Try looking online: Years ago, listings used to be available only in printed form. By the early 2000's, lists had become available online everywhere. Now, some lists are only online, and no longer printed. County medical societies (or other local medical societies), universities, hospitals, insurance companies usually list doctors by name, specialty, and location. Can look under ENT (otorhinolarygology) or Neurology.
