Few Treatments for Loss of Smell

by · May 15, 2013

Last year, Midwest Wine Press tried to locate a program in Chicago that treated the loss of the sense of smell.  While we did find local ear, nose and throat specialists who can offer suggestions for people with diminished sense of smell (or taste), we could not find any physicians who offered a specific course of treatment.  As reported in Slate today, there is now a clinic in London that specializes in taste and smell disorders.  The Slate article says 1 in 20 people have problems with taste or smell.
