Specialist care for your ears, nose and throat
Your ears, nose, and throat work together to support vital functions like breathing, hearing, swallowing, and speech. When something feels off – a blocked nose, ringing in your ears, recurring sore throats, or dizziness – it can affect everything from sleep to confidence.
Common ENT conditions we treat
Our ENT specialists manage everything from minor infections to complex structural or functional problems. Here are some of the most common reasons patients come to see us.
Sinusitis
Inflammation of the sinuses causing congestion, facial pain and pressure and difficulty breathing through the nose.
Tonsil removal
Surgery to remove the tonsils can help if you suffer from repeated tonsillitis or if enlarged tonsils affect your breathing or sleep.
Ear drum repair
Repairing a perforated eardrum (myringoplasty/tympanoplasty) can improve hearing, cut the risk of repeated ear infections, stop discharge and make swimming/showering safer.
Deviated septum
Straightening the wall between your nostrils when it’s crooked or off-centre. A deviated septum can make it hard to breathe or cause a blocked nose.
Nasal polyp removal
Nasal polyps are soft growths caused by long-term inflammation and can lead to blocked breathing, reduced sense of smell and recurrent sinus infections.
Sleep apnoea treatment
A common but serious condition that causes your breathing to repeatedly stop and start whilst you’re asleep – causing excessive fatigue during waking hours.
When to see an ENT specialist
If you have persistent ear, nose, or throat symptoms – like hearing loss, nasal blockage, dizziness, or recurrent infections – it’s worth booking a consultation with a specialist. Early investigation can restore comfort and prevent complications, so you can get life back on track.
