Our Services
At Loyola University Medical Center we have all the disciplines needed for the comprehensive treatment of head and neck malignancies including cancers of the mouth and throat, salivary glands, sinus and skull base. We also treat cancer of the thyroid and the skin of the head and neck including melanoma. Our group includes board certified and fellowship trained otolaryngologists proficient in both traditional and minimally invasive techniques used in the surgical management of head and neck cancer patients. We continue to push the forefront in treating skull base tumors using transnasal endoscopic skull base surgery (TNSBS). When oncologically appropriate we also use the LASER for the endoscopic resection of laryngeal and pharyngeal cancers, decreasing recovery time for patients.Audiology

outpatient procedure to treat snoring disorders.
