Is an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Specialist different from an Otorhinolaryngologist?

Is a referral needed to see an ENT specialist?
Appointments with ENT specialists are typically made in advance. Walk-in consultations may also be available, but expect a wait. Referrals from other physicians are sometimes provided but aren't always necessary for an ENT consultation.
Should I consult an ENT specialist for sinusitis?
An Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist treats ear, nose, and throat disorders. Sinusitis, a chronic sinus infection, often requires ENT expertise. While a primary care physician may offer initial care, an ENT is best equipped to diagnose and treat this condition due to the interconnectedness of the sinuses with the ear and nose. ENT consultation is recommended for optimal sinusitis management.
