Ear, Nose & Throat

In partnership with Midwest Ear, Nose and Throat, Brookings Health System’s head, neck and throat surgeons can diagnose and treat patients with problems related to the head and neck.

A person’s ears, nose and throat works together as an intimate trio. A problem in one of these areas can take a toll on all of them. Painful or uncomfortable conditions of the ear, nose and throat can be corrected.

Surgical procedures that can be performed at Brookings Health System include:

Tonsillectomy to remove tonsils
Adenoidectomy to remove adenoids
PE tube insertion in the ear canal
Image-guided sinus surgery, including balloon sinuplasty
Septoplasty to straighten the nasal septum between the two nasal cavities
