Residency Program
Overview
The domain of otorhinolaryngology-head and neck surgery encompasses the subspecialties of bronchoesophagology, facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, general ENT, head and neck oncology, laryngology, maxillofacial trauma, otology and neuro-otology, pediatric ENT, and rhinology as well as audiology and speech pathology.

Resident responsibility increases in a graduated fashion commensurate with clinical skills and acumen throughout the training program.
The program has up to 3 residents per year. The first year of residency must be performed at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston. The total duration of training is 5 years, including the internship year.
