For conditions involving the skull base or orbit (eye socket), she works closely with colleagues in neurosurgery and ophthalmology to provide coordinated, multidisciplinary care.
Dr. Callander takes a thoughtful, individualized approach to care, with an emphasis on clear communication and shared decision-making. She strives to help patients understand their condition and select a treatment plan that reflects their symptoms, priorities, and long-term health.
Dr. Callander’s research focuses on developing biomarkers to better characterize inflammatory subtypes of chronic rhinosinusitis to personalize treatments. She also studies the genomic changes that drive sinonasal tumors and strategies for improving outcomes in endoscopic sinus and skull base surgeries. Dr. Callander’s work has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals and she has presented at national and international scientific meetings. She is also dedicated to teaching medical students, residents, and fellows and contributing to national educational resources for future otolaryngologists.
Dr. Callander is a member of the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS), the American Rhinologic Society (ARS), and the North American Skull Base Society.
