Mervi Starck

I am an ear, nose and throat specialist with over 20 years of experience. I provide treatment for all kinds of diseases relating to my specialist field.

The most common diseases I treat include children’s ear infections, which was the topic of my doctoral dissertation, and the recurrent respiratory tract infections of adults. For respiratory tract infections such as sinusitis, I provide both conservative and surgical treatment. My surgical services include ear tube insertion, nasal and sinus surgery as well as adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy. I am also familiar with treating sleep problems such as snoring and sleep apnea.

My area of special expertise and interest is the diagnostics and treatment of anatomical problems with eating and speaking, which occasionally involves tongue and lip frenulum surgery. I treat these patients in multi-professional collaboration with speech therapists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and IBCLC breastfeeding instructors.

I am happy to treat patients of all ages, but children and their treatment are especially close to my heart.

I continuously update my skills to provide patients with the latest treatments based on medical evidence.
