What is Otolaryngology?

Otolaryngology is a branch of medicine that involves treating the ears, nose and throat. Therefore it is sometimes referred to as an ear, nose and throat (ENT), or otolaryngology – head and neck surgery due when physicians are trained and experienced in both the general ENT and ENT surgical procedures.
