Head & Neck Surgery
From throat cancer and cysts of the neck to thyroid disease and lymph node enlargements, practitioners in the Department of Otolaryngology treat patients with any medical issues of the head and neck, excluding the spine and spinal cord.
Hearing Assessment
We’re able to diagnose and distinguish between simple, reversible hearing loss and more permanent, nerve-based hearing loss.
Balance Disorders
From motion sickness and vertigo to viral balance disorders and Meniere’s disease, physicians in the Department of Otolaryngology diagnose and treat a wide variety of vestibular disorders.
While balance disorders were once commonly treated with surgery, DMC otolaryngologists are often able to treat patients on site through medical management and vestibular therapy or exercises.
Voice, Swallow & Speech Rehabilitation
As the U.S. population ages and an increasing number of patients receive radiation and chemotherapy for head and neck cancers, voice and swallowing disorders are on the rise. DMC ENT specialists use videostroboscopy and comprehensive voice and swallowing measurement tools for the diagnosis of a wide range of head and neck pathologies.
Our experts provide a wide variety of innovative medical treatments and follow-up rehabilitation therapies for swallowing function, regardless of the underlying cause.
Pediatric ENT Services
ENT specialists collaborate with Children’s Hospital of Michigan, using a wide range of medical and surgical interventions to treat injuries, diseases and congenital anomalies of the ear, nose and throat.
