Extremely disappointed in this office. If Dr Thedinger had looked at my referral papers prior to my appointment a phone call could have been made to cancel my appointment. My fiance and I both took off work, drove 543 round trip, spent almost 13 hours in our vehicle, and had to hire a babysitter. It was a complete waste of time and money just to have him look in both my ears and hold a tuning fork to one, then proceed to tell me that I would not need surgery yet based on the hearing tests THAT WERE PART OF THE REFERAL PAPERS SENT FROM MY REFERING DR! There was so much lack of communication, disregard to myself and the situation I was put in. I was even told "well we have patients from all over even South Dakota that come here," when I was trying to explain my frustration at having to drive so far when a simple phone call would have sufficed
Dr Thedinger saved my hearing! When I described my Sudden hearing loss symptoms they got me in the office ASAP to get treatment started in a timely manner which saved my hearing!
Today was my first day meeting Dr. T and his staff in person. My mother and I came all the way from Sidney NE. We met him this morning and he did my surgery a few hours later. Hands down I would recommend anyone and everyone to see this Dr.for any ent issues. I had before this seen the same dr for 32 years so finding and trusting someone new was a big deal. He is completely worth the 6+ hour drive for me. Thanks again Dr. T and your incredible staff. Especially your nurse.
I don’t know where to begin!! I have been a patient of Dr. Thedinger for 22 years!! He is absolutely the best. He is caring and compassionate. All of his staff are friendly and very helpful! Mary Jo, his nurse, has been with him for as long as I’ve been seeing him !! That says it all!!!
I like the receptionist , shes very nice but Im so sorry to say this, Dr. Thedinger never takes his time to ask my symptoms or any questions, he will come in sits diagnoses me and never asks me my symptoms and gave me a prescription so I can take medication for migraine, took like 3 minutes and he was done. Im so disappointed because 3 times visiting and he does the same thing, he does not care. And I have to drive 2 hours to go see him and miss work , for only 3 minutes appointment I dont think is fair . I wont be going there anymore and I don't recommend Dr Thedinger, his worthless.
I recently visited Dr. Thedinger's office to have him remove tubes from both of my ear canals. He was in the room for literally a minute, tried to take one of the tubes out and I flinched a little, normal reaction I would guess, he said you can't move, and tried again and I flinched again, he threw his hands up and turned around and said, you know what, NO, we aren't doing this, NO, just forget it! I begged him to please help me because I can't hear with the tubes stuck in my canal and he said NOPE, go to the pharmacy and get this stuff and come back and see me next week. He upset me so bad, tears were streaming down my face. He has the WORST bedside manner and I will never go back to him again. *All of his nurses were super gals, asking questions about my condition and gave me hope that we could figure out why I was feeling the way I was and he flipped out like a child. I can't afford to keep taking off of work, paying a co-pay every time I go in and not get the professional care that I deserve and expect. I hope he doesn't treat his nurses with the same disrespect as he does his patients.
Upon recommendation from an ER doctor, my husband followed up with Dr. Thedinger for an inner ear issue that was causing him vertigo. Dr. Thedinger & his staff were dismissive of my husband’s symptoms as well as the diagnosis from the ER physician. They seemed to focus on refuting a previous diagnosis and not on determining what was actually going on. The tech argued with my husband on his symptoms, including his service-related hearing loss. We are incredibly frustrated to not get more answers & now to have to follow up with someone else. We do not recommend Dr. Thedinger or his practice.
Poor listener and bedside manner! I have longstanding Meniere's that became very active. Dr Thedinger never ordered balance testing to help determine the cause for my increased vertigo and balance issues. He had his mind made up it was vestibular neuritis from previous ENT notes that did not diagnose VN. Never in my life have I experienced such unprofessional and uncaring medical treatment! At the third visit he threw up his hands saying he can't help me as he walked out of the room! I then went to NE Med Center who did the appropriate testing to determine the actual issue, which was Meniere's and helped me tremendously.
Dr. Thedinger is by far the best ENT doctor I have ever seen. I have had ear problems all my life. At least 15 years ago he diagnosed my ear problem that I had been fighting all my 40 years of life. No other doctor that I visited could do that. Just recently he diagnosed another ear problem that I had, other doctors just could not figure out. Mind you I saw good doctors, but Dr. Thedinger is one of the best ENT doctors in the nation and he and his staff care about their patients. I hope you read this Doctor and THANKS for saving my hearing and improving my quality of life!
Britt Thedinger is the Best ENT around. I have had Meniere's for 7 years. He always listens and explains everything. The office staff are the best.
