Patient Information
Report
Yes, if you have records or radiology films that pertain to your office visit bring them with you. If you have been referred by another physician, arrange with them to get a copy of your records or have them send a copy for you. Our doctors prefer imaging films instead of discs if available. The majority of our patients will have their surgery as an outpatient day surgery procedure.
Laser Ear Surgery
Report
Lasers have been used by ear surgery specialists for years, but a new technology is making laser ear surgery more effective than ever. The Lumenis OtoLase Flexible CO2 Fiber Delivery System is a recent technological advancement that allows this laser to be used in a very precise manner to help improve hearing and remove infection in the ear.
Hearing Aids
Report
A hearing aid is simply a small sound amplifier that can be worn by the user. It is made up of a microphone, an amplifier and a speaker. The sound travels to the microphone which is then amplified and at the same time "equalized", like the equalizer on your stereo, so that the frequencies which are not as responsive in the hearing of the user can be amplified more than others.
