ENT physicians specializing in rhinology collaborate with health care providers across a multitude of specialties such as pulmonary critical care, allergy and immunology, infectious disease and immunology. Through this multidisciplinary effort, we provide comprehensive patient care and resident training in disorders of the nose and paranasal sinuses, including:

  • Acute and chronic rhinosinusitis
  • Nasal polyposis
  • Allergic fungal sinusitis
  • Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD)
  • Nasal obstruction
  • Deviated nasal septum
  • Environmental allergy
  • Turbinate dysfunction
  • Sinonasal trauma
  • Benign and malignant tumors of the paranasal sinuses

We provide the latest innovations in surgical treatments, such as:

  • Primary and revision functional endoscopic sinus surgery
  • Septoplasty and inferior turbinate reduction
  • Functional septorhinoplasty and nasal valve repair
  • Advanced endoscopic and open approaches to the paranasal sinuses
  • Endoscopic and open oncologic procedures for sinonasal neoplasms
  • Balloon sinuplasty

Physicians specializing in rhinology collaborate with colleagues across multiple disciplines to conduct cutting-edge, minimally invasive surgeries to treat conditions of the skull base.
