The specialty of Otolaryngology in Bicol Medical Center was formerly known as EENT (eyes, ears, nose, throat) as similar departments in other hospitals started.

In 2009, then Medical Center Chief Dr. Ruben Peñafiel ordered the ENT specialists to formally organize as a separate department known as the Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery (HNS) Department. The department's modernization continued until the tenure of the succeeding Medical Center Chief, Dr. Efren SJ Nerva. The department now has its own ENT Center and operating room in the new 8-storey building and an ENT treatment room in the new 5-storey ER complex.
