"Dr. Shargorodsky is outstanding! He explains everything clearly, my initial surgery was relatively painless, and during my post-op treatment, he used instruments with precision and I felt no pain. Coastal Ear Nose and Throat and Coastal Surgeryare very professional and trustworthy!"
"We followed your rules to arrive 15 minutes before our appt., then were made to WAIT for 45 minutes in the waiting room; AND my husband is handicapped, so, what gives?!"
"I am a new patient of Dr. Shargorodsky! The office staff was so nice upon check in and his medical assistants Alex and Adrianna were so warm and friendly.

"Dr. Joe is The BEST! A Johns Hopkins trained Sinus God, he has a wonderful bed side manner, he is empathetic and explains things thoroughly. SO happy that he's here in NJ! 🥇"
"I am deeply grateful to Dr. Shargorodsky and the entire staff for their exceptional professionalism and wonderful attitude toward patients. The doctor conducted a consultation, outlined a treatment plan, and performed a diagnostic examination that was completely painless. He showed me everything and explained it all in detail. Since I did not have insurance, they immediately calculated the cost of the surgery for me and scheduled my appointment. Today, I had to cancel the procedure because I am currently in the process of obtaining insurance; however, I intend to return to the clinic a little later, as I still need to have a cyst removed. I place my absolute trust in Dr. Shargorodsky and his entire team. The office is very clean, and the people working there are incredibly attentive. Thank you!"
"Fantastic experience with this ENT. I had an ongoing issue with hoarseness, and they correctly identified a polyp. Instead of jumping straight to surgery, Dr Shargorodsky suggested a 48-hour vocal rest. The plan worked beautifully, and my throat feels so much better. Professional, knowledgeable, and highly skilled"
"Thank you VERY MUCH Dr. Joe for the amazing, professional, kind service you provide to your customers. So many people can literally breathe because of you! Much appreciated!"

"I met with Dr. Shargorodsky for the first time. I had a great experience. He was very patient and knowledgeable. He took the time to listen and explain everything to me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Shargorodsky to anyone with sinus issues."
"The centralized scheduling center needs work. One can't get through to the actual office to speak to receptionist. Leave a message and the return call comes through with noone on the other end. The office itself is decent. Dr. Shargorodsky is FANTASTIC. Because of him I let the rest slide.."
"I had a very good experience. First I had my hearing checked. Then I had appointment withDr Shargorodsky. He is very personable and easy to talk with and answered all my questions."

In addition to his wealth of clinical knowledge, Dr. Joe’s beside manner was so genuine and so warm, and he really took the time to listen to all of my concerns, as did every member of his team. Patient-centered medicine is so often a lost art in this country and Dr. Joe and his team truly bring humanity back to the medical profession. THANK YOU ALL."
"I’ve been seeing Dr.Shargorodsky for more than 10 years. I had major sinus issues for a long time prior to being his patient. He initially suggested a nasal drain to start to help with my sinuses along with some OTC meds. In the past decade I’ve had minimal sinus issues.Additionally, every doctor I have seen in this practice has been equally competent and professional, healing any issue I presented."
"I’ve had chronic sinus congestion for some time now. In recent years, it had been getting worse and about three years ago I decided to seek medical intervention. I could function during the day but could barely pass air through my nose at night. 4-5 hours of sleep was about all I could muster and that was taking its toll.I found a large ENT practice with an office in Shrewsbury and started there. More than two years and multiple visits later, including a $10k turbinate reduction surgery at Monmouth Medical, zero relief. It was as if I had never set foot in their office. I was angry that so much time and my insurance company’s money was wasted on ineffective treatments.I stumbled on Coastal ENT and started over with Dr Shargorodsky. He got right to the point with a CT scan to find out WHY I could breathe through my nose. Imagine that. The practice in Shrewsbury never even suggested such an investigatory step.I had septoplasty surgery a few weeks ago and while I’m still healing, I’m already experiencing dramatic improvements. I can breathe so much easier now and I’m actually getting eight hours of sleep every night! Anyone who has experienced chronic sleep deprivation can tell you that’s huge.My positive experience doesn’t stop with Dr Shargorodsky. Every member of the Coastal ENT staff was excellent, from the front desk people to the surgical coordinator, to the surgical team, they all impressed me as competent and professional every step of the way. That’s rare in my experience.If you have the need for an ENT provider, I strongly recommend Coastal ENT. My only regret is not finding them sooner."
"Dr Shargorodsky is amazing!! Very thorough, listens to your concerns and makes you feel comfortable. My son has been seeing him for years!! Staff is amazing too"
"I suffered for 25 years with nasal congestion for years, and my life was miserable since I could not sleepI went to number of ENT Dr, with zero luck. That’s until I meet with Dr Shargorodsky. He immediately sent me for a ct scan and found something suspicious in my nasal passages and he prescribed me some antibiotics and within two weeks it completely cleared me.I have my life back and I only have Dr Shargorodsky to thankA big heart felt thank you Dr for letting me breathe again"
"By far the most efficient run office I have ever dealt with. Dr Shargorodsky was knowledgeable and caring. The tech who did the hearing test was also exceptional. Thanks for all your hard work!"
"I had a really smooth 6 month journey! Every in office appointment Dr. and his staff were very polite and explanatory. He knew my condition from the very first appointment (with confirmation from a CAT scan). Surgery was a complete success. I've never felt better.Thank You Dr. Joe!"
"Great nurses and Dr. Joe is amazing. He definitely goes above and beyond to explain everything in detail and so you can understand the situation. Dr. Silberman was amazing as well when I saw him at the Manahawkin location."

Additionally, the entire staff at Coastal ENT was very professional and friendly."
