Dale Amanda Tylor, M.D.

I’ve seen Dr. Tylor about twice now and she has made me feel comfortable both times with her caring approach. I’ve had issues with my ears since a young age but only recently had been under her care. She is patient and doesn’t dismiss your problems and actually tells and explains things to you in a way that you can understand– using easy vocab and will work with you as you explain your problems by giving advice on how to go about solving that problem. I think since she has worked with kids she is flexible and can understand adults as well. Also I appreciate that she keeps her notes organized and that we get to keep any papers if we ask.

TL;DR If you suspect your baby has tongue-​tie, RUN, do not walk, to see Dr. Tylor!
Great experience (as much as these things can be). We brought in our 3 week old baby who had tongue-​tie and upper-​lip tie based on a referral from a lactation consultant. Dr. Tylor was patient, knowledgeable, professional and re-​assuring. She took the time (even running into her own lunch so that she had to dash across the street for a sandwich) to explain things to us. Believe me, as stressed out new parents with a baby who is not feeding well we had a LOT of questions and concerns.
She introduced the procedure to eliminate tongue-​tie and talked through all the aspects, and helped put us at ease — it’s not a fun procedure, but she made it as easy as could be expected. She also set up and was able to do the procedure in-​office — once all the prep and explanation was done, it only took 5 minutes, and then we were done.
Now, baby’s tongue-​tie and upper-​lip tie are gone, the procedure site has recovered to normal with no complications and we think it’s contributing to baby’s ability to feed better.

She is awesome! Non judgmental. I’ve been going to this office for over forty years, I am so thankful for her. She treats each patient as an individual, and truly listens and explains stuff. She is up there with Dr. Wong, and IMHO he was the best. She helped me get my hearing back, how can I even try to put into words, Thank you barely touches my grattiude for all of her help, patience and advice.

I cannot express enough how great Dr. Tylor and her staff are.
I brought my two month in who was diagnosed with a lip and tongue tie. The revision was done that day!
My LO had colic, gas, reflux, and having a hard time nursing or not even really nursing at all. He was on Zantac, gas drops, colic calm, you name it. I was at a loss. I found Dr. Tylor from a tongue tie support group on Facebook. Dr. Tylor was knowledgable and made me feel like she truly was concerned, and cared what was going on. She explained everything that she was going to do and even allowed me in the room while she did it. During this I had my 13 month old with me as well. She could tell how upset I was and said I could leave if I needed to which I did. While in my room one of her staff members came in and comforted me as well as turned the situation from stressful to relaxing as she laughed and played with my 13 month old.
Once the procedure was done Dr. Tylor made the situation even more relaxing by saying how well he did! She brought him back in and he was great! She explained all the after care in detail and gave me resources to go to for after care as well!
It’s only been one day since revision and there has been a vast improvement. My two month old is nursing successfully, there has been no gas or fussiness. It was the best decision I ever made and I couldn’t have done it without the honesty of Dr. Tylor. I highly recommend her! She has made a huge difference in our household and for my LO.

Wanted to add my recent experience because I’m typically not a very cooperative patient when folks attempt to stick things in me, but Dr. Tylor was capable of accomplishing her goal without losing a beat — despite my behavior. Must be her vast experience with babies… I luff her!

Consulted Dr Tylor for an ailment after seeing two specialists. Busy practice and took about two-​three weeks to make the appointment. Dr Tylor’s office is nestled in the corner of a third floor medical building across from Walgreens and the Washington Hospital (West). Although quite a few patients were in the waiting room, Dr Tylor proved to be exceedingly patient and comprehensive in her consultation once the examination room door was closed.
Dr Tylor was excellent, listening attentively and offering guidance and treatment. Very accommodating to all questions and personally helped with paperwork in faxing over a document to a pharmacy. Further recommended supplemental reading material to further my understanding of the issue at hand, not to mention a related ailment Dr Tylor also diagnosed.
The treatment regimen has worked well. It has been a bit challenging to work with the office staff in coordinating follow-​up questions and prescriptions, but Dr Tylor’s care is highly recommended.

I think it’s time someone shared their experience with Dr. Dale A. Tylor and she should be given recognition for her professionalism and patient care.
Dr Tylor was referred by my MD due to my unilateral tinnitus and muffled hearing. Her bedside manner as a physician is commendable and shows her compassion for her patients needs. She listened and gave her full undivided attention as I shared my symptoms. I never felt rushed for both appointments with her.
The office has another ENT doctor which is reassuring as they can both collaborate for patient diagnosis/​treatment if the need arises. As they say, two heads are better than one.
Her staff were efficient and the office was able to accommodate me even with their busy schedule when all other ENT offices I called could only see patients 1 month later (don’t know why it’s so hard to get appointments with ENT doctors!). Dr Tylor even stayed over office hours on my second appointment to take care of my discomfort. She also personally made calls to book and secure me an appointment with another ear specialist/​surgeon as it turns out that my case is a more complicated issue.
On other things, the office is a bit dated but who cares about all that if they can deliver quality care. The audiologist was soft spoken and had a calming manner that made you feel at ease in her enclosed sound chamber. The front office staff was friendly and respectful when you check in and out of the office. They also made sure that they return calls in a timely manner.
I recommend this practice to people looking for an ENT in the Bay Area.
