Professional History
Dr. Roger Nuss is an Associate in Otolaryngology and the Director of the Pediatric Voice and Velopharyngeal Dysfunction Program at Boston Children’s Hospital. He is also an Assistant Professor of Otology and Laryngology at Harvard Medical School. He has served as an expert in an ASHA web forum on Pediatric Voice Disorders, and has published numerous papers related to vocal fold nodules and voice disorders.
Approach to Care
I've been a part of the Otolaryngology department at Boston Children's Hospital for over 20 years. I work in several multi-disciplinary teams, caring for children with complex disorders involving the larynx and airway. We feel that a coordinated team approach is most helpful for patients and families, and helps achieve the best possible outcomes.
