I practice the full range of Otology & Neurotology -- ear and skull base surgery -- including surgical and medical management of chronic ear disease and perforations, ossicular chain disorders, hearing loss including cochlear implantation, facial nerve disorders, and skull base tumors including acoustic neuromas and meningiomas.

My research interests include lateral skull base tumor management, 3D temporal bone modeling, resident surgical training, cochlear implantation techniques, and temporal bone trauma. Through establishing a strong clinical practice here at UNMC, I can provide excellent care for my patients as a foundation for discovery and advancement.
