I told Dr. Love of a strange sound I am hearing with and without hearing aids in place. When I shake my head, as when drying my wet hair with a towel, I hear a strange ringing (like an old phone ring). It stops when my head is still. It is not in the hearing aids; it is in my head! She suggests another hearing test which I will schedule when the next book of appointments opens up--July, I think.
Excellent care!
Thank you for the great service. Keep up the good work.
Won't be back.
Great job! Thank you!
Outgoing checkout clerk was not prepared for me and didn’t the pink slip for further instructions. She said that an email would come which I have not received
Dr. Love listened and answered my questions.
The provider should be more prepared and have reviewed the case notes of the patient before entering the room
I will have phone follow-ups for blood work and diagnosis medications.
Keep up the great work
Both the hearing test person and Dr. Love were very professional and personable.

Just want Dr Love to know I am following through on her treatment per/diagnosis. Thank you so much!
Looking forward to the care she will provide as her patient.
A credit to the hospital
Dr. Love is very good.
Overall pleasant experience
Dr Lily Love is awesome.
It was explained to me hearing aids weren’t going to help me much and some what discouraged me when I left?
Keep up the great work with your patients. Thank you.
I will be canceling my follow up appointment. I felt very dismissed with most of what I had to say and like a total inconvenience to your day. I hope that maybe I just caught you on an off day but I will be requesting another provider.
She and her staff are professional and friendly
see my previous comments
Thank you for your help
None
I am so unhappy with this appointment.
I love you and only want your care!
Very good.
When someone comes in with a lesion on their tongue . She should also check the ears and the back and sides of the mouth . Could have caught an ear infection.
Thank you again for the excellent care the all of the office staff who I encountered provided.

Sub provider only removed splints and cleared nasal passages.
Dr. Lily Love is an exceptional Doctor. She advocated a necessary procedure for me and my quality of life has vastly improved.
Thank you
I would score her as excellent in all the above questions
Good
I think I've given you a picture. Projected a rather superior attitude. No connection on any level
Keep up the good work!
Good care!
I said oit all up front
The doctor was rushed and I felt she was just trying to get me out of the room.
Read the previous comment. My daughter was referred to Dr. Love. Her colleague did not come through for us. Loretta was not friendly when checking us in. One comment Loretta made was very offensive.
Everything that was gonna be done to me was told to so clear so I could understand. Everyone was so nice
I have seen here before when ENT was separate from Christus and was delighted to see her again. She was very helpful.
I haven’t had enough experience with Dr. Love to answer the other questions in this screen.
Couldn’t be more happy with the time I’ve spent with your staff and Dr Love
I highly recommend Dr. LOVE!
Dr. explained the reason for the delay but was rushed in our meeting.
The problem wasn't that she didn't explain herself. The problem was that she made it clear she would not waste her time helping me with my small and large cysts I was hoping she could remove without leaving scars on my neck and around my ears.
I will keep her as my ENT physician.
Spent maybe 10 minutes with me.
Her assistant was great too!
Staff is great
Very good
Very good provider and staff
The doctor is excellent.
I understand all patients are eagerly waiting to be seen and treated. I like to leave the hospital with confidence that I am on my way of cure and to have treated and my trouble will be solved. Or just make me feel I am in hand. Thank for your care.

Excellent explanations.
Great job! Thank you so much for taking care of me.
Keep up your outstanding customer thank you.
Thank you for making my Mom’s appointment such a positive experience.
Thank you
All good.
Excellent surgeon.
I needed a few questions answered about the prescriptions and nice I received them but the pharmacy was very helpful
None.
Overworked staff! Not enough help
I have a re-occurrence of a tumor in my parotid gland. I am very interested in understanding why it re-occurred after surgery two years ago. Dr. Love indicated she had never seen this kind of re-occurrence. She ordered a CT scan and she will review with me and discuss next steps at a later date.
The audiologist who conducted my hearing test was excellent and seemed to be less pressed for time and was more engaged with me than with the computer.
Very good staff.
Nothing comes to mind.
Thank you so much I’m very happy with the results of the job you made for me
Fine Doctor
Dr Love is just terrific.
She shouldn't speak to people in the way that she does.
Thank you!
To the point on what to expect
Very good experience
Muchisimas gracias por sus cuidados y oroteccion
Great job thanks
Dr was short and I was in the waiting room longer than in with the doctor. Was pretty rude.
Sorry but it’s how I felt
Very satisfied
Thank you Dr. Love!
Thank you for all the fine effort to restore much of my quality of life!
Great visit.
Keep up the good work you guys are doing awesome
Unfortunately Dr. love cannot answer all my questions. Especially how long should I take the Tums supplement
excellent
The doctor should have stopped when I expressed pain as it was obvious I was not numb.
Very quick. No results or after care feedback.
Petra has been a marvelous source of treatments for my chronic rotator cuff injury of the left shoulder that occurred 10 years ago...and reinjured recently with a fall. Delighted to see the growth and expansion of medical/clinical expertise at CSV over the years...essential for our city!
Highly recommend Dr Love.
I feel confident with Dr. Love doing my nasal sx.
She’s so nice dr.
I felt I was in professional and efficiently good hands.
Very good physician & caring staff.
Dr Love has phoned me to ask if I have more questions or concerns.
I will certainly recommend my provider to my family and friends. I know you will forever continue to give your patients courtesy and respect.
I am grateful I was referred to Dr. Love.
Thank you!
Accelerated technical skills as well as personal interactions
Good Job
Keep up the good work ?.
Dr Love has shown me she is exceptional in her field
Thank you Dr Love for your excellent bedside manner and dedication to your patients.
I'm fortunate to have her!!
She listened to everything you and to say
The audiologist was excellent and very patient. The registration staff were very friendly and efficient
less rushed for time than at last visit
Very satisfied
Great surgeon!
I told dr Love that I had experienced vertigo twice in the past two weeks. Her response was “ sorry to hear that”. No questions or any discussions. She was in a hurry to get out of there. One of the more unfriendly docs I have met in 68 years of life.
I was not an easy patient and the procedure was not comfortable but she was kind and very helpful
Dr Love is amazing
Dr. Love asked me if I had any questions about post care and I couldn't think of any but afterward I wished that she gave me something in writing to remember. I don't know how long to keep the vaseline and cotton ball in my ear. It's been a week now and I heard this morning from someone who told me that the growth in my ear is benign. Good news but should I keep applying vaseline and cotton ball to it? I forgot to ask her.
None
Very pleased with Lily Love & her staff!
I already gave it in previous box.
Thank you for your caring attitude.
It seems that the clinic is very busy now. It is difficult to get an appt. in an expeditious manner.
Good feeling left after visit with doctor Love
Thank you Dr. Love!
Talk to receptionist about being kind to everyone.
Doctor lili Lové was great
Excellent doctor.
Dr Love is top notch on every level
The only negative was the long wait before seeing anyone between visits.
Scheduling was a nightmare.
Improve scheduling to reduce wait times
I sincerely believe anyone seeing Dr.Love is in excellent hands.
Dr. Love is a very caring and very competent ENT specialist.
Dr. Love is Great! But the nurse that answered when I called was not friendly. So I have mixed emotions on answering this survey
Dr. Love was amazing. She spent time with me and she really listened.
A simple procedure done very well.
While the provider paid attention to all issue the visit seemed kind of rushed.
Thank you
All went smoothly and being an NP myself I felt the entire staff were very professional.
I appreciate Dr. Loves skill in treating patients and feel I have found a Dr. that I’d like to continue with for any future needs. Thank you.
I am grateful
No nonsense but also listened!
The entire staff I came across with were professional and very welcoming. I sincerely appreciate you all!
Very professional.
Thank you!
Very good doctor
Dr. Love was very professional and friendly. A combination that can be difficult to find sometimes.
Provider was incredibly compassionate and engaged.
Great experience
No comment
I appreciated being able to see and record the results of my pharyngeal scope.
She will probably be doing my surgery in April or May.
Maybe just talk a little bit slower. Not much but just a little.
Great care
Pleasurable experience.
I was very relieved after my visit. Thank you for addressing my concerns and providing me with the information I needed. I appreciated your help!
I will recommend Dr. L Love to family and friends.
Thank you!!!
She was at the point
good work
Great Doctor.
It was nice to have the doctor listen to me & answer my questions instead of being in a hurry and running out before I could ask questions. It was very refreshing.
I appreciated Dr. Love professionalism and knowledge and will ask for her if needed in the future.
Thank you so much
Thank you very much!
Dr was nice professional and thorough.
regarding courtesy and respect - it was very good for all but one telephone receptionist that I called for directions to the hospital who hung up on me and said we posted information on the portal for you.
Very satisfied
Dr Love does not speak sticky from the text; she gives after-care advice in a conversational way. She knows cares if the other person understood and how they understood what she said. She’s personable.
Lilly Love is wonderful! Such a great doctor and a wonderful person.
Your phone system sucks.
Excellent job.
very busy office great staff !
Answers provided are for Dr. Love Only not front desk staff.
The doctor stated I needed a minor surgery and the admin staff told me I would be contacted to schedule. Its been over 20 days and I've never received a phone call to set up the procedure. I've called and left messages with no return calls.
Overall it was a pleasant experience the end result was even better bud put in a synopsis of how you should feel what you should expect I think it’s very important. Dr. love has done a lot of these surgeries and if she couldn’t calculate the most common symptoms after the surgery would be beneficial to the customer
