Detailed evaluation can be conducted using a laryngoscope or a videostrobolaryngoscopy. These specialized tools will allow your ENT professional to view images on a large monitor. Once the issue has been properly diagnosed, we can create a customized plan of action for restoring your well-being.
Diagnosing and treating cancer early can be indispensable in terms of ensuring a positive outcome. If you are having symptoms that might indicate cancer of the head and neck, seeing one of our trained, skilled ENT specialists can set your mind at ease.
Symptoms such as chronic tonsillitis, breathing problems, poor sleep, halitosis, and recurring bleeding can all be well-treated with surgery to remove part or all of the tonsils. This is a simple outpatient procedure that does not require an overnight visit.
Both breathing and sleeping can be greatly improved through surgery to correct enlarged adenoids. The treatment can help combat snoring and sleep apnea as well as chronic infections, nasal drainage, congestion, and more. Surgery can be effective in both adults and children.
Performed to treat the condition of hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid surgery provides sustainable relief from symptoms such as kidney stones and bone degradation. Once a portion or all of the parathyroid glands are removed, calcium levels in the blood return to normal. The incision is well-hidden and leads to little or no scarring.
If a thyroid mass is causing problems, our team can surgically remove it, rebalancing your system. This may be the ideal approach if you are suffering from dysphagia or other acute symptoms. Thyroid surgery leaves an inconspicuous scar, and patients can return to their normal schedules within the week.
While tumors in the salivary glands typically turn out to be benign, it is important to get them evaluated professionally in case cancer is present. Surgery can help relieve saliva blockage, salivary stones, and chronic infections so that patients can experience increased comfort and well-being.

Head and Neck FAQ
Who is a candidate?
During your private consultation, our team of ENT experts will conduct a thorough evaluation of your symptoms and determine your candidacy for various treatment options, including surgery. All patients should have realistic and positive attitudes toward their treatments, based on their in-depth initial meeting with our team.
Does a lump in the head or neck area automatically mean cancer?
No. There can be many other underlying health concerns causing the mass, including infection. Our team of caring ENT doctors will get to the heart of your concerns and provide a specialized solution. In the rare event that cancer is present, we can perform a biopsy and recommend tumor removal options.
Will my treatment be painful?
Our doctors will go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable before, during, and after your procedure. If you undergo surgery, you will be completely numb during the process and not feel any pain. Afterward, we can provide you with prescription pain medications to ease any lingering discomfort. Most surgeries are on an outpatient basis with short recovery periods of around one week.
