01Our Approach to Ear and Hearing Care
How we evaluate your concerns and plan your care.Explore this topicClose topic
The ear is a complex organ responsible not only for hearing but also for balance and spatial orientation. When ear problems develop, they can significantly impact your quality of life, affecting communication, concentration, and even your ability to perform everyday activities.
Our ENT specialists approach ear and hearing conditions with both precision and compassion. As a board-certified otolaryngologist recognized as a Top Doctor by NY Top Docs for 25 consecutive years, Dr. Cohen supports a care model that utilizes state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to accurately identify the root cause of symptoms. This thorough approach allows for targeted treatments that address not just the symptoms but the underlying condition.
02Common Ear and Hearing Concerns

Many factors can contribute to ear and hearing issues, including infection, injury, age-related changes, heredity, earwax impaction, and environmental exposures. Symptoms like ear pain, hearing loss, ringing in the ears, dizziness, or drainage should never be ignored, as they may indicate conditions requiring medical attention.
Our specialists treat both acute and chronic ear conditions in patients of all ages. For children particularly prone to ear infections, we offer specialized care that emphasizes minimizing antibiotic exposure while effectively resolving infections and preventing recurrence.

From pediatric patients to seniors, our practice provides specialized ear care in a comfortable, welcoming environment. Our ENT specialists understand that ear examinations can be stressful, especially for children, which is why our team emphasizes clear communication and gentle treatment approaches.
For children with recurrent ear infections, we may recommend minimally invasive procedures to drain fluid-filled or frequently infected ears rather than continued antibiotic exposure. Parents are often amazed at how simple interventions can provide immediate and lasting benefits for their children’s hearing health and overall well-being.
