Getting a timely appointment with GIlberto Alemar, MD was difficult. I had to wait about 6 months to see him. Since I have chronic sinus issues, this was difficult, but, when I finally did see him, it was worth it. He is clearly an expert, charming besides, and seems to be headed in the right direction in terms of evaluation.

Dr. Alemar is clearly an expert in his field. I have a complicated sinus situation linked to hearing loss in my right ear, which is problematic, and he is taking steps to get to the bottom of it and try to resolve the issues. For the time being, he recommended a CT scan to get a better picture of what is happening.

Nurses on duty were not normally assigned to doctor and needed help to find supplies etc. Understandable and not an issue from a service standpoint. Doctor was patient and communicated with nurses what was needed. All were diligent and trying to provide best service.

Dr Alemar is a fantastic professional The diagnosis and the procedures he carried out ( April and August have considerably improved my quality of life. The only issues I have are related too the negative responses of his support team after my first procedure. I had pain/discomfort and considerable discharges. I was given advice by his team that this was normal for up to 2 months I asked to speak with Dr Alemar and instead received phone calls from his team. I received antibiotics from my local GP who diagnosed a secondary Infection Because of the discomfort I postponed the second procedure myself until I felt the first one had fully healedThis second procedure was painless ( as I now assume is normal) and Dr Alemar provided an excellent solution to my problem. He is a delightful man, as well!!!

Dr Alemar was able to accommodate a visit at CC Coral Springs - closer to my home. Within five minutes of arrival at CC, I was being courteously greeted and interviewed by the Dr's Assistant. Dr Alemar inquired as to the reason for my visit, asked about other related medical activity, and described the process he would use to arrive at a meaningful diagnosis. The local anesthesia and endoscopy that followed was administered professionally, with interactive explanation and minimum discomfort. Dr Alemar completed the visit by sharing preliminary findings, explaining subsequent tests ordered. All in all, one of my most productive and time efficient medical visit at Cleveland.
