Doximity’s comprehensive physician database includes all physicians practicing in the U.S. as distinguished by their National Provider Identifier numbers.

“It’s a tremendous honor to be ranked among the top residency programs in otolaryngology, especially considering that we are a midsize program accepting three residents each year,” says rhinologist William C. Yao, MD, associate professor, director of the Otolaryngology Residency Program, and co-director of the Texas Sinus Institute Rhinology and Skull Base Fellowship in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. “Our highly specialized faculty gives residents a great opportunity to work in otolaryngology subspecialties at a high-volume academic medical center serving a diverse patient population. As a group, we provide excellent clinical and research support.”

Medical students can use Doximity’s Residency Navigator, which increases transparency in the residency match process, to make informed decisions. The navigator comprises three major parts: current resident and recent alumni satisfaction data from satisfaction surveys; reputation data from nomination survey responses by board-certified physicians in that specialty; and objective data compiled from public sources and Doximity’s database, which includes all U.S. physicians, regardless of their Doximity membership status.
