ENT Family Co-founder

Dr. David Eleff graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science from Excelsior College. He went on to earn his medical degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, where he was honored with induction into the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. He then completed a rigorous five-year residency in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at University of Miami, training at a Level I trauma center and gaining extensive experience in both routine and complex ENT care. He capped off his training serving as chief resident, where he helped lead departmental research initiatives and foster academic excellence among residents and medical students.

Over the past four years, Dr. Eleff has cared for more than 15,000 patients across South Florida and proudly serves patients throughout the HCA Florida Aventura Hospital, Memorial Healthcare System, and Broward hospital communities.

He believes every patient deserves to feel heard, respected, and cared for like family.

Beyond medicine, Dr. Eleff is a proud father of four, an avid tennis player, a dedicated Orangetheory Fitness enthusiast, and a self-proclaimed grill master known for cooking a mean steak.
