At Snowden ENT, patients receive expert, customized care for a full range of nose, sinus, and airway conditions from a trusted ENT specialist in Jacksonville. Board-certified otolaryngologist Dr. Robert Snowden, MD, FACS, along with experienced nurse practitioners Becky Hale, APRN, and Laurie Iliff, APRN, provide comprehensive evaluations to uncover the root causes of persistent nasal and sinus symptoms such as chronic nasal congestion, difficulty breathing, allergies, sinus infections, or sleep-related breathing disorders like snoring and sleep apnea.

We treat a wide array of nasal and sinus conditions including deviated septum, nasal valve collapse, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis, postnasal drip, and facial pressure or headaches caused by sinus blockage. For patients whose symptoms do not improve with medical therapy alone, Dr. Snowden offers several advanced surgical options including balloon sinuplasty and functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).

For patients with nasal obstruction that does not respond to medication, Dr. Snowden may recommend a septoplasty to correct a deviated septum or one of several turbinate reduction procedures to improve airflow. For those suffering from sleep apnea or chronic snoring, surgical solutions such as uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) or targeted nasal surgery may be considered when conservative therapies are not effective.

As a leading ENT specialist in Jacksonville, Dr. Snowden emphasizes the least invasive approach possible to achieve lasting relief and functional improvement. From initial diagnosis through advanced surgical care, our goal is to help you breathe better, sleep more soundly, and feel your best.

If you’ve been experiencing hoarseness, throat discomfort, persistent cough, vocal fatigue, or difficulty swallowing for more than two weeks, it’s important to seek expert care. Persistent throat and voice symptoms may signal conditions such as vocal cord nodules or polyps, laryngitis, throat reflux (LPR), or, in rare cases, vocal cord paralysis or early-stage cancer. Early diagnosis by an experienced ENT specialist often leads to more effective treatment and faster recovery.

As a board-certified ENT specialist in Jacksonville, Dr. Robert Snowden has years of experience treating complex voice and throat disorders. He evaluates a wide range of problems including chronic hoarseness, swallowing difficulties (dysphagia), sore throats, throat clearing, vocal strain, and speech issues caused by nerve injury or trauma. Using advanced diagnostic tools such as fiberoptic laryngoscopy, Dr. Snowden and his team are able to closely assess vocal cord function and detect even subtle abnormalities.

Whether you are a professional voice user, teacher, or simply want your voice and throat to feel normal again, Dr. Snowden and his team develop personalized treatment plans tailored to your lifestyle and vocal demands. Treatment may involve voice therapy, medication, lifestyle modifications, or minimally invasive surgical options when needed.

Don’t let a lingering throat or voice problem affect your quality of life. Schedule a consultation today with Jacksonville ENT specialist Dr. Robert Snowden and take the first step toward clear speech and comfortable swallowing.
