PCOM ENT History
PCOM ENT History
The Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS) Residency program started over 35 years ago and, since initiation, has graduated over 100 otolaryngologists who have gone on to pursue successful private practices and fellowships across the country, most of whom are still practicing today.
Historically speaking, Philadelphia is no stranger to otolaryngology. Chevalier Jackson, one of the most prominent figures in laryngology, received his medical education here. After training, he opened a bronchoscope clinic in the city and trained students in laryngeal surgery. He and many other giants in the ENT community helped create the strong tradition of medical and surgical excellence that still prevails in the city today.
