At the Johns Hopkins Division of Pediatric Otolaryngology, we recognize the unique issues involved in treating children with diseases of the ear, nose and throat. Our team -- comprised of otolaryngologists with advanced training in pediatrics, nurses, audiologists and speech-language pathologists -- combined with the pediatric surgical services at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, provide children with the latest methods of evaluation and treatment in a child-centered environment. Evaluation and treatment The experience and advanced training of our pediatric otolaryngologists enable us to treat the full range of otolaryngology problems seen in children. For instance, we treat children with common illnesses such as tonsillitis, sinusitis and otitis media (ear infections) using the latest guidelines for medical treatment and the most advanced techniques for surgical treatment. We also assess and treat children with more unusual disorders not typically treated in community settings, including complex airway disorders, congenital head and neck abnormalities, chronic ear disease and acquired or congenital masses of the head and neck. Children with ear, nose and throat diseases who need special care because of complicating medical conditions, such as asthma, heart disease, developmental disorders, etc., can receive optimal care within the division using the full resources of the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center.
