OTO/Bronch


Welcome to the OTO/Pulmonary/ENT service line.  Our team covers Otolaryngology, Bronchoscopy, Pulmonary intervention, ENT, Head and neck and plastics.  We have 6 rooms on most days and over 18 surgeons throughout all the services.  We do robotics, microscopic cases, major complex flap cases for reconstruction from head and neck cancers, cochlear implants, BAHA ear procedures, voice box regeneration and repairs, acoustic neuromas combined with neuro surgeons, plastic free flap cases and many other procedures. 

Patients come from all over the country to seek our doctor’s knowledge and experience in the most complex procedures.  They also do two mission trips a year to other countries.  Our mission is to make a difference and our team takes pride in making our patients our priority for successful outcomes.

We encourage professional growth.

If your career goal is to expand your nursing experience and skills outside of the traditional bedside care model, VUMC's adult operating room offers numerous opportunities.  You can expand your skillset in the role of the circulating nurse, scrub cases, be trained to first assist, or participate in team leadership.  Click the VUMC Nurse Residency Perioperative Track link on the sidebar if you are interested!
