Always striving to provide gold-standard treatment, Dr. Arvind (Vin) Prabhat offers thorough and comprehensive care for ear, nose, and throat disorders as a partner in ENT and Allergy Associates. Whether performing a pediatric tonsillectomy or image-guided sinus surgery, he offers compassionate, individualized attention to every patient. “It’s very important that every person feels their problems have been thoroughly addressed and that I am responsive and sympathetic to their concerns,” he says.

Double-board certified in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery and facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, his expertise includes thyroid surgery, head and neck oncologic surgery, and functional sinus surgery. As chief of otolaryngology at Monmouth Medical Center for more than ten years, he works closely with specialists to ensure that patients receive exceptional care. He has been teaching medical students and residents for over two decades now through Rutgers RWJ Medical School. “Teaching is an incredibly fulfilling aspect of my career,” he says. “It’s a way of giving back while staying up-to-date with developments in my field.”

Dr. Prabhat is humbled by the many physicians, nurses, and patients who refer their friends and family to him. “They know me and my work firsthand,” he says. “There’s no bigger compliment.” Dr. Prabhat shares his practice with partners Drs. Darsit Shah, Philip Passalaqua, and Michael Tavill.
