Glacier Ear, Nose and Throat continues to add services and providers to meet growing regional health care demands. The clinic is expanding its specialty care team, providing access to timely and affordable specialty surgeries and operating satellite clinics for rural communities.
Dr. Kyle Tubbs, a provider with Glacier ENT since 2013, said, “Glacier Ear, Nose and Throat has been providing the highest quality care in the Flathead Valley for over 50 years. We are thrilled to continue that tradition with the addition of Dr. William Caldwell and Taryn Collins, Doctor of Audiology, to our practice.”
New otolaryngologist Dr. Will Caldwell’s background exemplifies Glacier ENT’s focus on interdisciplinary specialty care. Dr. Caldwell, M.D., is ABOHNS board-certified in otolaryngology and sleep medicine, AASM fellowship-certified in sleep medicine and FAAOA fellowship-certified in ENT allergy. His expertise in several sub-specialties allows him to incorporate a variety of perspectives when evaluating and treating patients. He’s further expanding his knowledge by pursuing a board certification in wilderness medicine.
When asked why he is excited to bring his talents to the Flathead Valley, Dr. Caldwell said, “The most obvious answer only requires one to look outside. What an amazing place! Further, I am passionate about health care as a human right and look forward to enhancing access to the existing, remarkable ENT care for patients in the region.”
The practice is proud to offer patients an interdisciplinary approach to ear, nose and throat medicine that includes onsite sleep medicine services, a full suite of audiological services and an allergy program. The clinic is one of the few practices in the state that provides Inspire® therapy for obstructive sleep apnea.
“Patients can be evaluated by a provider, receive a CT scan if indicated, discuss the results and develop a treatment plan all within one visit,” said Dr. Kent Keele. “We can also often fit patients in to see us quickly when needed. That’s becoming increasingly rare for specialty health care.”
New audiologist Taryn Collins, Au.D., CCC-A, joins the practice’s award-winning audiology team. She assists her patients in navigating complex hearing loss treatment options and implements a compassionate, patient-centered approach to meet their individualized needs. At Glacier ENT, Dr. Collins offers hearing aids across a range of price points, increasing access to life-changing technology.
The clinic has also responded to the increasing need for timely, affordable care by opening a new surgery center. The surgery center, which opened in 2024, provides patients with access to more affordable, specialized surgical care while reducing wait times and improving cost transparency.
Glacier ENT also works to ensure that rural communities without local ear, nose and throat services have access to quality care. The clinic has recently started offering comprehensive ENT care in Anaconda and continues to serve patients in Ronan. It has also earned recognition across the border, attracting Canadians seeking fast, high-quality and cost-effective specialty care.
Glacier ENT is committed to continuing to provide the very best community-focused ENT services. For more information about Glacier ENT or to schedule an appointment, please call 406.752.8330 or complete our online form.
