Adison had karen zur before we had to switch because of insurance reason. She is very nice but very conservative. Wich i didn't relize until one of her colleges said something.
Dr. jacobs is also one of the ents there who is also very nice. I have no experiance with the ltr, but i think she studied under Dr. cotton.

We go to CHOP, Nick did not have to have a LTP but he was trached and decannulated by Dr. Wetmore (deals with cardiac kids) and seen by Dr. Jacobs many times, they are great! Â*I know Dr. Zur is part of the airway clinic, I have heard very good things about her and her bedside manor.
