Dr. Birns<\/strong>\u00a0received his B.A. at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) in 1971 and his medical degree with honors in 1975 at the University of Southern California School of Medicine (USC).<\/p>\n

He completed his internship and residency in Head & Neck Surgery at UCLA from 1975-1980 and became board-certified in Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery in 1980.<\/p>\n

From 1980 until 2005, Dr. Birns<\/strong> was on faculty at Children\u2019s Hospital of Los Angeles and is a charter member of ASPO, the American Society of Pediatric Otolaryngology.
