A member asked:
Could a non-ear specialist diagnose and treat an ear infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Primary Care: Yes. Of course. Any primary care physician and probably any physician who went through residency training can examine an ear and diagnose an infection. But, ears can look non-infected at times early on in an infection and the exam change within half of a day or so.
