Medical Weight Loss
Head and neck cancers can present in a variety of ways depending on the locations. Concerning symptoms that should prompt a patient to seek medical attention include voice changes, pain or difficulty swallowing, unexplained persisting ear pain, coughing or spitting up blood, unexplained weight loss, an ulcer or discoloration or a neck mass.
Primary Care
Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) is a very common problem which often worsens with age. It can be caused by tumors, strictures (narrowing of the swallow tube), stroke, acid reflux, and other systemic diseases that adversely affect the esophagus. We work with your Primary Care Provider, Speech Therapists and often your Gastroenterologist to develop treatment plans to improve your ability to swallow.
Ear Infections
We love children and promise to treat your kids as if they were ours. There are few things worse that caring for a sick child and as ENTs we have the opportunity to help. We commonly treat conditions such as chronic ear infections, tonsillitis, sinusitis, allergies, sleep apnea, chronic cough, and acid reflux to name a few. Surgeries that we commonly perform include...
Emergency Care
Emergencies: Our physicians are available 24 hours a day to meet your needs when emergencies occur. If you need urgent attention, please go to the nearest emergency room or call 911 for assistance. The emergency room physician will evaluate your medical problem and consult with our on call physicians when necessary. If you are uncertain what to do, please call our office and a nurse can give you advice on how to proceed. If the office is closed, you can call the office number at 256 233-1650 and the answering service personnel will have the “on-call” physician call you back.

Kidney Stones
Abnormal elevations in calcium and PTH levels requires a thorough evaluation as there may be significant consequences on several systems in the body, most notably the kidneys and bones leading to conditions such as kidney damage, kidney stones and bone thinning with increased fracture risk.
Endoscopy
If a patient presents experiencing any of the above symptoms a thorough history and physical exam will be performed. Depending on these findings additional studies or test may be performed including possible endoscopy, biopsy and imaging (CAT scan).

Endocrinologist

Thyroid

Ultrasound
This is the time point at which we usually evaluate patients. Now, if an ultrasound has not been performed we would arrange for one in our clinic. The ultrasound is a powerful tool for risk assessment of thyroid nodules. It allows us to assess size and features that are considered high risk. Based on specific ultrasound criteria outlined by the American Thyroid Association we determine the need to biopsy thyroid nodules. The biopsy, if necessary, is surprising easy to tolerate in the clinic.
MRI
Nodular disease of the thyroid is relatively common condition. Nodules may come to our attention in different ways. Most commonly nodules are noted because patients or their physicians can feel them. Studies show that around 5% of females and 1% of males have thyroid nodules that can be felt on exam, the medical term for this is a palpable thyroid nodule. Imaging techniques, particularly ultrasound, are significantly more sensitive and find thyroid nodules at a much higher rate that we may not be able to feel. Studies show that the rate of ultrasound detected nodule range from 19-68%, with higher rates in the elderly and women. It is important to note however that the US Preventative Services Task Force does not recommend routine screening for thyroid nodules or cancer by either exam or ultrasound in patients without symptoms or high risk history because the data does not support this to be a beneficial practice for patients. If a thyroid nodule does come to your doctor’s attention either by exam or incidentally during an imaging study, such as a CT or MRI, it is important to be evaluated because of the possibility a thyroid nodule may represent a cancer. Approximately 7-15% of thyroid nodules harbor cancer and this varies based on a patients age, sex and high risk history.
