Pankaj Gupta, MD, FACS - Wake Ear, Nose and Throat Specialists

After a referral for a minor issue, Dr. Gupta has completely changed my life-no exaggeration. Like all of my doctor visits before, he asked "Wow, you are only 26 and have severe sleep apnea?" Unlike every other doctor visit though, he quickly realized there were MAJOR problems. A severely deviated septum/uvula twice as long as it should be, both severely blocking airflow. During the scheduled surgery Dr. Gupta's expertise did not stop. Instead of just going in on autopilot to do a surgery I'm sure he has done hundreds of times before, he took time to diagnose an additional major issue. The only way my airway was getting adequate airflow was to be propped open. After surgery, I was referred me to UNC Dental School for maxillofacial surgery. 2 years after my first visit with Dr. Gupta-no more CPAP, no more napping, no more exhaustion, no more trying to simply get through the day to get to bed. I have more energy, sleep great, and enjoy life. Dr. Gupta changed my life, thank you!

I travel frequently for work and have seen several ENT's along the East Coast---Dr. Gupta outshines all others and has always stayed abreast of technology and advances in medicine, I have had three surgeries total with him, he is an exceptional surgeon and health care provider. and has taken excellent care of me over the years.

I had reoccurring sinus infections for several months, my primary care physician prescribed me antibiotics and steroids with no luck of curing my problem, she referred me to an ENT. Dr.Gupta also tried a stronger antibiotic and steroids to take, I felt better but I got another sinus infection that next week. Dr.Gupta told me about a procedure called Balloon Sinoplasty -- desperate for relief, I went through with the procedure. He was able to help my sinuses drain like they should have been, it was amazing to breathe again. I felt like myself again after two weeks. It's been 3 months since I had the procedure, and even though I have allergies, my nose has not been stuffed up nor have I even been sick. He is great and knows what he is doing. I highly recommend Dr.Gupta!
