Job Description

Position Title: Clinical Audiologist Full-time, Part-time or PRN options

Hours: Mon.-Fri., 8am-5pm; Full-time 40 hours/week,

Location: Raleigh Capitol Ear Nose and Throat; multiple offices

Do you want to work for a growing Otolaryngology practice? Raleigh-Capitol Ear Nose, Throat and Allergy came into being in July 2012, with the merger of Raleigh ENT (founded in 1965 by Dr. Nathaniel Sparrow) and Capitol ENT (founded by Drs. Craig Price and Michael Parker in 1983).

These two premier practices combined in order to provide more expansive services and more convenient patient care. Raleigh Capitol Ear, Nose & Throat is Physician-owned and is not owned or managed by any hospital or university. This represents a significant advantage to our patients, as it allows us to select the best and most cost-effective services for our patients, rather than limiting them to certain facilities based on contractual or ownership obligations.

Professional service. Innovative treatments. The highest standard of compassionate patient care. These are the central tenets of our practice and the cornerstones of our philosophy for more than 50 years. We pride ourselves on consistently offering comprehensive care tailored to meet the needs of each patient by combining old-fashioned quality customer service with the latest proven medical care and technology. Crucial for all of our providers is the responsibility to not only provide the highest level of care but to do so in a manner that is also both compassionate and cost-effective.
