Meet Eric Abello, MD
Dr. Eric Abello is a board-certified otolaryngologist and head and neck cancer surgeon serving patients in Orange County, CA, USA. He completed fellowship training in head and neck oncology and microvascular reconstruction, and he treats benign and malignant tumors of the mouth, throat, voice box, sinuses, salivary glands, and skin. He performs transoral robotic surgery (TORS), a minimally invasive approach that reaches throat tumors through the mouth, along with open tumor removal and neck dissection. When surgery affects the face or neck, he rebuilds these areas with microvascular reconstruction to protect speech, swallowing, and breathing.
As an experienced thyroid and parathyroid surgeon, Dr. Abello also treats thyroid nodules, goiter, Graves' disease, and hyperparathyroidism. His practice includes salivary gland surgery, airway reconstruction, and care for neck masses and other benign conditions.
