    Services Offered

    Balance Testing

    The inner ear has circular canals that contain fluid which helps keep you balanced.
    If you have started to feel as though you’re leaning more to one side, having trouble standing upright, or nearly falling as you walk, a balance test can be performed. This series of tests can help determine the cause of your imbalance and guide the providers to the correct solution.

    Ear Hygiene & Wax Removal

    Ear hygiene can be a tricky line to walk. By over-cleaning your ears with cotton swabs, you can risk infections or punctures, but under-cleaning can lead to a build-up of earwax and even difficulty hearing. Our staff will provide a thorough ear cleaning if you are experiencing wax build-up, allowing you to hear more easily.

    Repair of Eardrum Perforation

    Eardrum perforation is a small hole or a tear in the eardrum. This is most often caused by repeated ear infections, trauma, or injury to the area. When this occurs, a minor surgical procedure is used to repair the perforation by using a graft of skin or tissue from another area to patch it. This helps stop any side effects, as well as ensure that the tear does not become larger over time or create further impact.

    Surgical Treatment of Chronic Ear Infections

    Chronic ear infections can occur in both adults and children and can make daily life more challenging than necessary. Constant ear pain and other symptoms can get in the way of your everyday activities. When ear infections have become chronic or medication no longer helps to improve them, surgery can be performed to stop them from returning.

    Ear Tubes

    Ear tubes can be used to treat a build-up of fluids, middle ear infections, inflammation of the middle ear, or other types of chronic ear infections. These small plastic pieces are inserted into the ears, offering patients lasting relief for several months. The tubes will naturally fall out on their own and the hole will close, so repeat visits are not necessary.

    Surgical Experts

    Texas ENT Specialists also perform ear surgeries to treat specific ear conditions and repair areas of the ear that have been damaged or infected. 

    The ears help keep us balanced, allow us to hear, and connect the throat to the inner ear. Performing surgery in this area of the body must be done with the greatest of surgical expertise. Our surgeons’ qualifications include fellowship training, board certification, and years of clinical experience. This ensures that the surgery is performed as safely and successfully as possible.
