Tarrytown, New York, Jan. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ENT and Allergy Associates, LLP (ENTA) has been a cornerstone of healthcare excellence in New York and New Jersey since 1998, providing exceptional care in ear, nose, throat, allergy, and audiology for over 25 years. From its modest origins, the practice has flourished into the premier specialty practice in the country, marked by numerous expansions and strategic growth initiatives. To continue this momentum, the practice proudly introduces its newest otolaryngologist, Usmaan Basharat, M.D. who will join ENTA’s Staten Island clinical location at 1 Teleport Drive on September 1, 2024.
Dr. Basharat’s expertise spans both pediatric and adult care, making him a valuable addition to the practice’s commitment to comprehensive patient services.
Dr. Basharat grew up in Phoenix, Arizona. His academic pursuit led him to Arizona State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences.

Dr. Basharat’s appointment is a testament to the practice’s dedication to patient care and its ongoing efforts to attract the finest otolaryngologists and allergists from across the country.
The addition of Dr. Basharat reflects the practice’s strategic approach to ensuring a seamless transition as seasoned physicians gradually move into retirement. The extensive recruitment process undertaken by ENTA is focused on identifying and onboarding the most accomplished specialists, ensuring the practice remains at the forefront of medical excellence.
