Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Cunningham III "Hearing is one of the crucial senses which allows us to interact with the world. Disorders affecting the ability to hear can greatly impact our day to day quality of life. I treat a wide range of conditions from tumors affecting the hearing and balance nerves to chronic infections of the ear. Every patient presents with a unique problem and different needs. My approach is to listen to the patient and treat their problem with care and respect."
