Short Wait Time

I had made an appointment a few hours before arriving. I arrived 20 mins before my scheduled appointment time. I waited close to an hour before briny put in a treatment room. A gentleman who was checking in right before I did who didn’t have an appointment was called back to a treatment room before me even though I had an appointment. I understand being busy and waiting past my appointment time, what I don’t agree with is that having an appointment doesn��’t make any difference over a walk-in. The care I got from the provider was great once I was seen..an hour after my appointment time

My daughter had been fighting a sinus infection, and her Dr could not see her quickly, so we chose Children's Urgent Care. Scheduling online is always easy, but on arrival we were told the on site provider was an hour behind. I asked front desk staff if they could text us when they were ready to see us, and we would go eat at Taco Mama a few doors down. We were texted when they were ready, were put into a room, and proceeded to wait another 45 minutes. I looked out the door and found another lady looking for staff because she had been in a room for almost an hour waiting as well. We were told that my daughter still had 4 more patients in front of her before being seen, so the staff agreed to texting us again when closer to being ready as my daughter was getting hungry and her food had not been ready when we were called back. Another 30 minutes or so passed before we were contacted for her to be seen, and my decided to take her, and had to wait additional time in the room. No one can help they only had one provider, but I doubt everyone had an appointment like we did. I am disappointed in how long the wait was even with a scheduled visit. That being said, the front desk staff agreeing to text us when ready was absolutely wonderful and appreciated!

Went in with an ear ache and no voice. Nurse did swab for Covid, flu, and strep nurse practitioner came in and said I had Covid. I left there and did two other test with the same exact test used at the facility and the test were negative. They were ran by nurses as well. I went back to the facility to talk to them about it and the nurse was very defensive and would not give me another test even though I showed her the two negative tests that I just received. This is not good because I’m staying with a family member at a hospital and I was unable to go back due to the fact that I had a Covid diagnosis. I had to get another doctor to retest me so that I could go back. Test was negative so your facility let me walk out of there with a false positive and would not retest. I am not happy. Retested again today still negative.

Omg!!! Their fast and efficient as can be depending on the patients.. I went back quickly with severe lower back pain and was treated with a five star treatment even after I arrived home as they called the next morning just checking in on me and how I was. They followed up again several days later. WOW is all I can say. The treatment is way too awesome compared to any Dr Offc I’ve ever been in. Fairhope surg Care is a 5 Star for me!

Urgent Care by the Bay is absolutely the very BEST! First, the staff is always friendly and professional. Second, the lack of wait time is incredible, ie, I’ve always been seen quickly! Third, the ‘in-take’ nurse is efficient in obtaining info the physician will need to help. And forth and final praise goes to all the physicians I’ve seen: each one has an excellent bedside manner, listening and responding to my concerns, respecting my knowledge of my body, and providing me with the correct care-even noting any concerns they may have. My thanks to all at Urgent Care by the Bay in Daphne!

About Professional Ear Wax Removal

Dirt, bacteria, and other small particles that could irritate your ear canal and cause hearing loss are shielded by ear wax. On the other side, too much ear wax can obstruct your ear canal and cause hearing loss. Knowing how to safely and effectively remove ear wax can help you safeguard your hearing and ear health.

Why do we have ear wax?

Ear wax is a natural substance that protects your ears by trapping microscopic debris like dust and bacteria that might otherwise injure them. According to the National Library of Medicine, ear wax also protects the sensitive skin inside your ear canal from water-related irritation (NLM).

Ear Wax Removal FAQs

  • How much does an ear wax removal cost in Silverhill?

    Without insurance, an ear wax extraction in Silverhill can cost between $40 and $110. If your insurance covers ear wax removal, you will typically only be responsible for a $5 to $75 copay.

  • Is ear wax removal covered by my insurance?

    Ear wax extractions and consultations with ENT specialists are sometimes covered by insurance, especially if your problem is severe. Book a consultation and check your coverage in the Silverhill area today.

  • Who should get an ear wax removed?

    Individuals who are experiencing hearing loss, ear pain, leakage, or unusual coughs should book an appointment for an ear wax extraction.

  • Are video visits available with ENT specialists in Silverhill?

    While a thorough ENT examination cannot be performed over video, your doctor can evaluate you or your child for most concerns, such as loss of hearing, ear pain, leakage or other basic concerns using telemedicine. They can discuss a care plan, prescribe ear wax softeners, and recommend an in-person visit if deemed necessary, all while you are safe and comfortable at home in Silverhill.

  • Are video visits with ENT specialists covered by my insurance?

    Telemedicine ear wax removal consultation coverage will vary depending on your circumstances. Typically, if your insurance will not cover an in-person visit, it won’t cover similar appointments via telehealth. Since routine ENT consultations are usually covered by medical insurance, it is likely video visits with ENTs will be similarly covered.

  • If ear wax is removed, will my hearing improve?

    According to the National Library of Medicine, clearing the ear wax obstruction usually restores your hearing completely. Hearing loss is commonly caused by ear wax buildup and lasts until your ears are cleaned.

  • What will happen if I don’t clean my ears?

    You may develop an excessive amount of ear wax if you do not clean your ears on a regular basis. Pain or itching in the ear, ringing in the ear, and a feeling that the ear is full or clogged are all symptoms of too much ear wax, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). According to the National Institutes of Health, if you do not clean your ears, you may experience odor or discharge from the ear, as well as hearing loss.
