About
DR. Andrew T. Cheng, M.D.
For years, I have served as a useful source to those seeking inspiration, help, or advice. I finally decided to own that role and be intentional about it. I started writing about my passions, thoughts, and curious wonder about our world. I founded ENT Medical Expert with a mission to give others a taste of what goes on in my mind, and I have been at it ever since. Take some time to explore the website, read something interesting, and feel free to reach out
