The Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at Temple University is poised as one of the exceptional otolaryngology programs in our country. The Department is steeped in history dating back to the early 1900’s when Dr. Chevalier Jackson emerged as the “father of endoscopy”, pioneering the field of laryngology to include foreign body removal. Dr. David Myers continued the groundbreaking advancements with the introduction of audiology research and formal otolaryngology residency training.
This innovative spirit, dedication to clinical excellence, commitment to teaching, and pursuit of knowledge continues in the Department today. Our faculty spans the entire depth and breadth of the field to include head and neck surgery, laryngology, otology, neurotology, skull base surgery, rhinology, allergy, sleep medicine, facial plastics & reconstructive surgery as well as pediatric otolaryngology. Many are recognized as national and international experts in their respective subspecialty. Together we provide personalized, compassionate, and cutting-edge care in a multi-disciplinary fashion to patients and their families.
