Who are we as otolaryngologists? We are physicians (MDs and DOs) trained to take care of medical and surgical problems of the ear, nose, throat, head, and neck. The American Board of Otolaryngology’s (ABOto) primary certificate qualifies us to practice “otolaryngology including general otolaryngology, otology, facial plastic surgery, head and neck surgery, and pediatric otolaryngology.”
