Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) & Audiology

Ear, Nose and Throat

Advanced Care for the Ear, Nose and Throat

Otolaryngologists or ear, nose and throat (ENT) doctors are trained in the medical and surgical management of diseases and disorders of the ear, nose and throat, as well as the head and neck. For adults and children with problems affecting the ears, nose and throat, Weiss Memorial Hospital ENT specialists can provide extensive diagnostic evaluation of your condition or disorder and employ innovative treatment approaches that minimize complications and side effects.

Audiology is the testing and management of hearing and balance problems in people of all ages. Clinical audiologists specialize in the treatment of hearing disorders. They measure and evaluate the ability of adults and children to hear sounds. Audiologists conduct hearing evaluations, test for middle ear disease, treat people with balance problems and fit hearing aids.
