What Is an Otolaryngologist?
An otolaryngologist is also called an ENT doctor. ENT stands for ears, nose, and throat, meaning these doctors specialize in treating conditions of the head and neck. In fact, the word otolaryngology is derived from otorhinolaryngology, a combination of the Greek words for ear (otos), nose (rhis), and throat (larynx).
Medical Conditions Normally Treated by Otolaryngologists

- Sinus infections, swollen sinus cavities, or nose-related breathing issues
- Throat problems like swallowing difficulties or tonsillitis
- Obstructive sleep apnea caused by blocked upper airways
- Hearing loss or ear infections

Dr. Brownrigg is absolutely amazing. I had a deviated septum and nasal valve collapse. I went in for an appt and then booked a surgery for a few months later. He came to talk to me before and after the surgery and made sure I was comfortable and calm. The surgery was a success! I can now breath much clearer than before and my nose looks beautiful!

Dr Brownrigg repaired my nose twice. I had broken it in 2 separate incidents. I was worried that my breathing would be impaired forever . After each break Dr Brownrigg restored my appearance and breathing . Aesthetically my nose was perfect after each procedure. Thank you Dr Brownrigg for the great service and results .

Dr. Brownrigg is a facial plastic surgeon who calls on his vast ENT training to provide Ottawa patients with state-of-the-art treatment to restore form and function to the ears, nose, neck, and head.

Rhinoplasty Can Combine Plastic Surgery and Otolaryngology
Procedures Performed by Dr. Brownrigg
Rhinoplasty
Commonly called a nose job, Dr. Brownrigg can perform rhinoplasty to alter the cosmetic appearance of your nose and to improve its internal structure. For example, a deviated septum, caused by one nasal passage being smaller than the other, can be corrected with rhinoplasty. This can improve breathing and sleeping by eliminating airway obstructions inside your sinus areas.
Neck Surgery
Dr. Brownrigg can perform cosmetic procedures such as neck liposuction to give your neck a slimmer, more toned appearance.
Facelifts/Facial Implants
Dr. Brownrigg is one of the most respected plastic surgeons in Canada when it comes to facelifts and facial implants. His otolaryngology training gives him a unique perspective of facial anatomy when it comes to tightening skin and muscles and altering the contours of the chin and cheekbones.
BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections
Cosmetic injections to fight the effects of aging might not seem like an ENT treatment. However, Dr. Brownrigg's extensive otolaryngology training gives him a unique insight into facial anatomy that other plastic surgeons may not have. He knows exactly where BOTOX Cosmetic injections should be placed to relax the muscles that cause fine lines, wrinkles, and creases to form.
Blepharoplasty
When you have blurry vision, you see an eye doctor. When you have obstructed vision due to drooping or puffy eyelids, you should consult Dr. Brownrigg about blepharoplasty. As a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, he can correct puffy or sagging eyelids with surgery so your field of vision remains clear. And as a board-certified otolaryngologist, his knowledge of facial anatomy can ensure the safest, most effective results.
