Michael Armstrong, Jr., M.D.

Michael Armstrong, Jr., M.D. has practiced otolaryngology and facial plastic surgery in

Richmond, Virginia since 1995. Dr. Armstrong is a nationally recognized leader in office-

based sinus surgery, with several publications in print and under review. He is also known for

his skill in reconstructing cancer defects of the nose and ear. With a constant eye for new and

less invasive surgical techniques, he stays abreast of current research through educational

meetings and self-study. In the operating room and in the office, he is an innovator who has

introduced one or more techniques for each year in practice.

Dr. Armstrong places great emphasis on teaching, using multimedia presentations and a well-trained staff to

educate patients and their families. He is frequently asked to speak as a regional expert on allergies and upper

respiratory tract infections, including sinusitis and otitis media. The Chesterfield Family Practice Residency has

awarded him “Outstanding Educator in Otolaryngology” four times. He is also an instructor for St. Francis Family

Practice and the former Hanover Family Practice residencies. He was appointed an assistant clinical professor at

the Medical College of Virginia in 2003.

Dr. Armstrong founded Richmond ENT in January 2001 with the goal of improving the quality of the patient's office

experience. Legally organized as “Advanced Otolaryngology, P.C.,” the corporation has grown to six professionals,

including two physicians, three nurse practitioners and a doctor of audiology. While we provide comprehensive

care of most aspects of adult and pediatric otolaryngology, our primary divisions include Richmond Facial Plastics

and Richmond Sinus and Allergy. Richmond Hearing Aids was incorporated independently in 2009.

A Richmond native, Dr. Armstrong is a graduate of Princeton University and Duke University Medical School. He

completed a residency and fellowship at The Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1995. He is board-certified in both

Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery and in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. He serves on the patient

safety and public information committees of the American Academy of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. He

has also successfully completed the fellowship examination of the American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy. He is

an active member of the American Rhinologic Society, and the Christian Medical and Dental Society. He is a

founding partner with the Stony Point Surgery Center, where he has served as chairman of the Patient Care

Committee, and as the Chief of Staff. He is on the research grant committee and the board of managers for the

Medarva Foundation, a 501c charitable organization that survives the Richmond Eye and Ear Hospital. The

foundation supports several vision and hearing programs in central Virginia and awards over $250,000 annually in

grants to eye, ear, nose and throat researchers at Virginia medical schools. Dr. Armstrong devotes one week of

vacation per year to medical missionary work, serving at the Mission of Hope, Bolivia and the Africa Inland Church-

CURE Children‟s Hospital in Kijabe, Kenya. Locally, he volunteers as an Assistant Scoutmaster at Boy Scout Troop

799, and as a 5-6th grade teacher at Third Presbyterian Church. He plays church basketball and USTA tennis, but

he is a better surgeon than athlete.
