Primary Care
Stephanie earned her medical assistant degree in 1994 through the National Education Center of the Thompson Institute in Philadelphia. Stephanie completed her externship at the Nelson Medical Group in Philadelphia in 1994. She went on to work in a Primary Care Practice for 8 years as a medical assistant and office manager. She gained additional experience working as a medical assistant for Drexel University College of Medicine in the Department of Otolaryngology. In 2006, the department became Philadelphia Ear, Nose and Throat Associates under Robert T. Sataloff, MD, DMA. Stephanie continues to work as a medical Assistant in the department.
Ear Infections
Electrocardiogram
Physician assistants should be distinguished from “medical assistants” who have less training and are qualified to assist in medical care and patient education but generally not to diagnose and treat patients independently. Medical assistants generally are trained to perform tasks such as phlebotomy (drawing blood) and electrocardiograms. In a laryngology office, a good medical assistant can be trained to perform many other tasks, such as taking histories, assisting with strobovideolaryngoscopy, and assisting during the performance of surgical procedures in the office, participating in research, and other activities.

Radiation Therapy

Ear Surgery
Joseph Sataloff, MD, DSc, was an internationally renowned otologist, surgeon, scientist, and pioneer in occupational hearing loss. His efforts to raise the consciousness of America's leaders in government, industry, and medicine about the adverse impact and tremendous monetary and human costs associated with occupational hearing loss are recognized worldwide. Through service on numerous medical and American Standards Institute committees, and as an advisor to President Nixon, his influence resulted in the drafting of scientifically based laws that have preserved the hearing of millions of Americans. Dr. Sataloff authored more than 150 publications including eleven books. He served on numerous editorial boards and national and international committees. He was also world renown for his contributions to middle ear surgery and performed more than 20,000 ear operations. He served as Associate Editor of Archives of Otolaryngology for thirty years (a record). He made countless contributions to clinical care, research and education in otolaryngology. Herbert Kean, MD practiced with him for approximately one year before establishing an independent private practice. Dr. Sataloff's primary long-term associate was his son Robert Thayer Sataloff, MD, DMA, who joined the practice in 1980. Dr. Joseph Sataloff passed away on September 26, 2008 at the age of 89.

Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic Surgeons

Plastic Surgery
You should contact our office immediately at (215)762-5530 if you experience any severe pain, dramatically increased swelling, fever, bleeding or anything else that concerns you. Complications after facial plastic surgery are rare, but are best treated early if they occur.
Otoplasty
Scar Revision
Dermabrasion
It is important to avoid sun exposure of the surgical sites for approximately six months, particularly after dermabrasion or chemical peeling. A good sunblock (SPF 30 or higher) and a hat should be used when going outside. Also, avoid excessive exposure to heat, cold and wind as these can also damage the skin.

Cyst
Lesions
Most of the senior physicians specializing in laryngology today did not receive laryngology fellowship training. That is always the case as a new field develops. Modern laryngology evolved out of an interest in caring for professional voice users, especially singers. The first comprehensive article guiding otolaryngologists on care of professional singers was published in 19811; the first major modern American otolaryngology textbook with a chapter on care of the professional voice was published in 19862; and the first comprehensive book on care of the professional voice was published in 1991.3 So, most of the senior laryngologists practicing at the turn of the 21st century were involved in the evolution of the field before fellowships were developed. Most fellowship training programs started in the 1990s, although a few informal fellowship programs existed in the 1980s and earlier. It is reasonable to expect most voice specialists who finished residency training in the 1990s or later to have completed a fellowship in laryngology. There are approximately 2 dozen laryngology fellowship-training positions in the United States, and they are highly competitive. At present, completion of a fellowship is a reasonably good indicator of superior knowledge and clinical training in laryngology. Most laryngology fellowships include training in the diagnosis and treatment of voice disorders in adults and children, neurolaryngology (neurological problems that affect the voice and larynx), swallowing disorders, airway reconstruction, and laryngeal cancer. The training includes both medical diagnosis and treatment, and sophisticated laryngeal surgery. Typically, laryngologists care for both routine and complex problems that affect the voice. Such problems include voice dysfunction associated with something as simple as a common cold, especially when it affects the voice of a professional singer or actor. However, laryngologists also are called on to diagnose and treat structural lesions such as nodules or polyps, prolonged infections of the vocal folds, cancer, traumatic injury from fracture or internal trauma (intubation injuries from anesthesia, vocal fold injuries from previous surgery), neurological disorders, and other voice problems. The laryngologist is responsible for establishing a medical diagnosis and implementing or coordinating treatment for the patient. The laryngologist may prescribe medication, inject botulinum toxin, perform delicate microsurgery on the vocal folds, or operate through the neck on the laryngeal skeleton. He or she is also usually responsible for initiating evaluation by other members of the voice team and for generating referrals to other specialists as needed.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Laryngologists may practice in university medical centers or private offices, and in major cities in the United States, they are usually affiliated with a voice team including at least a speech-language pathologist, a singing voice specialist, and sometimes an acting-voice specialist. Laryngologists also should have, or have access to, a clinical voice laboratory with equipment to analyze the voice objectively and a stroboscope to visualize the vocal folds in slow motion. They also should be familiar with physicians in other specialties who have an understanding of and interest in arts-medicine. Even for patients with a voice disorder who are not singers and actors, such knowledge and sensitivity are important. Just as nonathletes benefit from the orthopedic expertise of a sports-medicine specialist, voice patients receive more expert care from physicians trained to treat singers, the “Olympic” athletes of the voice world.
Physical Therapy
Speech-language pathologists are responsible for voice therapy and rehabilitation, which is analogous to physical therapy. The speech-language pathologist analyzes voice use and teaches proper voice support, relaxation, and voice placement to optimize use of the voice during speaking. A variety of techniques are utilized to accomplish this goal. Speech-language pathologists do not ordinarily work with the singing voice, although they are involved in the treatment of speaking voices of singers.

Allergies
Most otolaryngologists’ clinical practices include many or all components of the specialty, such as otology (disorders of the ear and related structures), laryngology (disorders of the voice and upper airway structures such as the throat and trachea), head and neck cancer, head and neck neoplasms (masses including benign or malignant lesions), facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, allergy and immunology, bronchoesophagology (lower airway and swallowing disorders), rhinology (nose, sinus, taste, and smell disorders), and pediatric otolaryngology (ear, nose, and throat disorders of children). Most otolaryngologists and laryngologists care for patients of all ages from early childhood through advanced years. Some otolaryngologists subspecialize, caring for disorders in just one or two areas of otolaryngology. This subspecialization can either be a keen interest in a specific area while still providing a broad range of ear, nose, and throat care, or the focused practice of only one or two of the subcomponents of otolaryngology. Laryngology is one such subspecialty.
