Three ENT Red Flags to Watch for When Seeking Sinus Treatment

• Pushing allergy drops: Allergy drops can be a money-maker for ENT practices, but the fact is that the ingredients in allergy drops are not highly concentrated enough to be effective.  

• No anesthesia for in-office procedures: Sinus and nasal procedures, such as balloon sinuplasty, can be painful even with sedation. ENT surgeons should offer general anesthesia in order to ensure patient comfort and thorough treatment.

• Not spending time with patients: Doctors are busy, but it is a red flag if they do not take the time to properly diagnose and treat complex nose and sinus issues. If your ENT sends a nurse or PA in their place, you may want to find a doctor who gives you the time and care you deserve.
