AAI vs. ENT: What’s the Difference?

Many patients wonder whether to see an AAI specialist or an ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat) specialist. Both are important—but they serve different purposes.

See an AAI Specialist when you need:

  • Allergy testing or management
  • Asthma treatment
  • Chronic cough or wheezing evaluation
  • Immunotherapy (allergy shots)
  • Management of food allergies, eczema, hives, or environmental triggers
  • Support for immune deficiencies or recurrent infections

See an ENT Specialist when dealing with:

  • Structural issues such as deviated septum
  • Chronic sinus infections that require surgery
  • Ear infections, hearing loss, or throat disorders

Many patients benefit from both specialties—but AAI is your first stop for allergy and asthma management.
