What Does an Otolaryngologist (ENT Doctor) Do?

Conclusion

Doctors that specialize on issues with the ears, nose, and throat are called otolaryngologists. They share similarities with ENT physicians. Otolaryngologists have the ability to do surgery in addition to diagnosing and treating these disorders.

Otolaryngologists range in their areas of specialization, with others having a more comprehensive practice. A few examples include otologists (ears), laryngologists (throat), and rhinologists (nose) (ears).

Your local otolaryngologist can be recommended to you by your primary care physician.
