NFO Names 2012 Otolaryngologist of the Year

Jeffrey J. Lehman, M.D., F.A.C.S., of the Ear, Nose, Throat and Plastic Surgery Associates was named 2012 Otolaryngologist of the Year from the Network of Florida Otolaryngologists (NFO), “in recognition of his outstanding dedicated service to, and promotion of, the specialty of otolaryngology/head and neck surgery, in the state of Florida for the benefit of his colleagues and patients.”

For the eighth consecutive year, the NFO has recognized an otolaryngologist that has done an outstanding job of promoting the specialty and helping others throughout the community. Nominations are taken from the entire state of Florida and voted on by the NFO.

Dr. Lehman was the first otolaryngologist residency-trained in functional-endoscopic sinus surgery and was largely responsible for bringing that technology to Orlando. He has also been very active with the Florida Hospital Skull Base Program and the development of a state-of-the-art Voice Care laboratory which is able to perform high-level videostroboscopy. He is actively performing the Botox technique for spastic dysphonia in his practice and was recently elected to the role of secondary treasurer of the seven campus Florida Hospital system as well.

Dr. Lehman was also instrumental in bringing transoral robotic surgery to the Orlando community. “He has spearheaded the program and was the motivating factor in setting credentialing standards as the chairman of the Florida Hospital Department of Otolaryngology [in 2010],” says Dr. Henry N. Ho, president and fellow partner of Dr. Lehman at The Ear, Nose, Throat and Plastic Surgery Associates. “His work has led to new innovations in approaching tumors with a minimally invasive, robotic technique.” “It has been my honor and privilege to be in practice with him. I can think of no other person more deserving of this high award,” says Dr. Ho.
