Dr. Harris has dedicated his life to the care of children with ear, nose, and throat problems.  After completing medical school and surgical training, he completed a fellowship at MUSC, dedicated to developing the skills to treat children with complex ear, nose, and throat problems. Fellowship training is what distinguishes Dr. Harris from others in the area – he is the only 100% private and 100% pediatric ENT in the lowcountry. He has made it his life’s work to raise the standard of care in the lowcounty so that no child is denied the expert care he can provide. He has written articles and given lectures over the years, helping inform the next generation of pediatric surgical specialists.  He has a passion for problems of the airway, and has studied the role of the HPV virus in the airway.  When it comes to surgery on the ear, nose, or throat of children, you can trust Dr. Harris to provide expert care. 

Personally, Dr. Harris hails from Chicago originally, though he has family roots in the upstate Spartanburg area.  His ancestors were eastern european settlers who came to find a better life at the turn of the last century.  The hard-working, family-first, faithful people, who would go on to work the land (and eventually the steel mills around the great lakes area) are the people he is proud to call family.  Dr. Harris and his wife Dawn, with ties to Savannah herself, settled in the lowcoutry because of the warm hospitality and desire for a strong, tight-knit community to raise their children.  Their 7 children have been raised to enjoy the salty air at the beach, the feel of the pluff mud between their fingers, and the excitement of reeling in a bull red. You can see them around town at the you-pick farms, the boat launches, the beaches, and the historical sites on the peninsula of Charleston downtown.
