Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists and Grand Rapids Ear, Nose & Throat Unite as One Practice

Grand Rapids, MI — March 17, 2026 — Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists and Grand Rapids Ear, Nose & Throat announced today that they are officially combining into a single, unified practice under the Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists name. The integration brings together two respected West Michigan ENT organizations with a shared commitment to physician-led care, clinical excellence, and an enhanced patient experience.

This combination reflects a strategic alignment built on shared values, complementary expertise, and a common vision for the future of ENT, allergy, and audiology care across the region. Patients will continue to receive care from the same trusted physicians and care teams, now supported by a broader network of clinical collaboration, resources, and services.

“Bringing our practices together allows us to build on what each organization already does exceptionally well,” said Greg Artz, M.D., of Grand Rapids Ear, Nose & Throat. “This is about strengthening our ability to serve patients today and for years to come. As one combined practice, we will build of our reputation for excellence and expand access to care for patients.”

Under the Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists name, the unified practice will continue to offer comprehensive ear, nose, throat, allergy, hearing, and related specialty services, while creating new opportunities for care coordination, innovation, and long-term growth throughout West Michigan.

“This is a true ‘better together’ moment,” said Seth Palmer, D.O., of Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists. “By combining our teams and expertise, we’re expanding access to high-quality care while remaining deeply rooted in the communities we serve.”

Patients can expect continuity of care throughout the transition. Office locations, providers, and clinical teams will remain in place, with thoughtful integration designed to enhance and not disrupt the patient experience.
