Referring Physicians,
PLEASE PROVIDE A CT SINUS SCAN FOLLOWING ADEQUATE MEDICAL THERAPY

PLEASE NOTE THAT FACIAL PAIN/ HEADACHES IN THE ABSENCE OF SINONASAL SYMPTOMS IS NOT INDICATIVE OF CHRONIC RHINOSINUSITIS.
PLAIN SINUS X-RAYS SHOULD NOT BE ORDERED FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF NASAL AND SINUS DISEASE AS THEY PROVIDE VERY LIMITED ANATOMIC DETAIL AND ARE QUITE INACCURATE FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF MUCOSAL CHANGES.
ONCE RECEIVED, PATIENT WILL BE REVIEWED AND TRIAGED OR REDIRECTED ACCORDINGLY.
THIS OFFICE DOES NOT ACCEPT REFERRALS FOR RHINOPLASTY SURGERY
PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY CONCERN OF HEADACHES/ FACIAL PAIN SHOULD HAVE NEUROLOGY/ TMJ ASSESSMENTS.
