General Info
Dr. Jonathan Aviv is the Clinical Director of the Voice and Swallowing Center™‚ a division of ENT and Allergy Associates, LLP (ENTA) and author of the health and wellness book designed for non-medical professionals called "The Acid Watcher Diet: A 28-Day Reflux Prevention and Healing Program". He comes to the practice from Columbia University‚ where he served as Professor of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery‚ Director‚ Division of Laryngology and Medical Director‚ Voice and Swallowing Center at the College of Physicians and Surgeons. Among his many substantive credentials‚ he is the inventor and developer of the endoscopic air-pulse laryngeal sensory testing technology known as FEESST (Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing with Sensory Testing) and a pioneer in the use of unsedated upper endoscopy known as Transnasal Esophagoscopy (TNE). He is a graduate of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, and completed both internship in General Surgery and residency in Otolaryngology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and then added a Fellowship at Mount Sinai in Microvascular Head and Neck Reconstruction. In The Acid Watcher Diet, Dr. Jonathan Aviv gave acid reflux sufferers a pathway to healing, helping them identify the silent symptoms of acid damage and providing a two-phase eating and lifestyle plan to reduce whole-body acid damage and inflammation.Now, The Acid Watcher Cookbook widens the possibilities of what acid watchers can eat without repercussions. For many people struggling with acid damage, acidic foods like tomatoes, citrus fruits, vinegar, and reflux-inducing foods like raw onion and garlic, and chocolate are off-limits. After hearing patient after patient bemoaning the loss of vinaigrette, tomato sauce, ketchup, guacamole, and other staples, Dr. Aviv and coauthor Samara Kaufmann Aviv developed an innovative method of cooking that combines acidic foods with alkaline foods so that acidity is neutralized. By following a few simple guidelines, anyone will be able to enjoy dishes that had previously exacerbated their acid reflux symptoms.Dr. Aviv was Chairman of the Speech‚ Voice and Swallowing Disorders Committee of the American Academy of Otolaryngology/ Head and Neck Surgery‚ the Technical Advisor to the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research branch of the Department of Health and Human Services regarding swallowing problems in the elderly and former President of both the American Broncho-Esophagological Association (ABEA) and The New York Laryngological Society.

Dr. Aviv is just the BEST.

Jonathan Aviv has been my doctor for eight or nine years. I first met him when my ENT since childhood, Dr. Sacks, called him into the examination room to look at my very compromised vocal chords. I’m a singer, and was dangerously close to ruining my voice, due to a bad cold. I was turned over to his care, and he saved my voice, and has continued to for all of these years. He’s wise, kind, funny, and really cares. He takes time with me, answering any questions I have about my voice, reflux and sinus issues. He gives stellar advice on diet to keep acid down—he’s THE expert on this. I can’t sing his praises enough! I’m so very grateful for Dr. Aviv.

My appointment exceeded my hopes and expectations.

I am on Cloud 9 after my visit with Dr Aviv. I learned a tremendous amount about what was going on with my body. Dr Aviv developed a very clear cut and specific plan for me. I have my marching orders on what I need to do to heal. I am overjoyed at the thought of me taking back control when I thought I had lost it. 5 star treatment.

Dr. Aviv is AWESOME!!!!

This was my follow up visit with Dr. Aviv. Hence, at this visit, I had a better understanding of his style ad expectations. The visit went very well. He gave me the time to explain my progress and current symptoms. He explained what the root cause was and most importantly, he gave my strong reassurance (supported by the results of throat exam he carried out) that I would indeed get well one day, I felt really good and positive after the visit.

Dr Aviv is extremely knowledgeable and thorough

Dr Aviv explained his findings to me taking the time to explain in terms I could understand. He takes a thorough history of past medications, procedures and diet and offered several treatment options which included medications, diet restrictions, steam recommendation, and even smoothie recipes. I was also recommended for allergy testing and voice therapy. Wow. When I left his office I actually had hope that I could feel better and be healed!
