Hello, I'm Dr. John Boone, founder of PrimaryENT. It truly is a blessing to serve you, your family, and your friends!
— Dr. BooneFounded on Straightforward Care
Dr. Boone earned his medical degree from the University of Oklahoma and completed his ENT and Head & Neck Surgery training at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. He moved to Minnesota in 2013 and founded Primary ENT on a simple idea: patients do better with straightforward, personal care instead of the layers of a big health system.
As a practicing otolaryngologist for more than 10 years, he's found that approach saves patients more than 20% compared to big health systems — while keeping care personal.
