Overview

I am a surgeon who specializes in treating both children and adults of all ages for conditions affecting the ears, nose and sinuses, and neck and throat. I am a general Otolaryngologist who treats a wide variety of medical and surgical diseases. This includes everything from ear infections to sinus infections and some head and neck cancers. I do my best to be accessible to my patients, call them personally with results and updates, and have same-day clinic availability. My goal is to have a team approach with high quality and individualized care while staying at the forefront of current research and treatment plans. Patients may work with our audiologists or speech-language pathologists to help treat their conditions as well. When I’m not at work, I’m usually out with my Great Dane or trying a new food scene in Durham and Chapel Hill.

Dr. Oberman is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of DFNB1. His top areas of expertise are Infant Hearing Loss, Salivary Duct Stones, Angiomyoma, DFNB1, and Parathyroidectomy.

His clinical research consists of co-authoring 11 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.

Hearing and balance are among the most fundamental ways people interact with the world. As an ENT doctor, otologist, and neurotologist, I am very fortunate to work in a profession that allows me to help patients having problems with these most basic functions. Every patient I work with presents a unique and challenging problem that needs a creative solution. Whether is it surgery to remove a complex tumor at the base of the skull, placing a cochlear implant to restore hearing to the deaf, or diagnosing a complex balance problem, I am motivated to work with my patients to come up with a custom solution to their personal problem. I measure my success by my patients’ improvement and satisfaction. Dr. Kaylie is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of DFNB1. His top areas of expertise are Acoustic Neuroma, Schwannoma, Hearing Loss, Mastoidectomy, and Myringotomy.
