Summary
- I specialize in otology, neurotology, and skull base surgery. I see patients in clinic, perform surgery, and direct a research lab. In addition, I am the Chair of the USC Caruso Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery. Scientific knowledge, inquiry, and discovery form the foundation for how I care for patients.
