Hearing loss
Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
Balance disorders
Cochlear implantation (a device that helps people with severe hearing loss)
Facial nerve disorders (such as Bell’s Palsy)
Skull base tumors

Otologists-neurotologists use a variety of diagnostic techniques, such as physical examination, imaging tests, and laboratory tests, to identify and diagnose conditions. They also use a range of treatment options, including medical management, surgery, and rehabilitation, to manage these conditions.
In Otology-Neurotology, the focus is on the complex conditions of the ear and nervous system that control hearing and balance. This subspecialty requires an advanced level of knowledge and skill in the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions, and the use of the latest technology and surgical techniques.
In the context of healthcare, Otology-Neurotology plays an important role in maintaining the overall health of the ears and the nerve pathways that connect the ear to the brain, and addressing conditions that can negatively impact an individual’s quality of life, such as severe hearing loss, tinnitus, and balance disorders.
