General Info

Patients who come to the Balance Disorder Center of New Jersey typically have two comments about its director. They say he’s a very good listener and knows a lot about their problems. His teachers at Dartmouth College, a small ivy league school in rural New Hampshire, and later at Columbia University’s medical school, in the most urban of settings, convinced him by their examples that learning never ends. His training continued at the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, and he decided to specialize in ear, nose and throat disorders at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center’s residency program. Dr Cinberg taught his specialty as a university faculty member for the next ten years, which allowed him both to care for patients with particularly complex problems and to do research, an approach he continues to the present. Dr. Cinberg has worked with the Balance Disorder Center since its incorporation in 1991. He is also acknowledged as a pioneer in New Jersey in applying medicines directly to the inner ear to treat dizziness and sudden hearing loss. He received F.D.A. approval to place medicines in the inner ear on an experimental basis in the early nineteen nineties and has New Jersey’s broadest experience with middle ear catheter use to permit the application of medicines to the inner ear.
