American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy

Welcome

The American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy (AAOA), founded in 1941, represents over 2700 Board-certified otolaryngologists and health care providers. Otolaryngology, frequently referred to as Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT), uniquely combines medical and surgical expertise to care for patients with a variety of conditions affecting the head and neck, as well as commonly related conditions. AAOA Members devote part of their practice to the diagnosis and treatment of allergic disease. The AAOA actively supports its membership through Education, Research, and Advocacy in the care of our allergic patients.
