Memorial Specialty Care ENT & Allergy Clinic

Memorial Specialty Care ENT and Allergy provides the latest in state-of-the-art medical and surgical approaches for adult and pediatric disorders of the ears, nose, throat and related structures of the head and neck (otolaryngology). We also specialize in head and neck cancers, skin cancers (including melanoma), thyroid and parathyroid disorders, as well as treatment for symptoms of allergies and asthma.

Our convenient onsite testing abilities provide patients with audiologists who perform on-site hearing and balance testing. Additional testing includes thyroid function, office-based ultrasound and guided needle biopsy as needed.

Through history review and physical examination, our team determines necessary tests to establish a diagnosis and formulate a treatment plan. We also explain all available options and communicate regularly with patient’s primary care provider.

If patient’s condition requires a surgical procedure, our physicians are credentialed to practice at Decatur Memorial Hospital, St. Mary’s Hospital and the Memorial Surgery Center in Decatur.

Referrals are not necessary.
