Dr. Kathy Yu-Syken, MD, FACS
Ear-Nose and Throat Doctor (ENT)
17742 Beach Blvd Ste 345 Huntington Beach CA, 92647About
Here at OCEANN ENT (Orange County Ear, Allergy, Nose, and Neck) we offer comprehensive services for Ear, Nose, and Throat conditions with a Sub-Specialty Focus in Rhinologic conditions, especially those requiring extensive expertise in Sinus Procedures and Surgeries. Patients can count on personalized and compassionate care whether they have a sinus infection, ongoing allergies, or Eustachian tube dysfunction. Evaluation begins at the initial phone call where our highly trained staff can assess patients’ current situation and schedule them with the most effective provider to best manage their presenting symptoms.
The Sinus Surgeon and CEO/Founder of OCEANN ENT, Dr. Kathy Yu-Syken, has personally trained her PAs (John Vincent Enverga, PA-C and Stephanie Cho, PA-C), who will be evaluating, diagnosing, and treating patients starting at their initial visit in order to most efficiently coordinate patient care. Although Dr. Yu-Syken will mostly be performing In-Office Sinus and Eustachian Tube Procedures due to the high volume of demand for her surgical proficiency, she will also still be available for more complex cases for consult, and to directly assess cases which may benefit from Sinus Procedures.
Although Dr. Yu-Syken always begins with the most conservative treatment that's best for each patient's needs, she specializes in Minimally Invasive and CT-guided Sinus Procedures such as In-Office Balloon Sinuplasty that are effective, don't need an incision, and produce long-lasting relief from conditions such as chronic sinusitis.
