He is a rude,God complexed, mean non-empathetic smart-aleck! He made a serious misdiagnosed find that almost cost me my life! if that wasn't enough he loudly called me a liar in the hall at his nurses station for all to hear! His nurses are all apparently scared of him,,,and I see why!! I have never been this upset or hurt by any other professional, ever!! His actions toward me two days after my wife un-exspectedly passed away were savage!!! I have a good friend that told me the same attitude was displayed to him and he had dropped him just like I did!! He doesn't deserve even one star!!

I am not pleased with Dr. Alidina as he did not seem to be very interested in answering my questions and he provided me with only vague answers -- at times, I felt that he believed that I was wasting his time. I also do not believe that he provided me a good treatment plan, as my condition did not improve with his involvement. I have since gone to a different ENT, and the difference is night and day.

They barely had any magazines to choose from, and the ones that were available weren't very interesting. They told me a little bit about my treatments' risks and benefits, but I still didn't feel like I knew as much as I wanted to know. They were not able to diagnose my condition quickly. In fact it is still undiagnosed and am searching for answers.

Over the past 12 1/2 years Dr Alidina has performed surgery on five of my six children. The 5th child has had 4 sets of tubes placed over the last 3 1/2 years and is need of his 5th set. Dr Alidina has dismissed my children from his practice for a lack of paying a $90 bill less than 90 days out due to financial hardship. His office is difficult to deal with in matters pertaining to financial help or anything else. They have refused to return phone calls to resolve this matter, although they promise they will call back. They are neglectful to my patient rights as per Medical Quality Assurance. My 5th child has been on 4 different antibiotics for over 30 days and is having difficulty hearing in his left ear. Dr Alidina does not care as he has written him off from his practice and has refused medical treatment that is needed for my child.
It is sad as I used to think he was a wonderful and respectful Surgeon and I have sent many patients his way, and after this lenght of time, this is how he treats some of his most loyal patients. I'm just sorry it has taken me this long to see the true side of this once respectful surgeon. Some Doctors become doctors because they want to heal and help others even if they don't or can't get paid right away, and then there are some who strictly are out for the money and prestige that go along with the title of Surgeon and don't look at the individual status of each person, but the depths of their wallets!!
