AI Medical Scribes for ENT: Streamlined Notes for Ears, Nose, and Throat Care

Updated on: July 15, 2025

From seasonal sinus infections to complex laryngoscopies, ENT specialists manage a broad spectrum of conditions that require concise yet thorough notes. But keeping up with that documentation across outpatient visits, surgeries, and follow-ups can be overwhelming.

That’s why more otolaryngologists are turning to DocScrib, the AI medical scribe tailored for ENT workflows. It listens in real time and generates accurate, specialty-specific documentation—so you can focus on clinical care, not charting.

Why ENT Documentation Is Uniquely Challenging

A typical ENT consult includes:

• Chief complaints: congestion, hearing loss, sore throat, dizziness, snoring

• Physical exam: otoscopy, nasal endoscopy, laryngoscopy

• Imaging: CT sinuses, audiograms, sleep studies

• Surgical planning: FESS, septoplasty, tonsillectomy, thyroidectomy

• Post-op care: packing changes, suture checks, infection surveillance

• Medications: antibiotics, steroids, antihistamines, nasal sprays

• Multi-system interaction: ears, nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, head and neck

Every encounter requires precision and consistency—something that generic templates or voice notes can’t guarantee.
