Ear Surgery

Being hard of hearing or feeling off-balance are two of the most common ear disorder symptoms. Sometimes these symptoms come and go; at other times, they linger. Either way, they may be an indication of a serious acute or chronic medical condition.

Serious Symptoms
Anyone who experiences a serious ear infection, deafness or ear pain should seek an evaluation right away. If surgical intervention is required, a highly skilled and experienced surgical team is available at St. Vincent Medical Center. Our Ear Surgery Service provides a wide range of surgical options for people with complicated hearing disorders.

Dedicated Operating Rooms and ICU
As a specialty surgery department, Ear Surgery and Neurosurgery share specially equipped operating suites and an intensive care unit (ICU) located inside the Doheny Wing, separated from the rest of the hospital.
