoms are pretty well gone. I still take a daily allergy pill, but all the other symptoms like itchy eyes just didnt happen this spring. Such a relief! Amazingly, my identical twin sister has been getting monthly allergy shots for nearly 40 years -- and is still getting them! I much prefer the allergy drops approach, which saved me from monthly doctor visits and shots -- and the expense of both. I talked my brother-in-law into the drops, as he hates shots, and he is also doing well. The drops are a wonderful alternative.

Beware of the billing department. Never received 1 statement in the mail of what I owed. Never received even 1 courtesy call to inform me of past due statements but 8 months later sent to collections with no option to rectify the situation except to go through collections. Ive never dealt with a doctors office who doesnt at least try sending a statement certified mail or picks up the phone. I would have cleared up my amount owed immediately. I had no idea. Be careful and make sure you handle your own statements so you do not end up in collections almost a year later as I did.

Review №51

While we were happy with the surgery performed by Dr. Cavanaugh, I agree with other reviews saying the office staff and customer service are atrocious. They were rude and short with us on multiple visits and phone conversations, and the nurse has zero bedside manner. Office staff has no training or understanding of how insurance and billing work, which cost me several hours on the phone with them and insurance trying to help them understand deductibles and co-pays. They even refused to refund a credit that resulted from charging us some of what insurance had already paid. They said their policy is to keep the credit on file in case we ever come back in. As in if my son needs his tonsils out again?? Please beware... sketchy and unpleasant experience for us all around.

I saw Dr. Cavanaugh a little over a year ago for the first time. I had been suffering from repeated sinusitis for a number of years, going from doctor to doctor seeking help. Most of the time they just prescribed antibiotics. One told me that I would probably eventually need surgery. I asked one ENT PA if being sick all fall and winter every year was what I was going to have to live with for the rest of my life and she said yes!. Eventually a friend suggested that I go to National Jewish. They didnt find the cause either. Thankfully I went to a new primary care physician who referred me to Dr. Cavanaugh. He was able to diagnose my problem and I am thrilled to say that I have my life back! I have not had sinusitis in over a year! I am deeply grateful to Dr. Cavanaugh. He is extremely thorough, compassionate and an outstanding diagnostician. I highly recommend Dr. Cavanaugh!

If you wanted to be treated like a real person and not just some patient in a long line of patients… go see Dr. Cavanaugh.After an ER visit I was admitted to the hospital for a very severe and recurring condition. The hospital staff could do nothing for me except for attempt to stop my episode only to have it start again within a few hours. Dr. Cavanaugh was reassuring in a very frightening time and was very available. The Dr. went far above and beyond what I have ever seen a specialist or primary care physician do for a patient by being reachable and continuing to offer solutions to my challenging condition. While it took multiple procedures the issue was resolved and I was assured that there were additional steps that could be taken if I continued to have any issues.The doctor’s office staff was excellent and very caring. While I was having a much longer than expected procedure in his office they even bought lunch for my wife while she waited.Absolute professional with care for the person’s well being!

Over the years, weve had very good experiences with Dr. Cavanaugh and team. More than ten years ago Dr. Cavanaugh put tubes in our daughter ears, and he recently removed her tonsils.Both surgeries were managed with a degree of excellence and our daughters experience was very positive. Dr. Cavanaugh takes the time to ask the right questions and cares about his patients.Most importantly, during the time of preparing and leading up to surgery, as well as post-op, we felt very well informed. Dr. Cavanaugh was very helpful, and we felt well prepared as to how best care for her tonsillectomy recovery.Dr. Cavanaugh is a wonderful doctor, we highly recommend his excellent service, medical expertise, professionalism, and patient care.

We had a problem that appeared to be an allergy issue in most ways, but allergy tests were negative. Our very good family doctor continued investigating allergies, meanwhile my 3rd grade daughter spent a year sniffling, blowing her nose, and talking like she had a clogged nose, leading to distraction in school of herself and others, loss of sleep, and failure to be as thriving and successful as her potential. A friend recommended Dr. Cavanaugh and in one office visit he quickly discovered that her adenoids were too large and should be removed. They helped us feel confident and comfortable about the diagnosis, got surgery scheduled efficiently (which saved us money due to insurance reasons), and provided excellent pre-op, operative, and post-op care. Dr. Cavanaugh is clearly very smart and capable. He is an excellent doctor with a great staff, and his expertise changed our daughters life for the better!

I was referred to Dr. Cavanaugh for a tonsillectomy after years of chronic tonsillitis and other problems. Dr. Cavanaugh was quick to agree that they needed to be removed, and was very thorough in telling me what to expect from the surgery. There were some scheduling difficulties to overcome, and Dr. Cavanaugh was gracious enough to squeeze me in for surgery the following week. My surgery went great, and I felt comfortable knowing what to expect in the coming weeks. What really stood out to me was that Dr. Cavanaugh called me on multiple occasions in the days following my surgery to make sure I was doing well and wasnt experiencing any complications or unnecessary pain. As an adult, I was aware that the recovery was going to be rough, but I have felt taken care of through this entire process. I would highly recommend Dr. Cavanaugh to anybody that needs his services-he takes care of his patients in a way that most doctors these days dont take the time to do. I am grateful that I was referred to Dr. Cavanaugh, because I truly received first rate care from him and his entire team.

Review №68

I am very unimpressed with the level of service of this office. I went there two times, the second because the Dr. Cavanaugh wanted to follow up with me on the first appointment I had primarily to address major ear pain and inability to hear, in addition to me wanting to address a chronic coughing issue I had.First off, plan on waiting 30 minutes after your scheduled appointment to see the doctor. They are not prompt by any means, and dont seem care about the time of the patient.Furthermore, once Cavanaugh saw me we were only scheduled for 10 minutes. This astounds me because in the majority of offices I visit I get scheduled for at least a half hour. The time isnt such a bother since we were able to address one issue I came in for, not the second issue but I would settle for a second visit for that problem, but because of the amount he charges for that 10 minutes of time, which Ill get to shortly.The general manager there is an extremely curt and unhelpful person. When I called shortly before my appointment to determine whether I should come in for my second appointment, which I had scheduled earlier and had not received a reminder call or voicemail for (they told me theyd call to confirm the day before), I wanted to know whether we should delay the appointment since the things Cavanaugh wanted me to work on hadnt quite taken effect with my ear issues. The first conclusion she jumps to is that Im trying to cancel and that there is a cancellation fee for that. I asked her if she could confer with the doctor to see if it would be beneficial for me to come in today or delay a few days and she quite rudely stated that hes busy and that I should come to my scheduled appointment, basically telling me any change in my ear pain or any effect or lack of effect of any recommendations from the doctor doesnt matter to this appointment.The thing I have the greatest problem with is their billing standards. They have a base fee of $150 for their 10-minute appointments, which, while not too unreasonable for an office visit, is quite high for such a short period of time. The thing that bugs me is that they double billed me for the time. During the visit, Cavanaugh performed a procedure on my ears to clear the canals. During the same time that was originally scheduled for the base office visit fee of $150, he completed the procedure. Except, instead of qualifying it as part of the visit, they decide to bill me another $190 for the time that was already covered by the $150. Seems a bit extreme for me.I still have ear pain and, although I certainly don’t blame Cavanaugh for it since diagnosis can be difficult, I’m unimpressed that I would have to visit yet again for another visit and experience all the same sub par customer service and pay another $300-$400 for 10 minutes of time to try to solve an issue I had come for two times before.All in all, what came out of my pocket was $390 for under 30 minutes of actual time with Dr. Cavanaugh. Insurance covered some of it, but I’d still be writing this review if they had paid all of it. Double billing for time seems a ludicrous business practice to me, and if someone wants to pay cash here know that they will likely be billing you $1200 an hour. If your insurance isn’t so great, you’ll be hit with maybe $800 an hour. This place is probably really great for clients that have terrific insurance that can cover the full amount, but still, should they be getting paid, by you or by insurance, $1200/hr for poor customer service, 10 minute appointments that don’t address the problem the first or the second time, and a 30 minute wait doing nothing with the opportunity to be productive elsewhere in life? I’d say no, but you can make that decision yourself.Dr. Cavanaugh himself is a pretty knowledgeable and nice guy, however, the support staff, billing policies, and general experience of going to this office are abysmal. I couldnt imagine anyone billing their clients $1200 an hour unless they were one of the best attorneys in the world or a surgeon. Cavanaugh is neither of these.

For 9 months I was struggling with chronic neck and jaw pain. I also had headaches and dizziness. I visited 16 specialists and had a myriad of tests done. Although each doctor said everything was normal, I knew in my heart there was something wrong. I had even contemplated calling Mayo Clinic and setting up appointments there. I decided to go visit Dr. Cavanaugh. At my first appointment, Dr. Cavanaugh patiently went over my medical history and suggested I have an exam to see if I had vertigo. He also concurred that these symptoms could possibly be from clenching my teeth. His recommendations were to begin Physical Therapy and to wear a mouth guard while sleeping. Within a few weeks my dizziness had disappeared, my neck started to feel so much better, my jaw began to feel less locked and my headaches were gone. I am so relieved that Dr. Cavanaugh was able to help me get back to a normal life for my family. I truly appreciate his medical expertise and I highly recommend him.

I thought there was no solution for the Tinnitus Id been suffering for years. It was getting worse and interfering with conversations. I’m in technical support and on the phone much of the day and thought Id have to get hearing aids.After an in-office hearing test by the audiologist, Gina Muhlberg, it was determined I did not have a hearing loss warranting hearing aids. I thought, “Now what? What is left to do?”Dr. Cavanaugh examined my ears, nose and throat and determined the best solution.All I needed to do was to stop clenching my teeth! This is easier said than done, but after a month of practicing awareness of jaw clenching I had 20% reduction of tinnitus. And Dr. Cavanaugh said he thinks I can get this ringing to be intermittent rather than constant! Now I’m using a mouth guard at night and expecting great results.

In July of 2015, I suffered a surfing accident that injured my left tympanic membrane. Dr. Cavanaugh determined that I had a 40% tear in the membrane. He explained very clearly the implications and the possible treatments. He suggested we try the simplest of methods to repair it, a paper patch over the perforation. He warned me that the chances of success werent great, but it was worth a first attempt as it was simple and more cost effective. I agreed as I didnt want to have surgery (one of the treatment options). Dr. Cavanaugh left no doubt that this was a bit of a long-shot. After the procedure, he was very accommodating when I had concerns that the patch came off and got me in quickly to check on it. All was well though.Just yesterday, he removed the patch and was extremely surprised to find that the perforation healed up completely! Mine was the largest perforation that he had ever healed by that technique.Id like to thank Dr. Cavanaugh for being so professional and willing to try the simplest of procedures first before jumping straight to surgery. He saved me from a great deal of expense and discomfort.

My experience with Dr. Cavanaugh has been exceptional. He is truly a gifted doctor. My relationship with Dr. Cavanaugh and his staff goes back four years when I first visited him about difficulty in breathing. His concern went directly to my well-being as he recommended completing a sleep study to rule out the potentially fatal event of sleep apnea. After the sleep study came back normal, he began diving into questioning aspects of my life, what I eat, what I do in my free time, etc. and he made me feel comfortable to open up to him. He was sure to exhaust every option there was before surgery. He determined that my nose was deviated in two places, and that was the cause to my breathing problems. A few years later I had a good job that offered great health insurance. I went back to see Dr. Cavanaugh to re-visit the idea of correcting my deviation. We decided surgery was the only option to correct this. This was my first surgery and I was pretty nervous. Going under for the first time is unnerving because I did not know how my body would react to the anesthesia or other elements. Dr. Cavanaugh reassured me and made me feel comfortable. After the surgery it turned out that not only was my septum deviated, but it had been fractured due to blunt force trauma for years. The surgery was only supposed to be 90 minutes, but Dr. Cavanaugh took swift action to correct the fracture as well, extending the length of the surgery to a little over three hours. When I woke up I surprisingly enough could breath unbelievable well and I noticed an immediate change in the increase of air flow in my nostrils. When I went home I waited for the effects of the anesthesia to ware off. The night after the surgery I sneezed and was concerned because my nose started bleeding. I paged Dr. Cavanaugh and within minutes he returned my call on a friday night to address my concerns and to lend comforting words indicating a sneeze would not affect the results of the surgery. The next day I had another concern, and again Dr. Cavanaugh called me within minutes, this time I could tell he was with his family as I heard children in the back ground. This shows true dedication and a committment to patients to see a doctor go out of his way to address his clients needs and concerns. I respect Dr. Cavanaugh more than any other doctor I have visited and I am sure he gave me the best possible experience and results I could have hoped for. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone in need of a skilled and experienced Otolaryngologist who takes the needs of his clients first. I am confident that anyone in the care of Dr. Cavanaugh is in the care of the best doctor with the broadest skill set capable of performing amazing procedures which prove to be life changing. I know my procedure was life changing and now I can enjoy life with the ability to breath through my nose. Thank you Dr. Cavanaugh for everything, words cannot express my gratitude.

All the staff and Dr. Cavanaugh are so caring and helpful! I had gone to FOUR doctors and was completely dismissed by all of them. I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Cavanaugh, he took a sample, and admitted me to the hospital that day with a branchial cleft cyst that was infected. If it werent for him and his extremely strong work ethic I wouldve been in incredible pain for much longer! Im soooo grateful I found them :)

I went to see Dr. Cavanaugh for a problem I was having. He gave me a through exam and said that perhaps a contributing factor was acid reflux. I was really surprised to hear this, as I have never experienced heart burn etc. He prescribed some medication, but the best advice he gave me was to change my diet! After one month, I have never felt better in my life! It turns out that I am one of 1000s that suffer from silent acid reflux. If I hadnt consulted Dr. Cavanaugh I may never have discovered this condition. I cant thank Dr. Cavanaugh enough! And the problem for which I originally sought treat has greatly improved as well. Thanks again, Dr. Cavanaugh!

Dr. Cavanaugh has literally turned my wifes life around. For long time she has suffered vertigo, facial and sinus pain and hoarseness. Two other doctors diagnosed her with an acute sinus infection yet none of their treatments solved the problem. Finally she went to Dr. Cavanaugh upon a friends recommendation fully expecting she would need surgery. Surgery turned out to not be necessary inasmuch as Dr. Cavanaugh had her sinus infection gone in a couple of weeks.For years she had lived with on and off vertigo and it was getting more frequent and worse. Dr. Cavanaughs treatment gave her instant improvement and after a few months her vertigo is totally gone. She see it as a medical miracle...I am sure Dr. Cavanaugh sees it as good medical practice.She also has experienced almost constant hoarseness for years. Dr. Cavanaugh diagnosed the cause as acid reflex and without any medications his recommendations and treatments has her acid reflex under control and her hoarseness gone!!!Dr. Cavanaugh is skilled, caring doctor...we recommend him highly!!

After suffering six weeks of relentless vertigo, my PCP referred me to Dr. Kevin Cavanaugh who patiently and compassionately listened to my concerns. Dr. Cavanaugh concluded an Epley treatment would benefit my condition. As quickly as the vertigo overwhelmed me, Dr. Cavanaugh’s treatment healed me. A few years passed when I began suffering severe onset headaches which lead to various tests and a return visit to Dr. Cavanaugh. Once again, Dr. Cavanaugh patiently listened to my symptoms while asking thoughtful and educated questions. After only two visits, my medical condition resolved significantly. Dr. Cavanaugh treats the whole person, thinking outside the box with long lasting therapeutic results. I hope I don’t have to see Dr. Cavanaugh again soon but I certainly would not hesitate if I did! Dr. Cavanaugh has proven to me he is a forward-thinking physician whose patients’ welfare is first and foremost.

I experienced balance issues, dizziness, and headaches for over five months. After numerous tests, including an echocardiogram and brain MRI, and no diagnosis, I was referred to Dr. Cavanaugh. During my first appointment, the doctor took the time to dig deep into my health history and list of symptoms. He informed me that the source of my issues was both an inner ear problem and teeth grinding or clenching of the jaw. Dr. Cavanaugh treated the inner ear problem over the course of two weeks, and my balance issues disappeared after the final treatment. He recommended wearing a mouth guard at night which has helped eliminate the headaches. The doctor also recommended a physical therapist to help release the tension in my neck caused by the grinding and clenching. The PT has worked wonders. I am know able to walk in a straight line and have not had a dizzy spell since I began seeing the physical therapist. I appreciate Dr. Cavanaughs attention to detail and problem solving skills. It is obvious from reading the other reviews that Dr. Cavanaugh has a knack for finding the source of patients issues that other specialists could not. He also seems concerned about finding low cost, yet effective solutions to these problems. He is not a doctor who thoughtlessly orders test after test. I highly recommend Dr. Cavanaugh. Thanks, Doc.
