About Us

Desert Cities Allergy & Otolaryngology offers comprehensive care for children, teens, and adults with problems affecting their ears, sinuses, throat, head, and neck. The experienced allergists and otolaryngologists, Majid Torabi, MD, FACS, and Ryan Salvador, MD, and their highly trained team welcome patients at two convenient locations in Rancho Mirage and La Quinta, California.


Known for their compassionate and personalized care, the team places a high value on teaching patients about their condition and helping them make the best treatment decisions. They frequently treat common problems such as nasal congestion, acute sinusitis, tonsillitis, tonsil stones, nose bleeds (epistaxis), ear infections, and impacted earwax that requires ear cleaning.


The team at Desert Cities Allergy & Otolaryngology also specializes in complex challenges. Patients often seek help for asthma, tinnitus, hoarseness, chronic sinusitis, and sleep apnea. As allergy specialists, the team offers 20-minute allergy testing and immunotherapy.


Dr. Torabi and Dr. Salvador have extensive training in head and neck surgery, including minimally invasive procedures. They offer balloon sinuplasty, today’s most advanced in-office treatment for chronic sinusitis.


The team often performs rhinoplasty to change the shape of the nose, as well as septoplasty to repair a deviated septum.
Patients who have noticed changes in their hearing can get hearing tests, from a basic evaluation to advanced diagnostics.
