Interests

● “I love being an ENT physician. It attracted me because it is unique in that the practice of ear, nose and throat is spent not only in the office interacting with patients but also in the operating room. I enjoy being a clinician and a surgeon. It is also a specialty where I get to see babies, kids, and adults. I have been in practice long enough now that some of the babies I’ve treated, now see me as adults and often bring their kids in for care. That is pretty special.”

Special Interests

● “While I appreciate the whole field of Otolaryngology, I find a particular interest in the treatment of challenging sinus conditions.”
● Dr. Hardeman has supported the International Medical Assistance Foundation in partnership with the Catholic Medical Association to provide much needed surgical care to patients in Honduras with little access to ENT medical help.
