Professional History
Dr. Roger Nuss is an Associate in Otolaryngology and the Director of the Pediatric Voice and Velopharyngeal Dysfunction Program at Boston Children’s Hospital.

Approach to Care
I've been a part of the Otolaryngology department at Boston Children's Hospital for over 20 years. I work in several multi-disciplinary teams, caring for children with complex disorders involving the larynx and airway. We feel that a coordinated team approach is most helpful for patients and families, and helps achieve the best possible outcomes.
