I was a recent patient of Dr Busch and utilized his services as his office is close to my home. I booked an appointment with his office solely due to the proximity and did not consult with my primary physician. I was extremely disappointed with his services as after four appointments, he could not eradicate the fungus that was in my left ear. I spent well over $150.00 in copayments for ear medicines that did not work.
He then told me to try two other medicines with copayments in excess of $200.00 and to hurry as the fungus would get worse and destroy my ear drum and I would permanently lose my hearing in that ear. I consulted my primary physician who prescribed Neomycin-Polymyxin. Dr. Busch chastised me for using this medicine and said only his medicine would work.
I followed my primary's instruction who referrered me to another ENT, a Dr. McGrath for a second opinion. He agreed with my primary that Neomycin would cure the fungus problem and was bewildered why Busch prescribed two medicines that would be ineffective. The Neomycin worked and cleared out the fungus. I have no idea why Dr. Busch insisted that I use two very costly medicines. I have since terminated my relationship with him as I lost faith in his treatment.

I took my son to Dr. Busch for a procedure. Upon checkout I was told my Co-Pay was $205.00. I said thats high with my Insurance coverage but I paid. Received my EOB and they over charged me by $180. I called and inquired and was told I would have my refund by July 5th. Still nothing in mail. I have called 8 times now only to leave a voicemail with no return calls. Sent an email last week, with no response as I was told "the Dr reads his emails". Worst Dr and Billing dept in all my life. Looking for my next course of action

I went to see Dr Busch as a first time patient after years of ear problems and hearing loss. I waited almost an hour before seeing him. I was ushered into a freezing cold room and waited some more. Dr let me tell him what I was experiencing for about 2 min before he began looking in my ears, nose and at my teeth. He told me very quickly that he saw nothing wrong and dismissed all of my concerns.
He then had me wait again, for a hearing test. The equipment was dated and the woman administering the test confirmed that. She let me know the ear I was having issues with was scoring a little lower, but that all the tests we fine. She sent me into another room, to wait, again. Dr came in, told me there is nothing wrong ( keep in mind my PCP writes RX at least every 3 months for ear infections and saw damage at my well visit ). Anyway, he offered me NOTHING, not advice, no folllow up, just basically made me feel as if all my complaints were made up.
On my way out, the woman at the front handed me a flyer for WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY! What a waste of my time, this visit let me way past disappointed. Maybe he is good for plastic surgery ( his face would lend to the idea he has had quite of bit of work ). I would NOT recommend him as an ENT.

If there was a way to give minuses I'd give 5 of them. Per my husband: Mark Nedela as of 5th of October 2017. I'm writing this because my husband doesn't know how to work/use his cell. As he went in a patient was walking out stating "this is ridiculous". CLUE #1. He then waited 15/20 mins. After he ckd his ears out, he suctioned the wax out. However, he still couldn't hear, so he said to him "I believe there's fluid behind my ear and can he poke it, he said no, because "he didn't want to leave scar tissue behind".
My husband still couldn't hear. Clue#2. He left. He then went to his OTHER doc. (Not in plan) His ENT dr was actually from Advanced ENT-@PENN MED. NOW, he "poked" it! (Lol). NOW HE CAN HEAR! Does ANYONE understand how much that means! Obviously, this doc has no freakin CLUE. IF HE JUST WANTED TO BE A PLASTIC SURGEON THEN HE SHOULDN'T HAVE PUT UP THAT' HE'S AN ENT!3RD clue

I had my ear wax removed in April 2017 with Dr. Busch as I have many times. Dr. Busch did/does a thorough, great job. I waited about 15 minutes to see him, which is standard. His office is very convenient, and his staff is attentive and efficient. My elderly mother (90's) also goes to Dr. Busch, and he is always respectful, efficient and effective in his treatments.

I was sent here from my physician because I needed a specialist but he told me nothing new and I left with information I had already known. Absolutely no help and did nothing for me. I literally was in the room with him for not even five minutes, you can tell he wanted you in and out. I left wasting most of my time waiting to get called in and paying a lot for a service that was terrible! Never had an experience like this at a doctor's office.

I recently went to see Dr. Scott Busch for a terrible noise I had on my left ear. This was preventing me from sleeping for weeks and was becoming very disruptive to my life. After waiting for almost one hour, I saw Dr. Busch for a few minutes, then sent back to the waiting room and later taken to get a hearing test. After another 15 minutes wait, I got to see again, for just a few minutes, Dr. Busch who diagnosed me with Tinnitus.
When I asked for more information on the illness, treatments and additional tests, he basically told me to just read the information the receptionist would give me when I check out. I was very disappointed by his impersonal approach and the lack of interest in providing more insights into the illness and how I could get relief. I felt rushed out of his office. I will definitely not go back or recommend him.
