Overview
I treasure the relationships I have built with my patients. As an ENT doctor, I have the unique opportunity to work with both children and adults. I aim to be a thorough physician who listens carefully to my patients. I try to educate patients so that the medical decision is a collaborative process that the patient can feel comfortable with. I offer a broad range of medical and surgical treatments that address ear infections, hearing loss, tonsil/adenoid disease, sinus/nasal disease, thyroid disorders, and head and neck cancers. Prior to joining NCEENT, I was in private practice in Chapel Hill for 11 years. I enjoy participating in charitable medical work in third-world countries, having worked in Jamaica, Vietnam, and Haiti on several occasions. My interests outside of medicine, including spending time with my husband and two daughters, CrossFit, piano, tennis, and running.

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.
