Stephen A. Wheless, M.D.

Board Certified: American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery

Dr. Wheless grew up in Greensboro, North Carolina.

As an otolaryngologist, Dr. Wheless spends most of his time working directly with patients and their families.

His passion is harnessing new technologies to safely and efficiently deliver top-quality care to his patients. Using cutting-edge tools and techniques, Dr. Wheless particularly enjoys helping patients with a history of unsuccessful sinus surgeries to enjoy a level of sinus health that they previously thought impossible.

When Dr. Wheless is not working to help patients lead happier and more productive lives, he enjoys attending live music events, roughhousing with his dogs, and photography.
