FAQs
What does an otolaryngologist do?
An otolaryngologist, also called an ear, nose and throat doctor, specializes in conditions that affect the ear, nose and throat as well as the face, head and neck. ENT doctors treat common and complex conditions — everything from ear infections, sleep apnea and sinus problems to head and neck cancers and hearing loss.
How can an ENT doctor help with sinuses and allergies?
Sinus problems and allergies don't just bother you seasonally. They can affect your daily life all year long. An ENT doctor can figure out what's driving your symptoms and build a treatment plan that fits your needs, whether that's antibiotics and decongestants or endoscopic sinus surgery.
Do ENT doctors do any type of surgery?
Yes, and the variety is wider than you may think. Your ENT doctor handles everything from sinus and nasal procedures to complex head and neck surgery, using minimally invasive approaches whenever possible to reduce recovery time.
Do ENTs treat hearing loss?
Yes. Whether hearing loss is present from birth or develops later in life — for you or your child — we can help. Treatments include cochlear implants and other options to help regain or improve hearing. A comprehensive rehabilitation program supports recovery and quality of life.
