Tasteful — literally!

Dr. Djalilian shares that at UCI ENT, they take exquisite care of your taste nerves behind the eardrums. During ear surgery, they’re extremely careful with the chorda tympani nerve, which supplies taste to the front of your tongue, to ensure it stays safe and healthy.

We’ve developed advanced techniques that allow most patients to have their cholesteatoma surgery done in one setting instead of two. Using endoscopes and lasers, we restore normal ear anatomy and reduce recurrence rates to about 5% — the lowest in the country.

Your ears deserve care at every age! Here’s how to keep them healthy:

1. Skip the Q-Tips – They push wax deeper and increase the risk of infection.
2. Guard against loud noise – Wear earplugs at concerts or when using power tools.
3. Support your hearing from the inside – If you’re 40+, take a daily multivitamin with vitamins A, C & E to help slow age-related hearing loss.
4. Keep blood pressure & blood sugar in check – These conditions can speed up hearing loss.
5. Don’t smoke – Smoking accelerates hearing damage.

Small changes today can help you hear better tomorrow.

Dr. Djalilian explains the difference between a Stapedectomy and a Stapedotomy.

Stapedectomy: removal of the stapes bone
Stapedotomy (used in 95%+ of cases today): creating a tiny hole for placing a prosthesis

Both achieve similar hearing results, but Stapedotomy is generally considered safer and less invasive.

The gift of hearing again! Dr. Djalilian shares some of the powerful moments patients experience when their hearing is restored:

✨ Hearing the hum of the air conditioner for the first time.
✨ Realizing toilets make a sound when they flush.
✨ Discovering that songs have words, not just melodies. 🎶

These little moments remind us that hearing restoration isn’t just about sound… it’s about rediscovering life itself.

Dr. Hamid Djalilian was recently featured in a Flow Space article about the connection between menopause, hormonal changes, and tinnitus.

From the article: "Tinnitus is a condition that causes you to hear sounds that don’t have an external source, and that no one else can hear. Dr. Hamid Djalilian—director of otology and neurotology and professor of otolaryngology, neurosurgery and biomedical engineering at the University of California, Irvine, as well as chief medical advisor at NeuroMed Tinnitus Clinic—estimates that up to 30% of women experience new or worsening tinnitus during menopause. Here’s everything you want to know about this intrusive, unpredictable condition, including how to make living with it more bearable."
