ENT & Allergy Associates (ENTA), a leader in ear, nose, throat, and allergy care, is excited to announce its strategic expansion into Texas. This significant move comes through a fruitful partnership with Houston ENT & Allergy, set to take effect at the beginning of 2026. This venture marks an important milestone for ENTA as it broadens its footprint beyond its established territories in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
Creating a New Entity in Collaboration
In joining forces, ENTA and Houston ENT & Allergy are forming a new organization called ENT & Allergy Associates of Texas, PLLC (ENTA-TX).
