Ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialists are medical doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases or conditions of the ear, nose, and throat. They may also be called otolaryngologists and head and neck surgeons. ENT doctors perform surgery for sinus and sleep problems, remove tonsils and tumors, help with hearing and balance problems, and more. Some ENT doctors also do cosmetic and reconstructive surgery (plastic surgery).
All of our ENT doctors are certified through the Board of Otolaryngology, which is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties. Within our group, we have specialists with areas of interest in General Otolaryngology for adults and children. We provide care for sinonasal and allergic diseases in both populations. Our goal is to provide excellent care at the forefront of medical advances through our academic practice affiliated with SUNY Upstate Medical Center and Medical University. Moreover, we strive to provide care that is comprehensive, compassionate and respectful to every patient and family.
