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.

The answers and plan I’ve been seeking.

After months of suffering throat symptoms and being passed around by doctors with different ideas, none of which were helpful, Dr. Aviv gave me a diagnosis that makes sense and a concrete plan. He even showed me video of my throat and the places that were inflamed and where my constant “drip” was coming from. I left his office feeling relieved, hopeful, and very confident in his care and expertise.

Excellent

I have one complaint: the telephone and computer system. Terrible. Not in keeping with the office of distinguished doctors. More like a car repair shop. The doctors and staff are great, but they're losing patients because people don
't want to listen to endless advertising. It's insulting.

Excellent!

During my first appointment, Dr. Aviv took
a good 45 minutes of his time to map out a comprehensive course of treatment. At my follow-up, he was very encouraged by my positive results, and of course, so was I!
Thank you, Dr. Aviv!

Great visit with Dr. Aviv, as usual

Dr. Aviv is a fantastic physician. He listens to my concerns as well as to the other, potentially non-ENT-related issues, to get a full picture of what's going on with me, before making his assessment and diagnosis. He is a food-first doctor, who believes the way we eat can change the way we feel, and he always recommends dietary changes before suggesting medicine. He is kind and personable, and I am so glad I found him and his Acid Watcher books!
