What is the Difference Between a Regular Doctor and an ENT?
Jan 26, 2018
Choosing a doctor can be a tough task, especially in a city as large as Los Angeles. During their medical training, doctors are educated in a wide range of specialties, and depending on your needs, it might be necessary to consult a specialist as opposed to a regular doctor.
For issues such as chronic allergies, sinus problems, snoring, a deviated septum, or other problems related to the ear, nose and throat, it is often best to schedule an evaluation from an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist who has an exceptional set of professional skills to efficiently treat your condition.
While a general practitioner is medically trained, an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor, or ENT, specializes in sinus, ear, nose, and throat conditions. This means that an ENT has not only received general medical training, but has also received a specialized education focused on ear, nose, and throat medicine.
As an ENT, Dr. Zadeh has years of education and experience treating patients in this medical specialty, and you can be assured he is well-equipped to diagnose and treat any ear, nose, or throat conditions correctly.
If you are having symptoms related to problems with your sinuses or nasal passages, consider seeing an ENT to obtain a more thorough evaluation of your condition, and for professional treatment. An ENT has a deep understanding through education and experience in their field of practice, and the ability to correctly diagnose and treat these conditions.
An ENT spends years in residency receiving hands-on medical training before receiving board certification. This extensive education and experience aids in the ability to diagnose, and establish a treatment plan for even the most difficult diseases and conditions affecting the nasal passages.
A general practitioner may have attempted to treat your condition with basic medical care, but an ENT, with years of training directly related to the exact procedures to resolve a range of diseases, conditions, and disorders, can accurately diagnose the underlying cause of your condition, and establish an effective treatment plan.
