Ear, Hearing, & Balance Care - Mayo Clinic in Florida

At Mayo Clinic, you’ll see neurotologists who are experts in identifying the root cause of your ear problem through a thorough evaluation, audiometric testing and advanced imaging technology.

We offer procedures to treat:

Benign tumors of the ear such as acoustic neuromas and glomus tumors
Abnormal growths in the ear (cholesteatomas and otosclerosis)
Hearing loss that could be improved with an implantable hearing device
Pulsatile tinnitus
Chronic ear infections
Meniere’s disease

Mayo Clinic neurotology physicians often work closely with our neurosurgeons to treat tumors and lesions along the skull base including acoustic neuromas, glomus tumors, cerebrospinal fluid leaks and encephaloceles. They also collaborate with our radiation oncologists for radiosurgery treatment of acoustic neuromas and other types of ear tumors.

Every service you need, in one place

Our coordinated efforts bring sub-specialized physicians, audiologists and speech and language pathologists together to treat ear and hearing disorders within a single, cohesive unit. We also work closely with highly trained neurosurgeons and radiation oncologists to meet all of your treatment needs while maintaining a focus on quality and safety. We frequently meet as a multidisciplinary tumor board to discuss cases, involving specialists in neurotology, neurology, neurosurgery, radiation oncology, and other relevant fields, to develop individualized treatment plans.

Multiple treatment options, including those that are not widely available

We offer non-surgical treatments, including radiation therapy or Gamma Knife radiosurgery, as well as multiple surgical approaches, including translabyrinthine, retrosigmoid and middle cranial fossa. We also offer a range of implantable hearing devices, depending on your preferences.
