Dr. Hobson is excellent at what she does. Not only is she a skilled surgeon but her bedside manner is one full of compassion, care, and concern. I am blessed to have her on my team of care providers and am confident that I am in good hands with her by my side. I wouldn't want it any other way.

Dr. Hobson is very personable and is easy to talk to. She let me make the decision re whether I wanted to wait a few weeks in order to let the ear drain on its own or have her puncture the inside of the ear so as to relieve the the poor hearing sooner rather than later. I chose sooner, and it was the right decision for me.

Dr. Hobson removed wax from my ears and told me how to schedule an audiology appointment. She did not give me much information when I asked why, if there was minimal wax buildup, I hear a swooshing noise when I chew.

Dr Hobson was only 1 of 2 surgeons for this surgery, which seemed like they lead a large team that supported me. I received amazing care, and continue to while I'm in the post-op/recovery phase.

Both the 4th year medical student and Dr. Hobson were outstanding. They listened to my latest Meniere's updates and gave me excellent care. I drive from Acworth for my Meniere's because of the quality of care I receive from Dr. Hobson and her team.

I am delighted to be able to write an extremely positive note.When I went the first time, I was disappointed by her bedside manner.I was hoping it was only having a bad day.This time she showed care and explained my problems, in detail, and not as before.This is important, as being a physician, I see the quality of care declining, so am really impressed that SOME CARETAKERS, still treat patients with care and understanding.

The most caring doctor I ever had
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/9/2024
Dr. Patel was nice and professional, but I found Dr. Hobson to be rather dismissive of my symptoms and ascribed some to be idiopathic. She was rather snide when I related my experiences with flying and subsequent vertigo episodes. "Were you wheeled of the plain in a wheelchair?" In other words, the pressure associated with flying were not responsible for my vertigo. I think when a patient suffers headaches, earaches, vertigo, balance issues, tinnitus, eye pain, and hearing loss all within a month, they are likely related.
