Otolaryngology--Head and Neck Surgery is a balanced four-year program with emphasis on training residents in all areas of otolaryngologic practice. The SUMC, California Ear Institute at Stanford, PAVAHCS, Kaiser Santa Clara and SCVMC are used for training. Each hospital has an active, full-time clinical otolaryngology teaching staff. Postdoctoral fellowships in head and neck surgery (two years), facial plastics (one year), sinus surgery (one year), and sleep surgery (one year) offer further training for those individuals interested in academic careers. The division also houses the following basic research laboratories: molecular biology, neural regeneration, and wound healing-biomaterials. Coordinator: Messner.
