Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating Lakeside ENT & Allergy's 50th Anniversary. It was a wonderful evening spent reflecting on five decades of caring for patients and families throughout the Finger Lakes region.

We are grateful to our providers, staff, patients, referral partners, and community members who have been part of our story over the years. Your trust and support have helped shape who we are today.

As we look ahead, we remain committed to delivering exceptional ENT and allergy care while continuing to grow alongside the communities we serve.

Thank you for celebrating this milestone with us—we couldn't have done it without you.

Kicking off our 50th anniversary year with a little 70s flair ✨
Lakeside began in 1976, and Spirit Day brought the retro looks, fun energy, and some seriously groovy outfits as we start celebrating 50 years of care. We’re so excited to honor where we started and look ahead to what’s next.

Long before modern medicine looked the way it does today, ENT care was already shaping how doctors listened, observed, and treated the whole patient. That deep-rooted history is part of what makes this specialty—and this milestone—so meaningful to us.

As Lakeside ENT & Allergy celebrates 50 years of care, we’re proud to be part of a specialty built on generations of knowledge, precision, and compassion.

💙 50 Years of Compassionate Care in 2026 💙

For five decades, Lakeside ENT & Allergy has been built on one simple belief: care should always be compassionate.

From listening closely to patient concerns, to supporting families through every stage of life, our team has been honored to care for generations of this community. It’s not just about treating symptoms—it’s about treating people with kindness, respect, and understanding.

As we celebrate 50 Years of Care, we want to say thank you—to our patients, families, and community—for trusting us, growing with us, and allowing us to be part of your healthcare journey.

Here’s to the moments, relationships, and compassion that make Lakeside feel like more than a practice 💙
