HOUSTON METHODIST HOSPITAL

Houston Methodist Hospital is the primary teaching institution for the Otolaryngology
Head and Neck Surgery residency training program. The care of inpatients and consult
patients is provided by a team of residents who report and round daily with faculty.
In general, at Houston Methodist Hospital, surgical cases are performed by residents
and faculty together, with the resident performing as much of the procedure as possible –
given the complexity of the case and the experience of the resident. There are approximately 4000 cases performed by the otolaryngology operative service line at HMH. There is a wide range of adult general otolaryngology cases, major tertiary as well as quaternary care experiences, including complicated head and neck cancer, neurotology, sinonasal/skull base tumors, laryngology and plastic and reconstructive surgery cases.
