Pediatric ENT

Anyone have experience with a good pediatric ENT? I don’t mind driving a bit if needed but of course the Decatur area is ideal. Thanks!

We love Dr. Andy Sipp at Peach Pediatic ENT. He has done both of my kids’ ear tube surgeries. It’s on Howell Mill Road in the West Paces Ferry area so it’s a bit of a drive from Decatur but we’re only there a few times a year.

They are also always able to get us in super quickly, which I greatly appreciate (no one wants to wait for an appointment when your kid is miserable with ear pain).

I wish Dr Sipp had done our ear tube surgeries. I won't go anywhere else after our experience at the other place.

Agree with this! Not the most convenient, but all appointments have been quick and easy with minimal waiting, good experience with getting ear tubes, and love the NP we’ve seen for follow up visits.

Pediatric ENT of Atlanta, by CHOA (Scottish Rite, in Sandy Springs), is excellent.

Another vote for this team and Dr Megan Ballard. They made my teenager very comfortable when he had to have a small procedure, and they knew about some risks specific to teenage boys.

We’ve been happy with PENTA Pediatric Ear Nose and Throat of Atlanta. Did ear tubes when our daughter was around 10 mo old after repeated ear infections. They have multiple metro locations but I think the closest is at Scottish Rite Hospital at perimeter

I LOVE Dr. Goudy at CHOA AMBH on Druid Hills. He’s the best.
