Private, Comprehensive Care
The New York Otolaryngology Group is of the few private ENT practices to have fellowship trained head & neck surgeons and a micro-vascular reconstructive surgeon on staff specializing in the care of patients with cancers of the upper aerodigestive tract, salivary glands, and sinonasal cavaties, endocrine conditions (including thyroid and parathyroid disease) and related lesions of the head and neck.
This year, 30,000 Americans will be diagnosed with lymph nodes or cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx, and other areas of the upper aerodigestive tract. This number is increasing annually as more people give up cigarettes for 'smokeless' tobacco products believing they are safer.
Still more will be diagnosed with thyroid and parathyroid disorders, which affect metabolic rates, cause osteoporosis and kidney failure, and require surgery.
The New York Otolarngology Group is committed to offering the most comprehensive ear, nose, and throat care available. Its full time, expert Head & Neck surgery team, lead by Dr. Lane Krevitt, draws on a range of specialists - radiation therapists, medical oncologists, dentists, oral surgeons, reconstructive surgeons, radiologists, dieticians, speech pathologists and others - to deliver the level of care typically found at university hospitals and major medical centers in the personalized atmosphere of a private practice.
The New York Otolaryngology Group offers state of the art micro-vascular reconstruction for patients requiring head and neck surgery. Michael Burnett, M.D. is a fellowship trained, well-recognized, micro-vascular head and neck surgeon. With his expertise, reconstruction of surgical defects can minimize side effects from even major surgeries.
