| Description |
Determining the best and most comprehensive methods to treat people with otologic disorders is the focus of my efforts, both clinically and scientifically.
Recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms related to disfunction of the ear, brain stem and skull base continue to provide exciting new opportunities for care to patients. As the director of The Listen for Life Center at Virginia Mason, I am committed to improving the quality of life for patients with hearing loss and their families living in the Pacific Northwest.
