February 17, 2025
We are excited to announce that Dr Peter Floros has been appointed to the ENT, Head and Neck department at Sydney Children’s Hospital in Randwick.
NOTHING!
Otolaryngology is simply the official name for the medical speciality ENT or Ear, Nose and Throat. The only different between an ‘Otolaryngologist’ and an ‘ENT Specialist’ is that the latter is much easier to remember and pronounce.
It can also be referred to as ‘Otorhinolaryngology’ and is actually one of the oldest medical specialties. In addition to being a medical doctor, an Otolaryngologist (ENT) is also a surgeon.
ENT Specialists diagnose and treat conditions of the interconnected ear, nose and throat systems which also includes the head and neck, so this is why they are also often referred to as Ear, Nose & Throat, Head and Neck Surgeons – which is a mouthful! But these areas of the body contain so many intricate and interconnected systems.
Some ENT specialists, may also do further training to sub-specialise in a particular area ie. Ear. Dr Floros has chosen to sub-specialise in Head and Neck, Robotic, Reconstructive and Nasal/Sinus Surgery.
Dr. Peter Floros acknowledges and pays respect to the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and work across Australia; we pay our respects to the elders, past, present and emerging. We encourage our staff and clients to join us wherever they are in Australia by being informed about whose land they are on and paying their respects.
