Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery
General Otolaryngology
General otolaryngology is both a starting point and a destination for ear, nose, and throat patients. Many patients have their initial assessment and investigation with our general ear, nose, and throat specialists before potential referral to other specialists as needed to address specific problems and conditions.
General otolaryngology concentrates on both surgical and non-surgical treatment of a wide variety of ear, nose, throat, head and neck disorders in adults and children, including:
- Infections and lesions of the tonsils and adenoids
- Problems in the mouth (oral lesions, taste/tongue/palate function, evaluation of disease related to tobacco use)
- Throat and swallowing disorders
- Voice box problems (vocal cord/larynx infections, voice disorders, breathing, coughing)
- Neck lesions, nodules, cysts
- Nose and sinus disorders (nasal congestion, facial/sinus pain, nasal discharge, bleeding, smell disorders)
- Salivary gland disease (infections, stones, enlargement, pain, nodules, lesions, inflammatory disorders)
- Thyroid and parathyroid disorders (masses, nodules, enlarged thyroid)
- Snoring and obstructive sleep apnea
- Acute and chronic ear infections, hearing loss, dizziness, tinnitus and eustachian tube issues
