COVID-19 Update

At the recommendation of the State of Ohio and our ENT governing body, we will only be seeing urgent patients EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY. Our ancillary departments are CLOSED (CT, Allergy, Audiology/Hillcrest, and Voice).

We are making efforts to contact all scheduled patients to postpone or reschedule their appointments. We are also exploring telemedicine options and will keep you updated.

We appreciate your understanding in these unprecedented times. Please call (937) 496-2600 for medical or scheduling questions. As soon as we are able, we will contact you and reschedule your appointment.
