Dr. Daram values being a patient-focused provider and addressing pediatric patients’ needs and concerns directly. He believes in educating them as much as possible and strives to inform the parents about the problems their child is having, how the problem developed, and all the potential treatment options available so they can make a treatment decision together. The extra time he takes to provide this kind of education puts his pediatric patients’ parents at ease and helps them trust him as he guides them through their medical process.

With pediatric audiology, speech, imaging, and other medical and surgical subspecialties, combined with the backing of the world-class Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital to aid in treatment, surgeries, and post-operative care, his practice is uniquely positioned to provide comprehensive and efficient care to any child, regardless of how complex or simple their diagnosis may be.
Dr. Daram completed his otolaryngology-head and neck surgery training at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas in 2018, followed by a pediatric otolaryngology fellowship at the Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago in 2019. After his fellowship, he practiced at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston and Clear Lake, Texas for over three years.
Dr. Daram is dual board-certified in comprehensive otorhinolaryngology and pediatric otorhinolaryngology. His professional memberships include the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery where he serves on the Airway and Swallowing Committee and the Education and Sleep Committee.

Provider really took the time to read the notes on my son's file. He took the time to explain his thoughts to me about what steps we should take to best evaluate the best plan for my son. Really appreciate the insight and care.
Waited for 2 hours and not easy to fine.
The doctor was very kind and explained, and treated my son very well.
Good service and good doctor
Totally satisfied with the service of all the staff
Well, they treated me well, the child, they explained everything very well, the doctor and the nurse came, everything was very good, thank you very much.
It was a wonderful experience! Everyone was very nice! Glad we are coming here!
Lovely
The provider always make me happy about my baby health.
My daughter has a top notch medical team at UT Physicians. Dr. Daram is her ENT doctor. He does a great job explaining to me what is going on with her ears and has provided guidance on next steps. I am grateful that my doctor receives exceptional care at UT Physicians.
Although there's always a significant wait time, we don't mind. Dr. Daram is very thorough in explaining the patient's condition and plan of care. He takes his time and answers all of our questions to our satisfaction.
Oh, they treated me very well, my daughter, and they translated everything into Spanish, which was good. [...]
Very friendly, excellent professionals
The waiting time for them to attend to you is a long time. They had me waiting for 3 hours and it took an appointment, but it is a long time.
He is a very awesome doctor. He's so theoretical. I highly recommend him for patients.
dr shiva was awesome
This was our first visit due to my child sticking something up her nose! From the first call to setup the doctors visit to when we checked out the team was amazing kind and very professional. The energy they gave was calming. The nurse reassured my kid that they not gone hurt her. My daughter was sooo scared due to her doctor trying to remove what was stuck in her nose. They were patient with us even when she was crying kicking and screaming. The whole team needs a raise. Even the people sitting at the front desk. They all had smile and beyond helpful. Thank you again for getting that thing out my baby nose!!!!!!!
Excellent attention
Very welcoming staff!! Everyone in the front office was super nice and friendly.
Yes, the only thing I didn't like, they should improve it is the amount of time we spent in the room waiting to be served.
Over an hour wait for an appointment was unacceptable
Excellent work
Dr Daram was awesome
Please continue doing things the way you do, very good experience.
We had a wait time of over one hour. I left work early to bring my daughter to her appointment. A phone call would've been appreciated to let me know that they were running behind because I could've stayed at work for an additional hour. We were not given updates while in the waiting room for how long our wait would be. It was quite difficult to sit around that long with a toddler. My experience with the physician was great... wait times were horrific
He was treated by 2 doctors, who were very kind and affectionate with my child. And although I don't speak English, they explained very well the entire procedure that is going to be performed on my son.
Dr. Daram is caring and explains everything the patient needs to know.
It's was fast and very informative
Amazing patient care! Amazing staff!
Easy to schedule appointment online. A bit of a wait to see MD. All questions answered.
