His commitment to providing the highest quality care to his patients is evident in his work, and he remains passionate about the future of his profession.

Born in South Texas and raised as the youngest of four children, Dr. Morton was raised in a family that placed a high value on service and devotion, which led him to pursue a career in medicine.

He was informed of this honor just before attending the National Open Forum in New York City in July 2014, and has maintained that designation ever since. 

Dr. Morton and his staff not only perform this procedure regularly in their offices but have been asked to consult with outside physicians to assist in their learning the latest techniques in the treatment of sinusitis. He has carried out live broadcast satellite TV cases to educate other doctors throughout the country. They also train doctors from around the country who come to his office to be trained in these latest techniques, which is one of Dr. Morton’s most fulfilling aspects of his practice.

With a solid background, Dr. Morton is a Diplomate of the American Board of Otolaryngology, a Fellow of the American Academy of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery, a member of the Texas Medical Association, and a member of the Gregg/Upshur County Medical Society.
