Default Pediatric ENT

Hi All -
Does anybody have experience with either Dr. Robert Bahadori or Dr. George Zalzal? They are both pediatric otolaryngologists (ENTs).

My 10 month old son has had recurring ear infections and these are the two specialists recommended by the pediatrician's office, so I'm just trying to decide which one to call. Dr. Bahadori is in Reston and very convenient to where we live, but at least one person I know has had a good experience with Dr. Zalzal.

Just looking for feedback, good or bad.

Thanks!

I believe that Dr. Zalzal used to be associated with Children's Hospital? I think we actually used him many years ago.

When my son had ear issues, our pediatricians always referred us out to Children's Hospital in Fairfax. My son was 10 months old when he "got the tubes" and it was at Children's. It has been 16 years so my memory is dim; however, I recognize Zalzal's name and he must have been the lead ENT at the time. We saw a more junior doctor and couldn't have been more please with him.

Yes, Dr. Zalzal is affiliated with the children's hospital but also has a clinic in Fairfax. I suspect that tubes might be in our future...

Thanks for the feedback.

I can say that Children's did a wonderful job. And the tubes were a lifesaver for my son.

Myself and a ton of my friends went to Dr Bahadori and we all were very happy w/ his care. At the time we did this, all procedures were done in the Fairfax surgical center.

Great - thank you for the feedback. I had not heard any first-hand reports about Dr. Bahadori, so this is good to know. I know he has an office in Reston, but I do believe he may work out of other facilities as well. I'm glad you all had positive experiences.

Our ped, who I trust, highly recommended Dr. Bahadori. While we only had one visit with him, I found it him to be very professional and had great bedside manners.
