Innovative ENT services
At LVHN, we offer several innovative therapies to treat common and complex conditions, such as seasonal allergies and cancer.
Allergy testing and treatment
Our environmental allergy program diagnoses seasonal allergies so you can get relief from chronic sinus symptoms. We use a combination of skin prick and intradermal testing – to assess your reaction to trees, grasses, weeds, animal dander, dust and molds common in eastern Pennsylvania. With immunotherapy (allergy shots or drops), many patients experience significant symptom relief.
Advanced hearing loss options
We work with you to diagnose the problem behind your hearing loss, so we can help you hear better. For some people, surgery can correct hearing loss. Other times, medical devices such as hearing aids and rehabilitation therapies help improve hearing.
Flexible fiberoptic videostroboscopy
Flexible fiberoptic videostroboscopy is an advanced imaging technology used to evaluate the causes of voice and airway problems. It provides ENT specialists with an unparalleled view of your larynx and surrounding structures so they can accurately diagnose the cause of your symptoms. The test can detect abnormalities too small for other imaging tests to find and, by utilizing light filters, identify lesions not visible to the naked eye.
