The otolaryngologist is trained in:

Laryngology, which is the treatment of patients suffering from voice and swallowing disorders caused by benign or malignant conditions affecting the vocal cords and other vocal/swallowing tract structures;

Maxillofacial and reconstructive surgery, which is a treatment of patients with abnormalities of the face and mouth, including birth defects (such as cleft palates), disfigurement resulting from accidents, and tumors involving the tissues of the mouth. We also perform surgical procedures to reshape the nose or jaws to improve appearance or function;

Nose and sinus allergy, which is the diagnosis and treatment of patients with symptoms and manifestations of nose and sinus allergy, including hay fever and other inhalant seasonal and perennial allergies;

Oncology, which is the treatment of cancer of the head and neck that may involve surgery, radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy. The otolaryngologist works closely with medical and radiation oncologists to design the best possible treatment program;

Otology, which is the medical and/or surgical treatment of diseases and conditions of the ear, such as ear infections, balance problems or dizziness and hearing problems; and

Plastic surgery, which is similar to reconstructive surgery except that the surgery is often done for cosmetic purposes. Plastic surgery is important for patients who have been victims of disfiguring accidents and for those who wish to have a more improved or youthful appearance.

Professional Support Services

Our doctors work closely with other professionals such as audiologists, speech pathologists, dentists and maxillofacial prosthodontists in your care and treatment.

The audiologist conducts diagnostic tests on patients with hearing and balance problems and provides rehabilitative services, such as the selection and fitting of hearing aids.

The speech pathologist provides diagnostic testing and treatment for disorders of the voice, speech and swallowing.

The maxillofacial prosthodontist is a dentist with specialized training in the building of prostheses to improve appearance and function of structures of the head and neck area.
