Tampa Children's ENT

What Tampa Children's ENT does

Tampa Children's ENT is a private, for-profit pediatric specialty medical practice founded in 2009 and operating as a division of Florida Pediatric Associates, LLC. The practice provides comprehensive ear, nose, throat, head, neck, hearing, and allergy care for pediatric patients from newborns through young adults, with services spanning routine evaluations, advanced diagnostics (OAE, ABR, behavioral hearing tests, APD testing), allergy skin-prick panels tailored to Florida's climate, and surgical procedures including the FDA-approved TULA System for in-office ear tube placement (which uses iontophoresis to deliver local anesthesia, eliminating the need for general anesthesia). The clinical team comprises 4 board-certified pediatric otolaryngologists, 5 advanced practice registered nurses, and 3 audiologists, organized around four core service lines (Otolaryngology, Audiology, Allergy, TULA) and several ancillary offerings (Frenulectomies, Earwells, Cochlear Implants, Aerodigestive Team Care, Sleep Apnea Care, Cleft Lip and Palate Care).

The practice operates on a fee-for-service insurance-billing model, accepting 16+ commercial and government plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare, Medicaid, and Tricare, plus self-pay. It distributes through three physical Tampa Bay locations (West Virginia Ave headquarters in Tampa, Bloomingdale Health Hub in Valrico, and a one-day-a-week North Tampa satellite at Bruce B Downs Blvd), supported by digital channels including a website, secure patient portal (myezyaccess.com), bilingual English/Spanish patient education materials, and RepuGen-certified testimonials. Patient acquisition is primarily direct-to-consumer via phone or online request, augmented by referrals from primary care pediatricians.

The practice reports no venture or private equity backing, no disclosed M&A activity, no leadership turnover, and no external funding rounds; ownership commentary indicates founder/independent operation under the Florida Pediatric Associates, LLC umbrella. Revenue, visit volumes, payer mix, and profitability figures are not publicly disclosed.

Direct peers

• Pediatric Ear, Nose & Throat of Atlanta (Children's Healthcare of Atlanta): Children's Healthcare of Atlanta operates a large pediatric otolaryngology program serving children across Georgia. Comparable as a pediatric-only ENT specialty practice with audiology, allergy, and surgical services for the same patient demographic (newborns through teens).
• Nemours Children's Health Pediatric Otolaryngology: Nemours operates pediatric ENT specialty programs across Florida (including Jacksonville and Orlando) and the broader Northeast. Directly comparable in scope: pediatric ENT consultations, audiology, allergy testing, and surgical procedures for children, often sharing referral channels with Tampa Children's ENT through Florida Pediatric Associates' footprint.
• Pediatric Otolaryngology Associates (New York): Independent pediatric ENT specialty practice in the New York metro area focused exclusively on children's ear, nose, throat, and hearing conditions. Highly comparable business model and clinical offering to Tampa Children's ENT, serving the same patient demographic.

Broad incumbents

• Johns Hopkins Pediatric Otolaryngology: Johns Hopkins' pediatric ENT division is a national referral center offering comprehensive otolaryngology, audiology, and allergy services for children. Comparable in clinical scope but operates at academic-medical-center scale with research and training programs.
• Boston Children's Hospital Department of Otolaryngology: Boston Children's is a leading academic pediatric otolaryngology program offering the full pediatric ENT, audiology, cochlear implant, and allergy service stack. Comparable in clinical offering to Tampa Children's ENT but at significantly larger academic scale.
• ENT and Allergy Associates (ENTA): ENTA is a large multi-specialty ENT and allergy practice group across the Northeast US offering audiology, allergy, and ENT services. Comparable in service breadth (ENT + audiology + allergy under one roof) but operates as a general (not pediatric-exclusive) practice at much larger scale.
• Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh ENT (UPMC): UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh operates a high-volume pediatric otolaryngology department with audiology, allergy, and complex surgical care. Comparable in clinical scope but anchored within a large hospital system rather than an independent practice.

Regional players

• Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego Pediatric ENT: Rady Children's operates a comprehensive pediatric otolaryngology and audiology program in the Southern California market. Comparable in clinical scope (pediatric ENT, audiology, allergy) but geographically distinct from Tampa and embedded in a children's hospital system.
