Services
Balloon Sinuplasty
Balloon sinuplasty is a minimally invasive treatment for chronic sinusitis. Using a balloon catheter, ENT specialists gently widen sinus passageways to improve drainage without incisions. This office-based procedure offers rapid recovery, lasting symptom relief, and reduced infection risk. Ideal candidates include patients with recurring sinus infections unresponsive to medication.
Thyroid Surgery
Thyroid surgery removes part or all of the thyroid gland to treat cancer, goiters, or hyperthyroidism. Our surgeons use precise techniques to preserve surrounding structures while ensuring complete removal of diseased tissue. Postoperative care includes hormone replacement guidance and monitoring for optimal recovery and long-term health outcomes.
Hearing Aids
Our audiologists provide comprehensive hearing evaluations and advanced hearing aid technology. Custom fittings address mild to severe hearing loss, with options including behind-the-ear, in-canal, and receiver-in-canal devices. We offer ongoing support for device maintenance, adjustments, and auditory rehabilitation to improve communication and quality of life.
Nasal Disorders
We diagnose and treat chronic nasal congestion, deviated septums, and sinus inflammation using medical and surgical approaches. Image-guided sinus surgery and balloon dilation techniques restore normal airflow and drainage. Personalized treatment plans target underlying causes to reduce symptoms like headaches and breathing difficulties for lasting relief.
Ear Infections
Chronic ear infections are managed through advanced diagnostics and targeted interventions. For recurrent cases, we perform myringotomy with ear tube placement to prevent fluid buildup and hearing loss. Our team specializes in pediatric care, ensuring safe, effective treatment for children with frequent infections or developmental concerns.

Report
I went to Austin ENT at the recommendation of my family doctor. Met with the doctor once to discuss breathing issues I've been having and the possibility of correcting a deviated septum to help this issues (poor breathing, bad sleep, snoring, etc). Doctor was in the exam room for maybe 5 minutes - looked up my nose once, and discussed that we could likely do a septoplasty to correct this. I felt like I was moved through the office like cattle at market. Took two weeks for me to hear back from the office regarding scheduling, cost, etc.
They did reach out as soon as they heard back from my insurance and found I needed to pay another $145 to cover my deductible. I actually went ahead and schedule the procedure, then had second thoughts. Sought out a second opinion from the doctor my boss used and had two diff people look at me that morning, for a total of about 30 minutes doing multiple exams to determine my condition. It was decided we could try a non-surgical procedure first before having to consider surgery. Guess which doctor I'm now seeing! I just didn't feel I was treated as if they cared at this office.

I waited in the waiting room for an hour just for the doctor to tell me that posterior tongue tie isn't real and that dentists will make it up. I'm trying to seek help for my grinding and sleeping issues, and this doctor told me that a dental term that I use in-office isn't real. Don't come here unless you want to be gaslit.

Lauren has been an awesome audiologist! She explained my hearing deficit and helped me learn how it could be made better, helping me understand the technology of the new hearing aids. I received my hearing aids in one week, and was able to experience the joy of good hearing once again! I feel confident that I will be very happy with my new "ears"!

Although the staff is friendly and the doctors seem capable, I cannot recommend Austin ENT Associates because of the horrible billing experience I have had with them, and the healthcare providers they chose, from start to finish. I have spent over 50 hours of my personal time dealing directly with this issue. I would strongly advise bringing your business elsewhere. If you do choose Austin ENT Associates, don't give them any money until you've received an Explanation of Benefits that details your patient responsibility.

Absolutely awful, atrocious front office staff, didn't bother to send paperwork ahead of appointment and day of appointment couldn't lift a finger to verify my insurance. Made ME call the insurance to try to verify it myself. Needless to say I couldn't get through. They could easily call the insurance being they are providers and can get verification, but they're too lazy to lift a finger. Terrible service, will be going to different ENT specialist. DO NOT GO HERE.
