About our clinic

South Arkansas Ear, Nose & Throat Clinic has cared for three generations of Pine Bluff families. Our promise is simple: real time with a real doctor, and honest guidance you can trust.
Our story
A lifetime of caring for South Arkansas.
Dr. Stephen Shorts opened his practice in Pine Bluff in 1983 and never left. Over four decades he's treated the ears, noses, and throats of children who grew up and brought back children of their own. That continuity — knowing a family's history, being here year after year — is what makes this clinic different.
Today, with audiologist Dr. Lindsey Anderson, the clinic brings complete hearing care under the same roof: diagnosis, treatment, and the follow-through that keeps you hearing your best.
