@danadcm69 nope not necessarily. You need an ENT that specializes in ear concerns. It’s a subspecialty of otolaryngology. That person might be an otologist but you can’t tell by the title you gave. Not all private practice ENTs will have an otologist specialist on staff but they might. I would ask specifically. Otherwise, I would try to find one in your area. Best bet is to look for an academic medicine institution in your area, like a university for example. I’m in Denver so I transferred my care to UCHealth which is affiliated with University of Colorado med school. These centers are teaching and research hospitals so they have a lot more highly specialized providers and are more up to date on the latest research and treatments. Mayo is a good example. It is also important to get multiple opinions, so if your general ENT doesn’t have answers, ask a more specialized physician.
