Yale Otolaryngology Residency Program
The Yale Otolaryngology Residency Program is composed of highly dedicated head and neck physicians and surgeons joined by a skilled team of rehabilitation specialists in speech, swallow, and hearing restoration. The mission is not only to provide the best medical care to patients with head and neck disease and disorders, but to train highly confident, responsible, and compassionate otolaryngologists. The Program offers an exceptionally strong training program, while encouraging independent thinking and scholarly investigation. Graduates from our program can expect to pass the American Board of Otolaryngology qualifying examination so that they may pursue their goals in fellowships, scientific research, private and/or academic practice.
Head & Neck Oncologic and Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship
The Yale Head & Neck Oncologic and Reconstructive Surgery Fellowship is currently in its 8th year. We strive to provide advanced training in head and neck surgical oncology with high volume cancer extirpation and reconstruction including minimally invasive approaches (transoral robotic/laser surgery and sialendoscopy), as well as regional and free tissue transfer. Yale Cancer Center is one of 47 NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in the nation. The head and neck cancer team includes a robust weekly multi-disciplinary tumor conference, the latest in clinical trials, and opportunities for clinical and basic science research.
