Evaluation, hearing technology, and medical or surgical care for ear concerns.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Hearing testing & hearing changes
A hearing evaluation helps identify the type and degree of hearing loss. Testing may include speech and tone testing and checks of middle-ear function. Findings guide a discussion of medical care, hearing devices, or further evaluation.
02
Hearing aids & ongoing support
Hearing aids are selected and fitted around your hearing needs and daily activities. Follow-up visits can address fit, sound settings, cleaning, repairs, and accessories. Ask the office about available devices and aftercare services.
03
Custom earmolds & earplugs
Custom-fit hearing protection can be designed for noise exposure, music, swimming, or specialized listening needs. The right option depends on your ear shape, comfort, and intended use.
04
Swimmer’s ear, earwax & tinnitus
Ear pain, a blocked sensation, drainage, or ringing can have different causes. An ear examination helps distinguish outer-ear infection, wax buildup, and other conditions so care can be tailored to the finding.
05
Ear microsurgery
A persistent eardrum opening or problems with the small bones of the middle ear may require surgical evaluation. Procedures such as tympanoplasty aim to repair the eardrum or address middle-ear function. Your doctor will explain suitability, risks, and recovery.

Care for congestion, recurring sinus concerns, and structural nasal problems.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Sinusitis
Sinus inflammation can cause congestion, facial pressure, drainage, and reduced comfort. Evaluation helps distinguish short-term infection from ongoing sinus disease. Care may include medication, symptom management, or a discussion of procedures when appropriate.
02
Nasal polyps
Nasal polyps are noncancerous growths that can contribute to blockage and changes in smell. An examination helps assess their extent and guide treatment, which may include medication or a procedure when needed.
03
Deviated septum & nasal obstruction
The septum divides the two sides of the nose. When its shape contributes to breathing difficulty, your doctor can discuss medical management and whether septoplasty is appropriate. Other sources of nasal blockage are evaluated as part of the visit.
04
Balloon sinuplasty & sinus surgery
Selected patients with persistent sinus disease may be candidates for balloon dilation or endoscopic sinus surgery. Your symptoms, examination, imaging when needed, and response to other care help determine the approach. Image guidance may be used in appropriate cases.
05
Medication-releasing sinus implants
PROPEL and SINUVA are medication-releasing implants used in different sinus-care settings; candidacy depends on the diagnosis and treatment history. Ask the team about current availability and whether an implant belongs in your treatment plan.
06
VivAer® consultation
A consultation can help clarify the cause of nasal obstruction and whether VivAer may be an option. Contact the team to discuss availability, candidacy, and alternatives.

Personalized evaluation of allergy symptoms and their connection to ENT concerns.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Environmental allergies & allergy management
Sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, and a runny nose can interfere with daily life. A review of your symptoms and exposures, an ENT examination, and testing when appropriate help guide a plan. Management may include reducing exposure, medication, or a discussion of immunotherapy.
02
Food allergies
A suspected food allergy deserves an individualized assessment. Your history and appropriate testing help clarify whether symptoms may reflect an allergy or another cause. The team can discuss avoidance, care planning, and whether specialist follow-up is needed.
03
Insect sting allergies
Reactions to stings range from local discomfort to serious allergic symptoms. A history of a significant reaction may warrant allergy evaluation and a personalized prevention and treatment plan.
04
Allergies in children
Children’s allergy symptoms can overlap with other causes of congestion or nasal irritation. Evaluation focuses on the child’s symptoms and likely triggers, with treatment discussed in an age-appropriate way.

A closer look at persistent throat symptoms, voice changes, and sleep-related breathing concerns.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Hoarseness & vocal cord nodules
A raspy, strained, or changing voice may relate to irritation, voice use, reflux, or a vocal cord condition. Examination of the voice box helps identify the cause. Vocal cord nodules are benign growths; care may include voice therapy, changes in voice habits, or other treatment based on the findings.
02
Voice evaluation & surgery
Some voice problems need targeted treatment beyond routine symptom care. Depending on the diagnosis, options may include voice therapy, medical treatment, or a procedure involving the vocal cords. The goal is a plan suited to the condition and your voice needs.
03
Acid reflux & throat irritation
Reflux can contribute to throat and voice symptoms. Your doctor will review your history and examine the relevant areas to determine whether reflux or another cause may be involved, then discuss appropriate care.
04
Snoring & sleep apnea
Snoring can occur with or without sleep apnea. Evaluation considers the airway, symptoms, and sleep testing when appropriate. Treatment depends on the cause and may involve coordination with sleep care or a discussion of selected procedures.
05
Tonsil & adenoid surgery
Repeated infections or enlarged tonsils and adenoids may lead to a discussion of surgery. Your doctor will assess the pattern of symptoms, breathing concerns, and expected benefits and risks before recommending an approach.

Evaluation of neck masses, salivary gland concerns, and thyroid and parathyroid conditions.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Parotid & salivary gland tumors
The parotid glands help produce saliva. A lump or swelling near a gland needs assessment to understand its cause. Evaluation may include examination, imaging, or a needle biopsy. If surgery is recommended, your surgeon will discuss the procedure and the nearby facial nerve.
02
Thyroid nodules & enlargement
A thyroid lump or enlargement may be assessed with an examination, ultrasound, blood tests, and a needle biopsy when appropriate. Findings help guide monitoring, additional evaluation, or a discussion of surgery.
03
Parathyroid conditions
The parathyroid glands help regulate calcium. Certain gland abnormalities may lead to surgical evaluation. The team can review the diagnosis, relevant testing, and whether parathyroid surgery is appropriate.
04
Head & neck tumors
Growths in the head and neck require an individualized diagnostic plan. Surgical care may involve the salivary glands, voice box, neck lymph nodes, or nasal region. Treatment depends on the location and diagnosis, with care coordinated as needed.
05
Voice box tumors
Growths involving the voice box may be benign or cancerous. Evaluation helps establish the diagnosis and guide treatment. Options depend on the findings and may include surgery or coordination with other specialists.

Ear, nose, and throat evaluation for children, with time for parents’ questions.
CARE THAT FEELS PERSONAL
01
Ear infections, fluid & ear tubes
Repeated ear infections or persistent middle-ear fluid can affect comfort and hearing. Your child’s symptoms and hearing findings help guide observation, medical care, or a discussion of ear tubes.
02
Tonsils & adenoids
Enlarged or frequently infected tonsils and adenoids can contribute to throat symptoms, nasal obstruction, or sleep concerns. An assessment helps determine whether ongoing care or surgery should be considered.
03
Snoring & sleep-related breathing
Persistent snoring or concerns about breathing during sleep deserve attention. Evaluation considers the child’s airway and tonsils and adenoids, with further testing or treatment discussed as needed.
04
Hearing changes & communication
Hearing difficulties can have several causes, including middle-ear fluid. Age-appropriate hearing assessment helps guide medical care, hearing support, or referrals based on your child’s needs.
05
Childhood allergy symptoms
Sneezing, congestion, and an itchy or runny nose may call for allergy assessment. The team can discuss likely triggers and an individualized plan for your child.
