Ear, Nose, Throat & Allergy Care

   Basem Jassin, MD, FACS

How your care with Dr. Jassin starts.
Many symptoms of ear, nose and throat problems are the result of other conditions. Because of this,
Dr. Jassin will conduct one of the most comprehensive examinations you will ever have. He will
take the time to thoroughly explain your condition and any recommended treatment in plain, easyto-
understand language. Plus, Dr. Jassin always explores nonsurgical solutions first in his effort to
resolve your condition.

Clearing up your sinus problems.
If you’re experiencing nasal dripping, sinus headaches, chronic coughing or difficulty breathing
through your nose, Dr. Jassin can help. His leading-edge care can ensure an accurate diagnosis
of your sinus difficulties for fast relief, so you can breathe easy. Dr. Jassin offers the latest nonsurgical approaches for sinus problems.

Welcome relief from nasal obstruction.
If you have trouble breathing through your nose in the absence of a cold or an allergy or have suffered
a broken nose in the past, you might have a deviated septum. And if you have a deviated septum,
he can correct it with an outpatient procedure called septoplasty. You’ll be back to your normal
activities in days.

Wipe out your allergy troubles.
Thanks to Dr. Jassin, the days of sneezing, wheezing, coughing and itching because of allergies can
finally come to an end. He can identify the cause of your allergies using the most advanced testing
methods available, including the radioallergosorbent test (RAST) blood test and Skin Prick Testing.

Effective treatment for ear pain and ear infection.
Ear pain or discomfort, excess earwax, pus seeping from your ear, nausea, dizziness and noise in your
ear could all be symptoms of even more serious problems. Dr. Jassin will make sure that you get
a thorough examination and effective treatment for these and many other ear disorders. He treats
problems as simple as wax buildup and as complex as chronic ear disease and disorders.

Solutions for dizziness and balance disorders.
If you feel off-balance, dizzy, lightheaded or woozy or have a sensation of spinning or floating, don’t
assume it’s nothing serious. Balance disorders can lead to falls, which account for up to 80 percent
of all hospital admissions in elderly people. Falls are a significant reason for fractures and loss of
independence. Dr. Jassin will assess your balance problem and create a treatment plan based on your
individual needs, which may may include physical therapy or vestibular rehabilitation.

Put your snoring problem to rest.
Loud snoring, gasping for air and pauses in breathing while sleeping might be the result of obstructive
sleep apnea (OSA). This potentially life-threatening condition puts you at risk for high blood pressure,
stroke, irregular heartbeat and heart attack. If you or a loved one is experiencing the symptoms of
OSA, Dr. Jassin will refer you to a sleep medicine specialist for a sleep study. If your test results indicate
that you suffer from sleep apnea, you will be prescribed a continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) device. For patients who suffer from severe obstructive sleep apnea, or whose CPAP treatment has failed, Dr. Jassin offers an advanced surgical procedure that greatly improves the airflow
between the back of the nose and the back of the throat.

Addressing your swallowing problems.
If you suffer from difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, heartburn or are constantly having to clear your
throat because you feel as if something is stuck in it, look to Dr. Jassin. He can accurately diagnose
these problems with a simple in-office exam that takes less than 10 minutes to perform. Dr. Jassin will
then make treatment recommendations designed to provide you with welcome relief.

Advanced diagnosis of hearing problems.
Dr. Jassin will make sure you or your child gets a thorough hearing examination and gentle treatment
for a variety of ear problems as simple as wax buildup and as complex as chronic ear disease
or ringing in the ear, also known as tinnitus. Each of these in-office treatment methods is
simple, quick and painless. If Dr. Jassin determines that you will benefit from hearing instruments,
he will refer you to an audiologist of yor choice.

Pediatric care you can trust.
Children are especially prone to ear, nose and throat problems. Whether your child suffers
from tonsillitis, allergies, asthma or recurrent ear infections and earaches, Dr. Jassin is sensitive
to the needs of kids and the concerns of parents. He and his staff treat children with the
