The SINUS AND SNORING CENTERS OF TEXAS was founded by Dr. Umang Khetarpal with a vision of excellence in providing advanced treatment for sinonasal, allergy, snoring, and sleep apnea problems. About 30-37 million Americans suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis, up to 40-50% of the population snores, up to 20% or so of the population may suffer from Obstructive sleep apnea and 10-30% of the population

worldwide suffers from allergic rhinitis. These are significant numbers and this disease impairs the QUALITY OF LIFE significantly by causing headaches, stuffy nose, sinus pressure, reduced smell, nasal discharge, sniffling, sneezing, itchy eyes, reduced s*x life, absence from work, daytime sleepiness, embarrassment, and chronic fatigue. Dr. Khetarpal did his residency training in Syracuse, New York, and both clinical and research fellowships at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School in Boston. He was previously involved in cutting-edge genetics research and is now involved in research in Chronic sinusitis, Allergic Rhinitis, and Sleep Apnea. Dr. Khetarpal is doubly Board Certified in Otolaryngology-Head, Neck and Facial Plastic Surgery, and in Sleep Medicine. Dr. Khetarpal is passionate about the role of Balloon Sinuplasty in improving Sinus problems. In addition to his long-held passion for Sinus, Allergy, and Sleep Apnea treatment, he has a tremendous interest in Rhinoplasty, also known as “ nose job” or surgical correction of nasal deformity. He has authored many papers in the past and is currently writing a paper on his results with in-office comprehensive Balloon Sinuplasty and sinus surgery. He is perhaps one of few surgeons in the country performing comprehensive balloon sinuplasty and near-total ethmoidectomy in the office. He is also one of few facilities in private practice that has WIRB approval for conducting research in chronic sinusitis and balloon sinuplasty.

Friday stories from the office:

A patient presented to our office recently with severe snoring and gasping at night. He felt tired throughout the day and had a high probability of falling asleep while on the road, after eating a meal, or just sitting still. He had been prescribed a CPAP, but he didn't tolerate it well. After a home sleep study was performed, Dr. Khetarpal was able to identify that the patient had severe obstructive sleep apnea that was preventing him from getting sufficient oxygen while he slept. He then performed a CT of the sinus and found the causes of the obstruction. Our patient is set to have surgery to improve airflow and also address the chronic sinusitis that has contributed to facial pain, pressure, and headaches.

We are excited to help our patients achieve a better quality of life! Read the success stories our patients have experienced after surgery with Dr. Khetarpal.

Have you ever heard a crackle, whistle, or ringing in your ears? It could be tinnitus. Several factors can cause tinnitus, and sometimes the sound you hear can also come with pressure, pain, muffled hearing, and even vertigo. Other symptoms such as these can be indicators of Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. If you suspect that you or someone you know has tinnitus or Eustachian Tube Dysfunction, call to make an appointment with Dr. Khetarpal.

Dr. Khetarpal is a comprehensive and caring doctor who can help determine if your symptoms come from allergies, sinus, or a narrowed eustachian tube, among other causes.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea causes your airways to close as you sleep, blocking the oxygen your body needs to recuperate, sleep well, and be replenished. Diagnosing OSA starts with a simple visit. Dr. Khetarpal is accepting new patients at his office in The Woodlands and The Heights.

If you have chronic sinusitis which consists of repeated sinus infections, sinus headaches, facial pain & pressure, or a combination of these symptoms, and you are looking to get sinus surgery as a treatment option, this post is for you.

We oftentimes get asked why we can't move straight to surgery after the first visit. Please understand that health insurance plans require documentation that medical necessity exists before surgery is approved. This involves a CT scan of the sinus showing sinus disease is present after maximum medical therapy is attempted. Maximum medical therapy means that nasal rinses, nasal steroid sprays, antibiotics, and/or nasal antihistamines were used for a certain length of time. Some insurance plans also require allergy testing. Once maximum medical therapy has been exhausted, a CT scan of the sinus can substantiate the necessity for sinus surgery. Some health plans even require 2 (two) CT scans of the sinuses, one to establish a baseline and one after maximum medical therapy has been tried to show a necessity for surgery.

Our goal is to get patients to surgery as quickly as possible when medical necessity is present, and this may result in multiple visits prior to your surgery itself.

Stuffy nose and congestion can be caused by several factors and can even worsen with time and with age. Did you know that a quick 20-minute in-office procedure called Turbinate Reduction can help improve your breathing, increase airflow, and reduce snoring?

WHAT ARE NASAL TURBINATES?

The turbinates are bony structures located on the side walls of the nose. They are covered in a mucosal lining designed to warm, humidify, and filter the air before going to the lungs. The bony shelves can become enlarged causing nasal congestion, difficulty breathing through the nose, and snoring.

An office visit and nasal endoscopy can help determine if the source of the congestion comes from inflamed turbinates or other factors.
