Dr. Benjamin Oberman
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.

Clinical Research

Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Duke Clinic Voice Center - Clinic 1F
Voice is central to human communication, social interaction, identity, and may be critical for professional success. Many professionals depend on having a good voice, including teachers, singers, clergy, attorneys, and call center operators. Swallowing and breathing are also vital life functions and problems in either area can lead to significant reduction in quality of life. I am grateful to have the opportunity to help people every day who are experiencing voice, breathing or swallowing problems. My goal is to collaborate with patients in a team-based, interdisciplinary approach to restore patients' voices and ability to communicate and perform, swallow, and breathe. I work with patients to personalize treatment decisions to fit their individual needs. This may include medical treatments and/or surgical interventions, as well as voice and swallowing therapy in collaboration with my speech-language pathology and singing voice specialist colleagues.
