The Harnett Health Ear, Nose and Throat clinic is opening in Dunn on Monday.
Harnett Health joined the Cape Fear Valley Health system earlier this year.
Located at 805-A Tilghman Drive near Betsy Johnson Hospital, the new clinic will have a ribbon cutting with the Dunn Area Chamber of Commerce at 11 a.m. on Dec. 20.
The main physician on site will be Otolaryngologist Albino Chiodo, MD, FRCSC.
“Dr. Chiodo’s a welcome addition to our team,” Hess said. “His approach is focused on quality service that matches his outstanding skills.”
Also working at the clinic is Physician Assistant Lonnie Scholl.
The addition of the clinic in the area came after Harnett Health heard feedback from the community desiring a local ENT.
“One of the services our community told us they really wanted in Harnett County was an ENT clinic closer to home,” said Harnett Health President Cory Hess. “We listened, and now we’re very excited to be able to say the ENT clinic is here. It’s going to be a relief for many patients who can now get a referral to an ENT specialist that they don’t have to travel out of the county to see and who they won’t have to wait a month to get an appointment with.”
The clinic will offer a variety of services will focus on “sinus issues and surgery, neck cancer, and inner ear issues, performing procedures such as tonsillectomies, adenoid removal, nasal and sinus endoscopy, eardrum repair and reconstruction, nasal septum repair, and ear tubes for adult and pediatric patients over the age of 5, as well as other issues,” the press release said. Some of those offerings will be available on site.
While those procedures will require referrals, CFVH anticipates that “self-referrals for allergy and audiology complaints, such as allergy testing, hearing aid testing, and immunotherapy shots” will be available by next summer.
