Dr. Frederick Lorenz is a board-certified otolaryngologist. An otolaryngologist is a physician that specializes in the treatment and management of diseases and disorders of the ear, nose, throat, and related bodily structures. They are often referred to as ear, nose, and throat (ENT) physicians and treat patients through medical and surgical means.
Dr. Lorenz previously worked at the Murray Calloway County Hospital in Murray, Kentucky.

He also specializes in performing facial plastic surgery with an emphasis on removing skin lesions, including malignancies and repair, and reconstruction following facial fractures and soft tissue injuries of the face, head, and neck.
