Dr. Miles takes into consideration your lifestyle and goals when recommending surgical treatment plans.

Dr. Miles is an expert in head and neck oncologic and reconstruction surgery and has completed the highest level of fellowship surgical training. Not all head and neck cancer surgeons are trained in reconstruction. Dr. Miles performs microvascular surgery to transplant skin, muscle, and bone from one part of your body to another to rebuild the area affected by cancer removal. This is common for tumors of the jaw, tongue, throat, mouth, and face.
Dr. Miles treats a wide range of cancer of the head and neck. Cancers can develop on the lips, gums, jaw, tongue, tonsils, salivary glands, oropharynx, larynx, thyroid, skull base, skin, and other areas in the head and neck region. His dental background enables optimal outcomes for maxillary and mandibular cancers involving the teeth.
