PLEASE get a second opinion before letting this guy do surgery on you. I went in for a hearing problem and was told I needed sinus surgery. Dr. Tamez got rude and raised his voice at my wife when she asked him why? When I went in for the CAT scan we had agreed to Dr. Tamez scheduled other tests that morning ($675) before talking to me. I called his office to let them know I couldn't afford the other test and didn't have them done. I was told someone would call me back. After two days nobody called back so I called them again. They put me on hold and then came back and asked if I was going to have the surgery. I told them I wanted to talk to the doctor first before making that decision. She told me the nurse or doctor would call me back. It's been three weeks and I never heard back from them.
