✨ Behind every great practice is an incredible support team ✨

We were able to pause briefly for a New Year’s toast to our amazing support staff at Northwest Florida ENT — no small feat, since they’re almost always busy taking care of patients.

From the first phone call to the final follow-up, this dedicated team works tirelessly to keep our clinic running smoothly and to ensure every patient feels welcomed and supported.

We truly couldn’t do what we do without them. 💙

✨ Please join us in welcoming our newest Physician Assistant, John-Thomas “JT” Carrino, PA-C! ✨

JT is a board-certified Physician Assistant with over 10 years of clinical experience in ENT care—and he’s excited to be returning home to Northwest Florida. He spent much of his childhood in Shalimar and Valparaiso while his parents were stationed at Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field.

After earning his Bachelor of Arts in Biology (with a minor in Psychology) from Tusculum University, JT completed his Master of Medical Science at the LMU–DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine Physician Assistant Program. He is a Fellow of both the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Tennessee Academy of Physician Assistants.

For the past decade, JT practiced with Greeneville Ear, Nose, and Throat Specialists, where he cared for patients in the clinic, assisted in surgery, and helped train future medical professionals. He has extensive experience diagnosing and treating allergy, sinus, and vestibular disorders, with a strong focus on individualized, compassionate care.

JT is thrilled to return to the area with his wife, Gabrielle, and their two daughters, Ella (3) and Emilia (3 months). Outside of medicine, he enjoys University of Tennessee sports, boating, building custom PCs, and spending time with his family—and their two dogs, Prince and Mae.

📍 We’re excited to welcome JT back to Northwest Florida and to our practice!

Nervous about an in-lab sleep study on our 2nd floor facility?

You’re not alone.

Many patients tell us they worry they won’t be able to sleep or that the experience will feel uncomfortable. This recent review perfectly captures what our patients often discover instead 💙

Our sleep lab is designed to feel calm, quiet, and comfortable—and our technologists take the time to explain every step, answer questions, and help patients feel completely at ease.

While home sleep studies work well for many people, some conditions require an in-lab study—and we’re proud to offer a setting where patients feel supported from start to finish.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you for trusting Northwest Florida Sleep Lab!
