Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Surgery
Merit Health Natchez offers a range of surgical treatments to address ear, nose and throat conditions, including minimally invasive endoscopic techniques. Ear, nose and throat doctors (otolaryngologists or ENT doctors) have a broad range of experience to provide surgical treatment for everything from nasal congestion to a deviated septum or broken nose.
Board-certified ENT doctors provide a range of treatment options, including:
- Cochlear implants and bone conduction devices
- PE tubes (pressure equalizer) for ears
- Sinus surgery, including endoscopic techniques
- Septoplasty
- Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy
- Turbinate surgery
We are committed to providing patients with minimally invasive techniques, such as:
-
Balloon dilation surgery - In this procedure, small, flexible devices are inserted into the nostrils to gently open blocked sinus openings to alleviate symptoms of chronic sinusitis. This technique results in less bleeding, a quicker recovery, and does not limit further treatment options.
-
Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) - Surgeons use robotic surgery to gain greater accuracy and surgical precision for treating mouth and throat cancers. This robotic technique results in less pain and scarring, and a quicker recovery for patients.
Merit Health Natchez is dedicated to offering quality surgical technology and treatment options to provide patients with care close to home.
