Dr. Franklyn R. Gergits III, DO, FAOCO

"Ever wonder what sort of a person grows up wanting to be a dentist? Well, me for one. I originally wanted to be a dentist like my uncle. But after giving it considerable thought, I finally decided to go into medicine like my mother, who is a registered nurse. You see, as an ear, nose and throat doctor, I have a much wider area of responsibility than I would as a dentist, which I find more challenging and fulfilling career-wise. In a gist, I enjoy helping people and I love what I do for a living."

 
When it comes time to select an ear, nose and throat surgeon, your instincts tell you to go with highly trained and credentialed professionals.  You want someone who offers state-of-the-art care for sinus problems, allergies, ear infections, snoring, hearing problems and more. Someone like Dr. Franklyn R. Gergits.

Dr. Gergits is Board Certified in Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, and Facial Plastics.  He is also Fellowship trained in Otolaryngic Allergy.  Equally important, is that here at Northeast Ear, Nose, and Throat, compassionate care is one of the cornerstones of our practice.

Another way Dr. Gergits provides you with top-quality hearing care is by having  licensed audiologists on staff.  Sandra McGinley, MS, CCC-A can help you find the hearing aid that's right for your individual needs.

It's the exceptional level of ear, nose and throat care you want, along with the compassion you deserve.
