SCOPE OF PRACTICE

Otology (Medical and Surgical Ear Care)

Tampa Bay ENT treats a wide variety of ear problems. From infections/pain to earwax to eardrum reconstruction, our surgeons are qualified to help you with your ear complaints.

Snoring Disorders/Sleep Apnea

The causes of snoring and/or sleep apnea can be either medical or surgical or more commonly a combination of the two. We offer extensive evaluation to determine which treatment modality suits your individual needs.

Voice Evaluation and Treatment

Changes in your voice can be from a number of causes. Patients are often seen by an ENT physician to evaluate the source. We have in-office fiberoptic instrumentation that allows us to view what may be causing your hoarseness so we can offer the most up to date therapy.

Skin Cancer Surgery

Unfortunately, skin cancer within the head and neck is extremely common in Florida. The surgeons at Tampa Bay ENT have expert knowledge of head and neck anatomy to maximize cure and minimize your scars.

Thyroid and Parathyroid Treatment

The thyroid gland is a butterfly shaped gland located low in the central part to the neck. When nodules form in the thyroid, patients are often referred to an ENT physician for further evaluation and possible treatment. Parathyroid glands are four glands located around the thyroid that regulate your calcium.

At Tampa Bay ENT, your thyroid/parathyroid surgery will be performed by two surgeons working together to offer double the expertise while employing a minimally invasive incision.

Head and Neck CancerSurgery

Cancers of the Head and Neck can be extremely frightening. There are many different types and treatment options available. We offer extensive evaluation and treatment options in coordination with a multidisciplinary team to offer the best cure for your cancer.

Throat/Swallowing Evaluation

Patients are often referred with either throat pain, difficulty swallowing, or both. We provide both evaluation for the cause as well as available treatment options.

Balloon Sinuplasty

Balloon Sinuplasty technology is a minimally-invasive surgical option for the treatment of blocked sinuses. Patients that have been diagnosed with chronic sinusitis and are not responding well to medications may be a candidate for surgery. The FDA-cleared technology uses a small, flexible, sinus balloon catheter to open up blocked sinus passageways, restoring normal sinus drainage. When the sinus balloon is inflated, it gently restructures and widens the walls of the passageway while maintaining the integrity of the sinus lining.
