Overview| Pediatric Otolaryngology (Ear, Nose, & Throat) |
Drs. Peter Koltai, Anna Messner and Kay Chang and Alan Cheng offer comprehensive diagnosis and management of ear, nose, and throat disorders in infants and children. Some examples of pediatric ear problems include otitis media, cholesteatoma, hearing loss, and birth defects (atresia). Problems with the tonsils and adenoids, airway obstruction (e.g., stridor, subglottic stenosis), nasal deformity and polyps, neck masses, craniofacial malformation, and a wide variety of other childhood ENT problems are expertly managed with a special sensitivity to the needs of children and their families. Comprehensive Pediatric Audiology services are offered including both diagnostic and rehabilitative (e.g., hearing aids, auditory trainers for school) modalities. An exemplary Newborn Screening Program for hearing loss is in place at the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital.
