Suffering from OSA, I was referred to Dr. Lenkowski by my OSA dentist having sinus problems I had grown to accept as normal. My diagnosis was quick and easy with the images provided by my OSA dentist and with 1 visit we were scheduling surgery and follow up appointments. Delighted with my experience with the entire office and the outcome. I live 2 hours away and it was worth the extra travel to have care from such a skilled and competent physician. I will go back for all future ENT needs most certainly.

B.B.

I feel great, I wish I had done this years ago.

K.C.

This procedure has changed my life. For 6 years I have complained to my doctors that I felt fatigued. The day after my procedure I felt like my self again…and my cough was gone! I was tired all of the time and now that is gone. You changed my life!

I had forgotten what it’s like to breathe. The difference is unbelievable. It is so much easier to breathe. It’s been a blessing, I’ll tell you! The procedure was a breeze!

Best thing I have ever done. I should have done it years ago. Life changing!

I didn’t know that breathing through my nose could feel this good. I started walking again because I can finally breathe. It’s going to be a good holiday.

P.S.

I have to remind myself that I can breathe through my nose. I do not snore anymore. LIFE IS SO MUCH BETTER!

J.M.

Since my office sinus procedure …Great, I am great! I have my life back.

S.P.

Dr Lenkowski and his staff are all attentive and responsive. He did what he said and said what he did. He shared imagery of the inside of my sinuses with me. He explained my condition and treatment at my level of understanding. He helped me with my chronic sinus condition. He answered all my questions, no matter how outlandish. He restored my ability to breathe freely. Highly recommended.

M. F.

After my Latera procedure my snoring is gone. It is amazing how well I can breathe and smell.. MAJOR MAJOR difference!!!

M.V.

The balloon sinuplasty procedure was like a miracle…after I had that procedure done it was a different world.

S.D.

That office sinus procedure was the best thing I ever had!

J.A.

I am doing so well since that sinus surgery you did, I am not the same person I was 3 years ago…better, much better….It’s all because of you!

W.W.

That was the best surgery I have ever had!

L.C.

Since I was a little girl I have gotten sick every fall and every spring like clockwork. As I have gotten older, my symptoms had gotten worse; to the point that I was constantly battling sinus infections and I felt miserable and congested most of the time. Thankfully, I was referred to Dr. Paul Lenkowski at Roanoke Valley ENT & Allergy. He and his staff are great! He was able to diagnosis my condition and developed a game plan to address it. He surgically repaired my sinuses and septum, identified my allergens, and put me on preventative treatment. I am so glad I went to Dr. Lenkowski! Now, I feel fantastic! I honestly did not realize how bad I felt much of the time until my condition was corrected. I highly recommend Dr. Lenkowski and his staff. They work hard to make sure you breathe better.

Corie

I feel better than I have in a long time….I have not had a sinus infection in two years!

R.R.

I used to have a headache every day. I have not had a headache since my procedure. I am breathing better, no longer snoring and I feel great. I used to never feel good but now I feel great.

C.R.

The sinus procedure was the best thing I have ever done!

RM

I feel great, no I mean ecstatic. If you know someone who wants to buy a bunch of breathe right strips let me know, I don’t need them anymore.

KC

You’ve done what the other doctors couldn’t.  I can smell for the first time in 40 years.

JS

After my sinus procedure I have a new lease on life. I had no idea breathing could make me feel so incredible! I have been exercising now that I can breathe and lost 20 lbs. Thank you Dr. Lenkowski and keep up the great work!

SP

I wish I had done the procedure sooner. The results have been outstanding. I felt better the very next day. Thank you for my Christmas present. My Christmas will be better now that a I can breathe. Dr. Lenkowski and his team are outstanding!

JD

Thank you! I had the same procedure 40 years ago in the OR and I was scared to have it again! Dr. Lenkowski did a wonderful job in the office. I would recommend him to anyone, Fresh breathing and everything!

MDH

I’ve always had allergies ever since I was a little girl and was often sick year round as a result. My nose would constantly drip and under my eyes were often black due to allergies and being so congested. My dad suggested I see Dr. Lenkowski to address the severity of the allergies. Turns out there was a little more than allergies causing my sinus discomfort. Fast forward, I had sinus surgery to correct a deviated septum, nasal polyp removed, balloon sinuplasty, and the Clarifix procedure done. Having the sinus surgery has been the best decision I could have made for my overall health and wellbeing. I rarely have migraines, have been able to breathe through my nose which is something I’ve never been able to do, and my nose doesn’t constantly drip. My allergies are being addressed with immunotherapy. Everyone at the Roanoke Valley ENT and Allergy office has been so kind and caring. Dr. Lenkowski listens to my concerns, explains everything and makes sure that I feel comfortable. I am beyond satisfied.

R.P.

I feel great. I wish I had done this years ago! I didn’t know what breathing was supposed to feel like! I feel Amazing!

E.C.

It’s been amazing since my nasal surgery. I didn’t realize how bad it was until afterwards. I think this saved my marriage because I can sleep so much better. Thank you, Dr. Lenkowski.

A.K.

I had latera (in the office) and now I can finally breathe through my nose for the first time, this is amazing!

W.L.

In 2000 I became very ill. I went from specialist to specialist trying to get a diagnosis of what was happening to me. To make a miserable story shorter, my sinuses were so infected that the infection drained to my lungs and bronchi. I lost my sense of taste and smell, developed asymptomatic asthma, unending itching in my ears and on and on. Over the next five years I had 4 sinus surgeries. The surgeries removed bone and debris and I had nice black eyes and swelling after each. I still was unable to smell things like a spring rain on warm asphalt when the prednisone wore off.

Now enter Dr. Lenkowski who listened (and listened) and read my history. After addressing my illness, he offered me a new procedure, called Balloon Sinuplasty, which could be done in his office. I said something like “Can you do it today?” Well, we didn’t do it THAT day but shortly thereafter. IT WAS THE BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE!!! I am very grateful to have had the procedure and my quality of life is much better thanks to it. Yours will be too!

Brenda

I did not know what an ENT was. I wish my Doctor had sent me to you years ago. I feel so much better since my sinus procedure.

J.H.

I didn’t know breathing could be like this. The (latera) procedure was easy and I can notice a big difference!

B.B.

I had the in-office sinus procedure, and I loved it.  I would tell anyone to have this done.  I can breathe, I never could before.  This improved me 100%. THANK YOU!!!

S.B.

After my sinus procedure I have done really well.  I have never gone this long without a sinus infection.

D.S.

I suffered from sinus infection and sinus migraines for decades and since the procedure I’ve had NONE!! I didn’t realize how poor my breath was before the procedure. I used to come home from work and collapse from working all day with a headache and now I can come home and play with my daughter all night.

Timothy

I am hunter and it is nice to sit and enjoy the woods. This is the first year that I could breathe quietly through my nose. I should have done this a long time ago.  I am grateful for this.

SM

(After you received my nasal polyps in the office) I never been able to breathe better through my nose. I recommend you to all my friends. You are heads and shoulders above other practices that I have been to.

K.F.

I feel great after my balloon sinuplasty. I recommend this procedure to all of my friends.

Having this surgery has REALLY changed my life. I do not have to use a nasal solution after 60 years of using them daily. I finally can sleep all night after this surgery. I was always paranoid that I always had to have my nasal spray with me to breathe. This is the best surgery and I have had many surgeries in my life but by far this is the best and the easiest. I only had to stay home for a day. This has changed my life and to know I get to spend the rest of life, however long it is, being able to breathe and sleep.

I have had allergies all my life and struggled with sinus infections. In 2000 I had sinus surgery in the OR and the recovering was lengthy and didn’t help that much. From then on I still struggled with sinus infections, and prior to seeing Dr. Lenkowski I would have a sinus infection every 2-3 months. When I heard about the balloon procedure I asked my nurse friends and they all said hands down Dr. Lenkowski. I had the balloon procedure in the office and the recovery was easy and I have been infection free since. I highly recommend him and his staff.

Cindy

I feel and breathe so much better, I wish I had done this years ago!

C.S.

Exercise is so much easier after the latera procedure.  I can push much harder now.  Hopefully next you see me….you will see less of me!

P.G.

That was the best thing you have ever done for me (balloon sinuplasty). It has been 8 years and I have had no sinus problems.

A.E.

For year I have suffered from frequent sinus infections and chronic sinus headaches and severe congestion when I could lay down. After the Balloon Sinuplasty I can now breath, my headaches are gone and I am confident I will not have chronic sinus infections.

BK

“Great doctor! Great staff! Life changing care!”

Amanda

“Wonderful and professional doctor!!! Truly goes above and beyond for his patients.”

Jenn

“Absolutely wonderful Doctor and staff!”

Lauren

After two years of doctors visits with sinus infections, my family physician referred me to Dr. Lenkowski. After examining me and sending me for a cat scan, he thought I would benefit from sinus surgery. He explained it as an in-office procedure with little down time to recover. I am a teacher. Having the surgery on Friday and back to work on Monday sounded encouraging. Dr. Lenkowski explained it completely with detailed instructions and medications ahead of time.  The pain free procedure was performed on Friday afternoon. I was eating dinner and resting comfortably on Friday evening. As I recovered, I realized I could breathe easier and didn’t have the soreness around my eyes that sinus pressure brings. I have been free from sinus infections and headaches since then. Dr. Lenkowski and his staff are kind, caring, conscientious and professional. They are the best.

Brenda F.

“Doctor Lenkowski is a great doctor and very good with little ones. We had a great experience and highly recommended.”

Marlene

“I have not been to this office but they do not get any better than Dr. Lenkowski. He is an amazing Dr. He put tubes in our oldest daughters ears when she was about 18 months old and called on a Sat to check on her! He is a class act and he is nice and personable with a great bedside manner. I would trust him to operate on both my children.”

Ashley

“Dr. Lenkowski performed a balloon sinus procedure on me with excellent results. The left sinus was always stopped up before the procedure and now after he opened it up, I am breathing so much better. I felt no pain during the procedure. I recommend this practice to anyone having sinus problems.”

Daphne

“Dr. Lenkowski and his staff are awesome! I appreciated their compassion and support after my daughter’s tonsillectomy.”

Anne

I am very pleased with the results of my out-patient sinus surgery performed at your ENT office in early April. You and your staff are very professional and  I felt very comfortable during the entire process before and after surgery.

Prior to my surgery, I was constantly dealing with clogged sinuses and drainage issues.  But now after surgery, I am amazed at the improvement in my ability to breathe through my nose  (as detailed in the before and after pictures that I saw, my sinus openings were full of polyps and lumps before surgery and after surgery show clear sinus airways and the polyps and lumps are gone).   To summarize, it feels like I am breathing through two large stove pipes now and it is especially noticeable at night when I am going to sleep.  With this said, I will definitely recommend the sinus surgery to all my friends and family if they are having sinus issues. A big thanks to you and your staff.

Edward R.

“I am a nurse in the OR and have worked with Dr Lenkowski for years. He is a very talented surgeon. He is so wonderful to his patients and all of the staff.
Very thoughtful and kind to everyone. He is definitely the one I would go to or send my family/friends to for any ENT issues.”

Angel

“Dr. Lenkowski is a wonderful Doctor. He performed surgery on my son twice ( a week apart) met me at the ER and is just the BEST DOCTOR, best side manner, passionate, caring, physician I know.”

Jessica

“Dr. Lenkowski and his nurse are the best. I’ve been struggling with allergies and sinus infections for YEARS. I’ve seen countless professionals over the years, but nobody has better bedside manner and genuine compassion to make people feel better. ”

Chelsea

“Dr. Lenkowski has been so awesome with both me and my daughter (5). He has worked with us on our concerns, made sure we tried other options before resorting to surgery and just overall has been very attentive and kind. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an ENT for an adult or child.”

Julia

“I have been a patient of Dr. Lenkowski for 9 years. I started seeing him when he was at Jefferson Surgical. I followed him to Lewis Gale and I moved with him when he went into private practice at Roanoke Valley ENT & Allergy. He is great at what he does. He spends time with you to understand your problem and to come up with the best solution. With the great gap between our ages, I plan on him being my ENT the rest of my life. ”

Jerry

“Dr. Lenkowski was interested in the reason I was there to be checked, he thoroughly examined my ears, nose, throat and neck and ask questions. When I was ready to leave he told me to come back if I had any other problems. I would recommend Dr. Lenkowski to any of my family members or friends.”

“Dr. Lenkowski has seen my son for years, when he left Lewis Gale I decided to follow. Best decision I’ve ever made. The new office and staff make the atmosphere 100% better than his old office. My son even said he liked this office better and that the people were really nice. When a 5yr old says that you know it’s made an impact on them. Thank you all for your professionalism and your calm atmosphere!! Best doctor around the Roanoke Valley!!!!”

Rachel

“Dr. Lenkowski is an amazing doctor. His bed side manner is wonderful and he is great with children. My son had his tonsils/adenoids removed with Dr. Lenkowski and his quality of life has improved greatly. My son had the best care throughout the process! We could not have asked for a better Doctor!”

Elise

“I worked in the main Operating Room at Lewis Gale Medical Center with Dr. Lenkowski for several years and saw him in action. He is an amazingly skilled surgeon. That’s why I recommended him to my nephew for his little girl. Dr. Lenkowski was wonderful with her. She was 2 years old when he operated, and she wasn’t even scared of him. If you want a friendly, caring, and knowledgeable ENT, choose Dr. Lenkowski…you won’t regret it!!”

I appreciated his direct and straight forward approach, as well as his knowledge when he reviewed and explained my CT scan to me. He pays attention to detail and cares about his patients’ quality of life. I feel I am in very capable hands as I face surgery in the near future.”

“I have been seeing Dr. Lenkowski for almost 8 years. I have been very pleased with the care I have received from him.”

Debbie

Gerald
“The procedure I had in Dr. Lenkowski’s office was probably the best thing that I have ever done. This completely changed my life. I no longer have facial pressure. I can breathe morning, noon and night. Thank you Dr. Lenkowski!!!”
JJ
Dr. Lenkowski believed me when no one else did. My sinuses very clogged following an incident I suffered when I was younger that prevented me from being able to breathe/taste and even smell at all. I had been to multiple doctors, including a doctor at UVA who basically told me there was nothing that could be done for me. Then I met Dr. Lenkowski in August. He quickly took me seriously and set forth action plans into getting me the help I needed. He is very knowledgeable about his field and always very kind and helpful in explaining all the details of your problems to you. He did my sinus surgery in October and now I can finally taste/breathe/ and smell like a normal person and I am immensely grateful for him and all that he and his team did to help me. It truly has changed my life. Seriously can’t recommend him and his team enough.
