Department of Otolaryngology
Paul R. Lambert, MD, Professor & Department Chair

Welcome to the Department of Otolaryngology (ENT) - Head and Neck Surgery at the Medical University of South Carolina. As Chairman of the Department, it is my privilege to introduce the comprehensive medical and surgical services which are detailed on this Web site. Simply stated, these services and programs are unsurpassed within South Carolina and regionally. Our excellence is directly attributable to our nationally recognized faculty, most of whom have subspecialty training (fellowships) in the various areas of ear, nose, and throat medicine and surgery. Examples include specialists in ear surgery (otology), sinus disease (rhinology), allergy, head and neck cancer, voice disorders (laryngology), swallowing disorders, facial plastic surgery, maxillofacial prosthodontics and cosmetic dentistry, and pediatric ENT.

Our physicians have written textbooks, are invited speakers at other universities nationally and internationally, and are recognized by peer publications such as Best Doctors in the U.S. and Best Doctors in the Southeast Region. The care they provide is second to none.

We are aided in our #1 Mission – patient care – by the availability of cutting edge technology that people expect at a university medical center. In addition, our department is actively involved in various areas of research, including hearing loss, swallowing disorders, sinus disease, and cancer. One measure of our research expertise and success is the fact that we are one of the Top 12 ENT departments in the country in National Institutes for Health (NIH) funding. By combining cutting edge technologies with laboratory discoveries, we optimize health and quality of life for our patients. We are further aided in our mission of top quality patient care by our affiliation with hundreds of other medical specialists at MUSC who provide the multidisciplinary approach to certain diseases that can make the critical difference.

Otolaryngology Services Brochure (PDF format)

Our physicians see patients at four offices: Rutledge Tower (at MUSC), Hollings Cancer Center (at MUSC), East Cooper Medical Arts Building (on the campus of the East Cooper Hospital in Mount Pleasant), and MUSC Specialty North Office (in North Charleston adjacent to Charleston Southern University). In Rutledge Tower and Hollings Cancer Center, we occupy more than 14,000 square feet with 16 examination rooms. Our 3,200 square-foot East Cooper office opened in 2001 and our 3,800 square-foot office in North Charleston opened in 2007. Both offices offer comprehensive services in all areas of ENT, including complete audiology and vestibular testing and hearing aid fitting and services.

We look forward to serving you in the future. As our mission statement affirms, we care for our patients with compassion, efficiency and excellence.
