Otolaryngology
USC Verdugo Hills Hospital offers a full breadth of services for conditions affecting the ear, nose and throat. Whether you are suffering from allergies, hearing loss, hoarseness, sleep disorders or head and neck cancer, we offer a variety of treatments to provide effective and lasting relief from your condition.
At USC Verdugo Hills Hospital, we offer advanced diagnostic tools, image-guided sinus surgery, and excision of both benign and cancerous lesions of the head and neck. Our physicians also perform minimally invasive parathyroid and sinus surgeries, as well as treat voice disorders, such as hoarseness, soreness, nodes or polyps.
Specialized Care
The otolaryngology team is comprised of ear, nose and throat specialists who are experts in subspecialty care. Our physicians have significant expertise in voice disorders, reconstructive facial plastic surgery, head and neck cancer and general otolaryngology.
Fewer Incisions
Our physicians use minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat ear, nose and throat disorders. This technology allows surgeons to effectively diagnose and treat a condition with both fewer and smaller incisions, ultimately lessening recovery time.
