General Information

The Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head- and Neck Surgery (ENT) is part of the University of Mainz Medical School´s Hospital. It provides excellent conditions for both patient care and research.
Surgical procedures (approx. 6000 per year) are performed in five operating rooms that are equipped with the most recent technology of the field, e.g. laser, microscopic and computer assisted surgery.

The rooms are mostly one- or two-bed-rooms with televisions. With the exception of the intensive care unit every room includes a separate bathroom. Radio and telephone connections are standard, in addition facsimile and internet connections are available at request at every bedside.
