Biography
Dr. Ravi Elluru obtained his MD and PhD degrees from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas and completed a residency in otolaryngology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri.
After residency, Dr. Elluru completed an accredited fellowship in pediatric otolaryngology with an emphasis on treating children with disorders of the upper aerodigestive tract.
Dr. Elluru enjoys treating a broad variety of ear, nose, and throat conditions in children.
In addition to his clinical interests, one of Dr. Elluru's long-term research goals is to gain a better understanding of upper respiratory tract lesions and develop more efficacious treatment options.
