General Practitioners

• Sinusitis
  Balloon Sinuplasty is a surgical treatment option for patients who suffer from chronic sinusitis that can’t be managed medically. It’s safe, effective, and less invasive than other procedures, requiring no cutting of bone or tissue.
• Medical Weight Loss
  Snoring in children is often the result of overgrown tonsils and adenoids. If this is the case, surgical removal can often restore normal airflow. This is generally recommended only in severe cases; your child’s doctor may take a wait-and-see approach if symptoms are minor. Other solutions include weight loss or Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices or mouth guards.
• Pediatric Care
• Snoring
  The Pillar Procedure is a simple surgery designed to treat snoring and sleep apnea. It involves placing polyester implants into the soft palate to offer structural support and reduce tissue vibrations that cause snoring.
• Ear Infections
  Ear infections occur when fluid fills the space between the eardrum and the inner ear. This happens when the Eustachian tube becomes blocked due to a virus or bacterium, which prevents mucus and pus from draining out of the middle ear. These fluids put pressure on the eardrum, causing pain and discomfort.
• Sleep Disorders
  Positive Airway Pressure, or PAP therapy is the most commonly prescribed treatment for patients suffering from Obstructive Sleep Apnea. This sleep disorder affects an estimated 18 million Americans and is characterized by periodic breathing interruptions throughout the night. These pauses, or gaps, in breathing may be accompanied by choking or gasping, but rarely awaken the sleeping individual. Patients with OSA experience excessive daytime sleepiness and have an increased risk of serious health issues such as congestive heart failure, stroke, heart attack, high blood pressure, and cardiac arrhythmia.
• Urinary Incontinence

Gynecologists

• Pregnancy

Internists

• Endoscopy
  In addition to a physical examination and a review of your medical history, an ENT will inspect your nasal passages for polyps and other abnormalities and check for inflammation and a buildup of fluid. Additional tests utilizing nasal endoscopy, CT scans, MRIs and allergy tests can be used to help confirm the diagnosis.

Endocrinologist

• Diabetes Care
• Thyroid
  Causes of dizziness include low blood pressure, anemia, dehydration, heat-related disorders, endocrine system disorders (e.g., diabetes, thyroid disease), heart conditions, high blood pressure, viral and bacterial infections, head trauma, hyperventilation, neurological disorders and certain medications.
• Thyroid Cancer
  About 90 percent of head and neck cancers are caused by tobacco and alcohol use. People who have been exposed to radiation, either during medical treatments as children (common in decades past) or from nuclear radiation sources, are at considerable risk for thyroid cancer and should be screened yearly.

Radiologist

• MRI
  MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging can clearly show tumors near bones, smaller tumors and brainstem masses. It uses a magnetic field rather than x-ray radiation.
• X-Rays
• Computed Tomography
  There are a number of diagnostic tests available, ranging from X-rays and CT scans to more in-depth tests. Here are some of the most common...
• Chemotherapy
  Treatment for throat cancer depends on the tumor’s size, location and whether it has spread to other areas of the body. Radiation therapy, surgery and chemotherapy – or a combination of the three – may be employed.
• Radiation Therapy
  Radiation therapy delivers radiation to the cancerous cells through X-rays or other high-energy beams, causing them to die. It is most effective in early-stage cancers, where it may be the only treatment necessary.

Plastic Surgeons

• Liposuction
  Coblation palatoplasty is a surgical procedure used to treat snoring and mild cases of obstructive sleep apnea. It is similar in concept to liposuction, and involves reducing the size and thickness of the soft palate and uvula.
• Rhinoplasty

Dermatologists

• Skin Cancer
  Secondary cancers are tumors that have spread from primary tumors in other parts of the body to the head or neck. Most often, secondary tumors of the neck originate in the lung, breast, kidney or from skin cancers (squamous cell carcinoma or melanoma).
• Cyst
• Lesions
  Somnoplasty is an outpatient procedure that relies on low levels of radiofrequency heat energy to shrink tissue. The patient is given a local anesthetic and the entire procedure takes only 30 to 45 minutes. A thin, needle-like electrode is used to create lesions beneath the lining of the soft tissues in the throat. The body reabsorbs the lesions during the healing process, which takes from three to eight weeks.
• Burns

Physical Therapists

• Occupational Therapy
  Options include medications (antihistamines, sedatives, antibiotics, steroids), physical or occupational therapy, surgery, repositioning exercises, vestibular retraining programs and lifestyle modifications such as dietary changes and elimination of alcohol and nicotine.

Allergists

• Allergies
  Non-allergic rhinitis produces cold-like symptoms that can leave you feeling miserable and worn down. It may take allergy testing to rule out hay fever and accurately diagnose non-allergic rhinitis.
