ENT/Otolaryngology

Diseases and disorders of the ears, nose, throat, head, and neck adversely impact millions of people of all ages. Otolaryngology (pronounced oh/toe/lair/in/goll/oh/jee) is the oldest medical specialty in the United States. Otolaryngologists are commonly referred to as ENT physicians.
