ABOUT US
Dr. Phillips has had a strong interest in providing the highest level of care for those who suffer with sinus and nasal symptoms for over 30 years. Early in his medical career he studied the effects and outcomes of sinus surgery in children, publishing three papers on this subject in national medical journals. He subsequently recognized the pivotal role that allergies play in the successful treatment of many nasal and sinus maladies. In 1999 he completed an allergy fellowship, being recognized as a Fellow of the American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy.
He was instrumental in bringing Sublingual Allergy Immunotherapy (allergy drops) to the greater Indianapolis community. In 2006, he and his Sinus & Allergy colleagues were the first sinus surgeons in Indianapolis, and among the first in the Midwest to be trained in the emerging technology of Balloon-assisted sinus surgery, and continue to train and be trained on the newest innovations with these and other techniques to offer cutting edge treatment for those who suffer with sinus and nasal issues.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“Dr Scott Phillips provided me with excellent treatment. He diagnosed the problem quickly after a thorough examination and treated the affected area. He sent me home with a prescription and follow up instructions. I have not had a problem since the visit- he pronounced me healed after the follow up exam. I would refer any of my family or friends to Dr Phillips- he has an easy going but professional manner and puts you at ease quickly. Although nose treatments are painful, he was able to exam and treat with a minimum of discomfort. I am glad that my primary care doctor referred me to Dr Phillips."
