Emily Funk, MD
Assistant Professor, Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
Biography
I am a fellowship-trained otolaryngologist who specializes in treating benign (noncancerous) and malignant (cancerous) conditions of the head and neck. My expertise includes head and neck skin cancers, skull base surgery and reconstruction of head and neck defects using flaps of healthy tissue. I’m also skilled in robotic surgery for hard-to-reach areas of the body.
The most rewarding part of being a physician is being able to tell my patients they have come to the right place, while asking for their trust and the privilege of taking care of them. I’m a Lancaster native. In my free time, I enjoy playing with my rescue dog, hiking, reading, photography, travel, cooking and exploring local restaurants.
