Seth Schwartz, MD

Seth Schwartz, MD, is a board-certified otolaryngologist/neurotologist who provides cares for a wide-range of ear problems ranging from hearing loss and chronic ear disease to skull-base tumors. He specializes in cochlear implants, acoustic neuroma, hearing reconstructive surgery, chronic ear disease, and other medical and surgical management of ear problems.

Dr. Schwartz enjoys helping people to communicate better through hearing restoration surgery and cochlear implants, which is a large part of what he does as the head of the cochlear implant program at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health. He finds it hugely rewarding to be able to play a part in enhancing the quality of patients' lives through this transformative surgery.

When not busy practicing medicine, Dr. Schwartz enjoys skiing, biking and spending time in the outdoors.
