Steven Howard Sloan, MD

I became a doctor because I truly enjoy helping people feel better and live healthier lives. One of the best parts of my job is meeting new people every day, learning from them, and doing what I can to make a positive difference.

I chose to specialize in ENT (ear, nose, and throat) care because I find the head and neck area to be both fascinating and complex. I treat patients of all ages for a wide range of conditions, including hearing loss, sore throats, hoarse voices, sinus infections, nosebleeds, sleep apnea, and tumors of the head and neck. There’s a lot of variety in ENT care, and I enjoy using medical, nonsurgical, and surgical treatments to help my patients feel better.

During my training at UCLA and Mount Sinai Schools of Medicine, I became especially interested in treating voice and swallowing problems, sleep-related breathing issues such as snoring, and ear pain or hearing loss. I also gained experience working with non-cancerous and cancerous tumors of the face, throat, salivary glands, and neck.

In my practice, I bring a friendly attitude, a caring heart, and a strong background in ENT care. I take the time to listen carefully and make sure my patients feel heard, understood, and respected. My patients often tell me they appreciate how thorough, thoughtful, and approachable I am.

When you visit me, you can expect to be welcomed with a smile and treated with kindness and patience. I believe in working closely with each patient to explain their condition, answer questions, and come up with a treatment plan that makes sense for them. I’ll always take time to examine with care, talk through diagnoses, and make sure patients feel comfortable with next steps.

My approach is simple: Treat people the way I’d want to be treated; with respect, compassion, and honesty. I work hard to earn my patients’ trust and give them the best care possible using state-of-the-art treatments and techniques. What brings me the most joy is building long-term relationships with my patients and seeing them feel better and live well.

Outside of work, I enjoy staying active through daily exercise such as cycling, skiing, hiking, and paddleboarding. I also love live music, restoring and collecting vintage cars, watching sports, and spending time with my wife, three children, and our labradoodle
