Otolaryngology |
An otolaryngologist provides comprehensive medical and surgical
care for patients with diseases and disorders that affect
the ears, respiratory and upper alimentary systems and related
structures, and the head and neck in general. Head and facial
plastic and recon-structive surgery are fundamental areas
of practice for most physicians in this specialty. They care
for patients ranging from the newborn to the elderly.
Specialists in this field of medicine are certified by the
American Board of Otolaryngology.
