Consultation avec un oto-rhino-laryngologiste à Consultorio del Dr. Ramsés Caraballo Polanco (Otolaryngology)

Consultorio del Dr. Ramsés Caraballo Polanco is a private ear, nose, and throat (ENT) clinic. It is located in the La Esperilla district of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Dr. Ramsés Caraballo Polanco leads the practice as the sole specialist. He is an otolaryngologist, otologist, and head and neck surgeon.

Otolaryngology Specialization and Patient Approach

The clinic follows a communication-first model for all evaluations. This three-step process prioritizes listening to the patient before performing exams. The doctor then explains all treatment options clearly. This helps patients make informed decisions.

The clinic treats a variety of conditions across the head and neck region:

• Ear and Hearing: Care for hearing loss (hypoacusis), tinnitus, and vertigo.
• Cochlear Implants: Evaluation, surgery, and follow-up for hearing restoration.
• Nose and Breathing: Treatment for nasal obstruction, rhinitis, and sinusitis.
• Throat and Voice: Management of larynx disorders, swallowing issues, and voice changes.
• Sleep Apnea: Respiratory evaluations for snoring and sleep-disordered breathing.

Follow-up care is part of every treatment pathway. This support continues from the first consultation through post-surgical recovery.

Key Procedures and Surgical Interventions

The clinic provides surgical care when evaluations indicate a need for intervention. Otologic surgery addresses various ear diseases and hearing impairments. Head and neck conditions are managed through targeted surgical treatments.

Nasal and respiratory procedures include:

• Balloon sinuplasty – clears blocked sinuses without removing tissue.
• Endoscopic Sinus Surgery – uses small cameras to treat nose and paranasal sinus issues.
• Sleep Apnea Surgery – treats chronic snoring and airway obstruction.

Dr. Caraballo Polanco has received national and international medical training. He applies this experience to create a personalized treatment plan for every case. Diagnostic technology supports clinical findings and confirms the best surgical approach.

Diagnostic Capabilities

The clinic has tools for hearing and airway assessment. These diagnostics allow precise mapping of ENT disorders before treatment planning begins. Hearing check-ups are available for patients of all ages with auditory decline.

Diagnostic services include:

• Otoscopy and Nasal Endoscopy
• Laryngoscopy to view the throat and vocal cords
• Audiometry and Brainstem Evoked Response Audiometry (BERA)

These tests identify the type and severity of hearing loss. They are also necessary for cochlear implant evaluation. The clinic uses results to adapt treatment to each patient's needs.

Services for International Patients

The clinic offers structured guidance for patients traveling from abroad. Staff coordinate scheduling so evaluations fit limited travel timelines. A dedicated workflow exists for requesting consultations and submitting clinical information remotely.

International patients receive help with insurance coordination for evaluations and surgeries. The clinic maintains a list of accepted insurance providers to assist with coverage verification. Follow-up is available for international cochlear implant patients to monitor long-term recovery.
