<p><strong>Highly Commended by the BMA Medical Book Awards for Surgical Specialties!</strong></p><p>Ear, nose, and throat diseases present and progress very differently in children than in adults, needing different diagnostic and treatment strategies. Training in the subspecialty of pediatric otolaryngology is often part of a general ENT program and not a program in itself. As such, the general otolaryngologist may be insufficiently prepared to handle certain pediatric cases.</p><p>R. W.
