  • Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy:

    These procedures involve the surgical removal of the tonsils and/or adenoids. Dr. Carroll may recommend these surgeries in response to recurrent infections or to resolve breathing problems, particularly in children who have enlarged tonsils or adenoids that can obstruct the airway during sleep. These procedures are performed with careful precision to minimize discomfort and ensure a speedy recovery.

  • Turbinate Reduction:

    The nasal turbinates are structures in your nose that help humidify and filter the air you breathe in. However, enlarged turbinates can block airflow, leading to chronic nasal obstruction. Dr. Carroll uses several effective methods for turbinate reduction, including radiofrequency reduction, coblation, and submucosal resection, with the aim to alleviate symptoms and improve breathing.

  • Septoplasty:

    This procedure corrects a deviated septum, which can interfere with normal breathing and cause recurrent sinus infections. During a septoplasty, Dr. Carroll delicately repositions and straightens the septum, the wall that separates the two nostrils, to enhance airflow through the nose and improve overall nasal function. His surgical expertise ensures optimal results with minimal patient discomfort.
