3 Best ENT Doctors in Berkeley, CA

Dr Christina Corey is an outstanding ENT. She is clear in her guidance and also listens intently to her patients, remembering and honoring them as people rather than conditions. She possesses a rare combination of being an expert, gifted in her field, with a desire to truly listen to her patients, noting who they are and what they are experiencing. She will work with me or adjust protocols to match my concerns and level of compliance. As a health enthusiast (trained as functional health coach), I have some concerns around taking medications that I do not absolutely need. Dr Corey has always listened to me and supported my decisions, offering a counterpoint or testing my progress more frequently to ensure my condition is stable or improving through lifestyle changes. When I've come in with information she is unfamiliar with, she is willing to listen or read anything I send to her. She has referred me to wonderful adjacent providers and never judged me for my strong opinions. In reference to the less favorable reviews about bedside manner, I would like to say that Dr Corey may not be touchy-feely, but is very personable once you start to see her. She doesn't waste time and gets straight to the point, which could be perceived as cold, but is so valuable in getting the most out of a short appointment. I have found her to have a good sense of humor and a genuine concern for her patients.

I've seen Dr. Corey a handful of times and I really appreciate her professionalism and straightforward approach. I have had way too many doctors talk down to me and not listen, but Dr. Corey takes the time to listen to me and addresses my concerns.

Happy with the visit. Dr Corey listened and she was practical with the next steps. There was free clinic parking. The staff and my appointment was efficient.

My left ear was oozing fluid and blood, and lost hearing. Dr Li helped me not to worry. Ear drops killed an infection and shrank the polyp. He removed a tiny object visible during a second visit, apparently from a plant, and explained why that likely caused the infection. My hearing has returned. I know now to protect my ears too when I whack weeds. He is attentive, engaging and articulate.

I was hit by a truck in my wheelchair and ejected unconscious, face down into the street. By the time I got around to my nose i had already spent months (not)sleeping in a sitting position. Dr, Li was fantastic, His office did a great job and the operation was fantastic. As I sit here, I can breathe, and my nose looks great too.

Kind and very knowledgeable, Dr Li diagnosed and helped me deal with a chronic ear condition.
