OtorrinoDF Prime (PRIME - OtorrinoDF)

OtorrinoDF Prime is a multi-site medical group in Brasília, Brazil, established in 2011. The clinic operates four branches across the Federal District. These include units in Asa Sul, Asa Norte, and Taguatinga. It serves as a specialized center for ear, nose, and throat (ENT) care while also offering facial aesthetic surgery.

Patient Outcomes and Accreditations

The clinic has served more than 1,000 patients and maintains a 4.9/5 rating on Google. It holds TEMOS accreditation, confirming compliance with international quality standards. The medical team includes 13 doctors, all board-certified specialists with registered RQE credentials in Brazil.

Otorhinolaryngology and Pediatric Care

The ENT department treats adults, children, and seniors. Specialists manage chronic issues like tinnitus, dizziness, and hearing loss. Dr. Clarice Naya leads the pediatric unit after completing a fellowship in pediatric ENT at the Federal University of São Paulo.

For patients with hearing loss, the clinic performs the BERA exam. This test evaluates how the auditory system responds to sound. Doctors use it to investigate speech difficulties and hearing changes in patients of all ages.

The clinic also manages sleep apnea through several approaches:

• CPAP therapy for moderate and severe cases
• Airway surgeries to improve breathing
• Intraoral devices for better sleep positioning
• Weight loss and habit modification programs

Dr. Paulo Marsiglio focuses on sleep medicine to address loud snoring and daytime fatigue.

Facial Aesthetic and Functional Surgery

The surgical department combines aesthetic refinement with functional correction. Surgeons follow a multi-step pathway that includes virtual consultations and surgical planning before the procedure. Dr. José Stênio Ponte Dias leads the surgical direction with over 10 years of experience in head and neck surgery.

Rhinoseptoplasty is a flagship procedure at the clinic. Surgeons correct deviated septums to relieve nasal obstruction while refining the nose's shape. They use the structured rhinoplasty technique, which employs grafts from the septum, ears, or ribs to strengthen the nasal tip.

The clinic also offers other facial surgeries:

• Blepharoplasty to remove excess eyelid skin and under-eye fat
• Mentoplasty to correct the chin's appearance and function
• Otoplasty for ear reshaping
• Adenoid removal, typically lasting 30 minutes under general anesthesia

Dr. Marco Túlio Soares specializes in facial surgery. He received advanced rhinoplasty training at Stanford University and the Dallas Rhinoplasty Meeting.

Medical Technology and Diagnostics

OtorrinoDF Prime uses Storz machines for surgical and diagnostic procedures. These work alongside flexible nasofibroscopy to visualize the nasal cavity and throat. The diagnostic suite includes audiometry, otoscopy, and laryngeal videoendoscopy for precise surgical planning.

Services for International Patients

The PRIME program is a dedicated service for patients traveling from abroad. The process begins with a virtual consultation to discuss goals and simulate potential results. Patients then travel to Brazil for pre-surgical exams and in-person evaluations.

The clinic offers "domingo a domingo" care – it stays open every day of the week. This gives international patients continuous access to medical support during recovery. Staff provide consultations in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
