To make even more confusing, laryngology is the surgical specialty you would go see for a tracheal issue in the neck. (where a trach is performed) And a head and neck surgeon (oncologic surgery) is the one that performs the most laryngectomies. Fricken otolaryngologists…isnt the one name complicated enough.

- ahazred8ta 2y agoI really get piqued when nobody wants to say chiropraxy. 'Chiropractic' is the effin' adjective form! O:-) FML SMH WARH
- digging 2y agoI for one am grateful that chiropractic was named in a way that openly advertised the lack of medical training, expertise, or science involved.
- epcoa 2y agoLaryngologists are head and neck surgeons, in the US and most commonwealth at least where the general training is “otolaryngology-head and neck surgery”. There is further subspecialization in head and neck for oncologic, reconstructive, and (micro)vascular procedures usually just called “head and neck”, true, which is confusing.
