Philosophy of care

For a relatively small specialty, we see a remarkable range of patients with medical and surgical ENT issues. I enjoy treating patients of all ages across the ENT spectrum. I particularly enjoy the intricate challenges of complex facial reconstruction after facial skin cancer resection, nasal surgery, minimally invasive sinus surgery including balloon sinuplasty, thyroid and parathyroid surgery, pediatric ear, nose and throat surgery, and head and neck oncologic surgery. In all of this, I have always subscribed to the simple and powerful philosophy of patient care that “the needs of the patient come first.”
