PA Barbee provides expert evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of patients presenting with various ear, nose, and throat complaints, including nasal congestion, acute and chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, nosebleeds, loss of smell, burning mouth, chronic runny nose, post-nasal drip, ear infection, hearing loss, tinnitus, and tonsillitis. She has a special interest in severe chronic sinus diseases such as aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, fungal sinusitis, autoimmune sinus disease, chronic polyposis, and sinus tumors, having worked exclusively in rhinology and skull base surgery for six years.
As a Washington native, PA Barbee is committed to providing outstanding healthcare to her local community. With a background in nursing, she was trained to see, hear, and treat the entire person, not just the disease, and understands that an acute or chronic illness affects the entire person, not just the affected body part.
Outside of her medical practice, Katie prefers to be outdoors as much as possible and can be found cheering at various youth sporting events, running, working in the yard, and walking her dog.
