I am trained in all areas of pediatric otolaryngology. Common procedures include tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy and insertion of ear tubes. Furthermore, I manage a variety of congenital and acquired conditions of the head and neck, including choanal atresia, neck masses, feeding and respiratory problems, neonatal tongue-tie, sinusitis, airway obstruction and more complex ear disease.
I have been involved with computers in medicine for many years. In addition to my book on medical websites, I have authored a number of articles and chapters on this subject. I have served as the Internet editor for the AMA journal Archives of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and as the chairman of the technology committees of both our national ENT Academy (the AAOHNS) and our national pediatric ENT society (ASPO).
I have served as the president of the American Bronchoesophagological Association and the New York Pediatric Society. In addition to lecturing widely on issues in pediatric otolaryngology, I also speak on topics such as the online patient-doctor relationship, Internet publishing in medicine, and the development and role of Web sites in medical practice.
