ISO ENT doctor in Baltimore

September 9, 2014 7:29 AM

I am looking for an ENT doctor (Ear, Nose, and Throat doc; otolaryngologist) in Baltimore, preferably one who is a participating provider in United Healthcare (and more specifically, The Empire Plan for New York State Employees).

I am in New York, but this is for my 24-year-old son, who went to college in Baltimore and now lives and works there. He has been complaining about trouble hearing and some discomfort in one ear for a few weeks now. His inclination is to go to a walk-in clinic (like Patient First). That's one option, and certainly better than ignoring the problem, but I wish he would see an ENT doc. I'm thinking if I can give him a couple names, he might give one of them a call.

You should be able to log in to your account at My UHC and find a doctor through there.

Although I live in Maryland, and have United Healthcare, I live about 40 minutes from Baltimore -- thus I do not have any specific ENT doctor recommendations -- unless your son is willing to drive out that far.

I know some outstanding ENTs in Baltimore. Is your problem more E, N, T, or other? Feel free to pm me (two members of my ENT group trained in Baltimore).

Response by poster: Thanks robstercraw -- I have pm'ed you. The problem is E -- stuffed-up feeling, trouble hearing, left ear.
