I enjoy the privilege of helping a patient understand their problem and treat the condition with medicine or surgery, and see the joy in the patient after helping them heal from disease. I love seeing patients of all ages in my practice and am truly challenged by the broad practice of otolaryngology. I have a special interest in research, which serves to advance medicine in all areas, and I have helped to bring to market new therapies and medical devices that continue to provide better ways to combat disease and illness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
