Transcript

My name is Dr. Emre Vural, and I’m a professor of otolaryngology, which is ear, nose, and throat surgery. I specialize mostly in head and neck cancer, and I’m also board certified in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. I treat benign and malignant tumors of the mouth, tongue, lips, throat, voice box, thyroid glands, and salivary glands.

UAMS is unique in the treatment of head and neck cancer patients because we provide every specialty a head and neck cancer patient needs: top notch surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology, radiology, and speech and language pathology. The care of a head and neck cancer patient is complex, and it requires multidisciplinary care. We offer pretty much everything a head and neck cancer patient needs here at UAMS.
