Some children may be initially concerned
about the new experience of coming to the doctor's office. Children
usually respond better if they know what to expect in any situation.
When you speak with your child, know there are "NO NEEDLES"
involved with the visit. The exam will have several parts. The younger
child might be told that they will meet new people with "magic
machines" that can see wonderful and special things in their
ears, nose and throat.
The ENT Exam Dr. Orobello, Dr. Andrews or Dr. Cressman will examine every child seen in our office. Other Pediatric hearing and speech professionals will assist them as is indicated. Patients are thoroughly informed of all examination results. When treatment plans are required, they are carefully reviewed. We encourage questions from parents at any time. If you have further questions after the office visit, please do not hesitate to call us. Nurse Educators You may have the opportunity to visit with one of our Nurse Educators. They serve as a facilitator between you and the physician. Their role is to help you understand the treatment recommended. The nurses work closely with the physician to provide you with prompt responses and follow-up. All treatment plans are carefully reviewed with the physician. Part of our visits are scheduled as a family conference. These visits are to review labs, x-ray or CT scan results with the parents. These extended visit allows for a more in-depth question and answer period with the physician.
