Otolaryngologists (commonly referred to as ENT surgeons) deal with the diagnosis, evaluation and management of diseases of head and neck and principally the ears, nose and throat.
One of the key areas of concern for
ENT surgeons are helping patients cope with or recover from diseases that impair the senses of hearing and balance. They will also be concerned with the functional aspects of breathing, eating and speech. ENT surgeons also deal with cancers in this region of the body. Many will undertake plastic and reconstructive work on the face.
Unlike most other surgeons,
ENT specialists also act as physicians spending a high proportion of their time running out patient clinics and managing conditions non-operatively through prescribing medicines rather than undertaking surgery. On average, only 15 per cent of the patients seen by ENT surgeons will go onto have an operation. Most of the experienced ENT Surgeons will develop a special interest in a subspecialty. This is largely down to the very broad range of skills they cover.
ENT problems occur in all age groups but infective problems are particularly frequent in young people. Consequently, ENT surgeons see a much higher proportion of pediatric patients than any other branch of surgery, other than specialist paediatric surgeons.
