Dr. Robbins heads to Roanoke, VA

We are both excited and sad to announce that after 23 years of practice at ENT Associates, Dr. Robbins has taken an Otologist position down in Roanoke, VA at the Carilion Clinic.

Dr. Robbins was offered an incredible opportunity to help develop the otology program at the Clinic and made the transition down south at the end of 2015. Carilion Clinic is the home of Virginia Tech Medical School and has been growing in leaps and bounds over the last decade.

While he will be greatly missed, his new professional home and patients are very lucky to have him!
