Ear, Nose & Throat Doctor Joins NARH Medical Staff
08:41AM / Monday, August 03, 2009
Dr. Bethany King
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Dr. Bethany King, an ear, nose, and throat doctor, or otolaryngologist, has joined Northern Berkshire Healthcare Physicians Group and the medical staff of North Adams Regional Hospital.
King has offices in the Ambulatory Care Center on the NARH campus and is accepting new patients. Her phone number is 413-664-5484.
King earned her medical degree from the Louisiana State University School of Medicine in New Orleans, and completed an internship in general surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. She served her residency in otolaryngology at the University of Iowa in Iowa City. She is a member of the American Academy of Otolaryngology and the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
"I'm a surgeon at heart, but I like the problem-solving that goes into primary care," said King. "Ear, nose, and throat medicine is much more than surgery. I enjoy the interaction with my patients. I like to talk to them, to educate them, and to take care of them."
Trained in the medical and surgical treatment of the ears, nose, throat, and related structures of the head and neck, otolaryngologists have expertise in managing their diseases and the sinuses, larynx, mouth and throat.
