I’ve debated posting this review for a while because I can’t tell what is the fault of Alessi’s office and what is the fault of my insurer. But I had a very mixed-to-bad experience with my surgical experience with Alessi. I came in and he immediately stuck a camera up my nose with no warning and diagnosed me with nasal polyps and deviated septum. I went in for surgery and paid a large lump sum straight to the surgical centre, expecting that would be it plus perhaps some extras for anaesthesiologist. The surgery went fine, I did get an infection after but recovered fairly quickly. What ended up frustrating me was the slew of random charges I got for months after the surgery. I kept thinking it would stop but every couple months I’d get a new “adjusted” cost and pay another $100-$400. I kept contacting the office for clarity on the charges but received no response. I was afraid of the bills going to collections so I just paid them, but I just received notice from a friend that also went to Alessi that he’s being treated with the same shady practices so it felt important that I leave a review and alert others that this is a possibility if you are visiting Alessi’s office. So all in all: surgery was successful and I am breathing better, but the surprise fees make me unable to leave a good review.

Doctor Alessi is a wonderful doctor. He did my neck surgery and got me on the latest CPAP machine for my sleep apnea. I sleep much much better now and have lots of energy. The best ENT doctor ever.

Something must have changed recently because I experienced some of the worst post postoperative care I could imagine. Their office is unresponsive even on their post op emergency line. I got infection complications from their assembly line style surgery room and apparently the procedure failed and will need to be repeated. Dr. Alessi is one of the most financially motivated physicians I’ve ever met - it’s palpable - and kinda gross. He will talk forever about his sports car, vs treatment plan. He will grumble about billing your insurance, and try to get you to pay privately for some procedures. I have one of the best insurance plans you can buy. I’m still getting annoying letters from all of the randoms he’s contracted with in his surgery center. Buyer beware
