General Practitioners

Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Sinusitis
Anything that irritates the nasal tissues can cause congestion. The list of possible causes is lengthy and includes infections (colds, influenza and acute or chronic sinusitis), allergies, structural abnormalities (deviated septum, enlarged adenoids/tonsils, nasal polyps or tumors), non-allergic rhinitis, dry air, cold temperatures, bright lights, cluster headaches, hormonal changes, medications, thyroid problems, spicy foods, tobacco smoke and stress.
Medical Weight Loss
Hyperthyroidismis the name given to a disorder that is the result of too much TH hormone. This causes the metabolism to speed up, leading to rapid or irregular heartbeat, anxiety, irritability, nervousness, fatigue, heat intolerance, excessive sweating, tremors, weight loss and increased bowel movements.
Pediatric Care
Ms. Glover lives in Martinez, Ga and has two grown children. She graduated from the University of Georgia with both undergraduate and graduate degrees in Speech/Language Pathology. She has over 35 years of experience in speech/language pathology with both pediatrics and adults. She enjoys spending time with her family, reading and walking on the beach.
Ear Infections
An eardrum perforation is defined as a hole or rupture in the eardrum. Known medically as a tympanic membrane rupture, this tear occurs in the membrane separating your outer ear from your inner ear. A perforation can lead to a middle ear infection and possible hearing loss, though in many cases it will heal on its own without medical treatment.
Sleep Disorders
There are more than 100 different types of sleep disorders that can prevent you from sleeping well. They are very common, affecting an estimated 75 percent of Americans on a regular basis.
Constipation

Ophthalmologists

Cataracts
When too little PTH is produced, calcium levels in the blood drop while phosphorous levels rise. This condition is known as hypoparathyroidismand causes weakness, anxiety, fatigue, muscle aches and cramps, headaches, muscle spasms, cataracts, depression, mood swings, memory loss and tingling sensations in the fingers, toes and lips.

Internal Medicine
The path to becoming an allergist is long â€“ it requires at least nine years of training beyond a bachelor’s degree. After earning a medical degree, physicians must complete a three-year training in either internal medicine or pediatrics. They must then pass an exam from either the American Board of Internal Medicine or the American Board of Pediatrics.
Kidney Stones
Hyperparathyroidismoccurs when too much PTH is secreted into the bloodstream. This creates an imbalance of high calcium levels and low phosphorous levels. Symptoms include osteoporosis, kidney stones, bone and joint pain, weakness, lethargy, loss of concentration, depression, loss of appetite, constipation, nausea and vomiting. The cause may be linked to a benign tumor or enlarged parathyroid gland. Surgery is the preferred treatment for hyperparathyroidism.
Endoscopy
Fiberoptic endoscopy evaluation of swallow (FEES) technology is used to visualize and track the food’s course into the esophagus.

Autism
It is extremely uncommon for someone to be born with hyperacusis. Hyperacusis can be caused by a number of diseases including Bellâ€™s palsy, Lyme disease, Meniereâ€™s disease, head injury, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) syndrome and noise induced hearing loss. Hyperacusis is also linked with neurologic conditions such as PTSD, epilepsy, depression, migraines, cerebral palsy and autism.
Epilepsy

Depression
Anxiety

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Hypothyroidism
When the opposite occurs and too little TH hormone is produced, the metabolism slows down and results in a condition known as hypothyroidism. Symptoms include depression, fatigue, sore muscles, dry skin, puffy face, swollen legs, weight gain, constipation and sensitivity to cold.
Thyroid
Head and Neck. This includes treatment for thyroid disorders, lumps in the neck and cancer of the voice box.
Thyroid Cancer
About 90 percent of head and neck cancers are caused by tobacco and alcohol use. People who have been exposed to radiation, either during medical treatments as children (common in decades past) or from nuclear radiation sources, are at considerable risk for thyroid cancer and should be screened yearly.

MRI
MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging can clearly show tumors near bones, smaller tumors and brainstem masses. It uses a magnetic field rather than x-ray radiation.
Radiology
Modified barium swallow studies (MBSS) are performed in partnership with either Doctors or Trinity Hospital’s radiology departments to detect blockage and/or restriction of food passing through the mouth and into the throat.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
To confirm a nasal fracture, your doctor will perform a physical exam. He or she will press on the sides of your nose and look inside your nostrils for signs of broken bones. Topical anesthetics may be applied before the physical exam to control the pain. An imaging test is usually unnecessary, but based on the severity of your injury a CT scan may be required if a physical exam is too painful to be performed.
Chemotherapy
If you are diagnosed with a tumor, then surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy or a combination will probably be recommended. Surgery might involve removing a portion or all of the salivary gland and any cancerous lymph nodes.
Radiation Therapy
Treatment for laryngeal cancer varies depending on the size and location of the tumor, whether it has spread to other areas of the body and the overall health of the patient. Options are likely to include radiation therapy (especially for early-stage throat cancer), surgery, chemotherapy and targeted drug therapy. Often different combinations of treatments will be pursued, such as targeted therapy in conjunction with radiation therapy.

Otolaryngology
Audiologists work with patients of all ages, treating infants, children and adults for a variety of hearing and balance problems. They work in diverse settings like hospitals, schools, clinics, universities, private practices, VA hospitals, hearing aid dispensaries and otolaryngology (ENT) offices. Audiologists are responsible for services such as...
Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic Surgeons

Rhinoplasty
Otoplasty
Otoplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure to change the shape, position, or size of the ears. It can correct defects of the ear that have been present from birth, or those resulting from injury or trauma. It is typically used to treat disproportionately large or protruding ears, and usually involves both ears to keep them symmetrical.

Skin Cancer
Secondary cancers are tumors that have spread from primary tumors in other parts of the body to the head or neck. Most often, secondary tumors of the neck originate in the lung, breast, kidney or from skin cancers (squamous cell carcinoma or melanoma).
Cyst
Eczema
When water becomes trapped in the ear, bacteria can cause inflammation and infection of the ear canal. This painful affliction is known as swimmerâ€™s ear and can occur following exposure to any moist environment. It is most common in children and teenagers, individuals with eczema and anybody with excess earwax.
Lesions
Hoarseness is the result of a problem with the vocal cords. It can be caused by a variety of different conditions including cold or sinus infections, acute laryngitis, voice misuse or abuse, benign vocal cord lesions, acid reflux, vocal hemorrhage, tobacco and alcohol use, thyroid diseases, cancer, trauma to the voice box and neurological diseases such as Parkinsonâ€™s or spasmodic dysphonia, a chronic vocal cord disorder.
Psoriasis
Any cut in the skin of the ear canal can increase the risk, as will coming into contact with water that is polluted or contains excess bacteria. Despite the name, water exposure isnâ€™t the only way of contracting swimmerâ€™s ear; it can be caused by anything that damages the protective film of the ear canal, such as cotton swabs, chemicals found in hairspray or hair dyes, etc. Skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and seborrhea may also contribute.

Allergies
Finally, allergists may choose to be board certified. This requires passing a certifying exam by the American Board of Allergy and Immunology. In addition, many of those individuals have achieved the rank of Fellow within the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI). When you see “FAAAAI” alongside “MD” you know that your allergist/immunologist has met many of the highest standards in the field.
