If you are a member of DAN(diversalert network),they have a referal service to locate one where you live.

Whenever I need medical help, I try to find doctors with diving experience. Especially if it is a closely related problem like seeing an ear, nose, throat doctor. I usually jsut ask my local dive center and they always have good referals. I now have a ENT who is a tech diver and a family doctor who also specializes in hyperbaric medicine...
Quite handy. A friend went to a ENT with a diving related ear problem and the totally unfamiliar with scuba ENT doc recommended he dive with an ear plug!!!

Hi Divinglife!

Where in NJ are you? I'm very close to northern Bergen county and have been looking for an ENT dive doc.

Thanks. (PM if you'd rather not post the dr info on the board).
