Dr. Daidone graduated from New York Medical College in 1990 and completed her internship at Kessler Medical Center in Mississippi in 1991 and her residency at Wilford Hall in San Antonio, Texas in 1996. She has been on staff at Calvert Memorial Hospital since 1999 and joined Calvert Otolaryngology in 2006. Since then, the practice has grown and expanded to keep pace with the growth of the community and the needs of its patients. Dr. Daidone currently provides specialty services to those who live in Calvert as well as Charles, St. Mary’s and southern Anne Arundel counties.

"We're committed to providing compassionate, personalized care in a comfortable, friendly environment," said Dr. Daidone. "We strive to treat each one of our patients like family." She stresses the importance of patient education. "It's vital that patients understand what they can do to improve their condition – such as making diet or lifestyle changes," she said. "We care about their overall health."

She removes tonsils using Coblation, a new cutting-edge option that reduces pain and speeds recovery. It uses radio frequency energy with a natural saline solution to gently and precisely remove tonsils. It takes about 20 minutes to perform and has a lower incidence of complications.
