What is otolaryngology?
Otolaryngology is an area of medicine that studies ear, nose, and throat disorders. We call a doctor who specializes in these disorders an ENT doctor, ENT specialist, or otolaryngologist. ENT doctors offer basic medical treatment, as well as surgery.
The ENT surgeons at Lakeside Hospital have experience in both traditional surgery and minimally invasive robotic surgery. With less invasive surgery techniques, you often recover faster—with less pain and scarring. Our team also has neurotology subspecialists. They focus on brain disorders that affect the ear.
