The history of neuro-otology. A personal perspective.
I realize I practiced otology and neuro-otology during a golden era, but I have to admit that I didn't appreciate how important it was until I sat down to outline this article. How fortunate I was to have lived and practiced during these developing years of neuro-otology. How fortunate to have worked with the likes of Howard and William House, James Sheehy, James Crabtree, David Austin, and John Shea. How fortunate to have had the opportunity to teach residents and fellows in association with my private practice. So I envy the young otologist-neuro-otologist and the future you have. You stand on the brink of great discoveries. And like my generation, you stand on the shoulders of giants. Good luck.
