Clear answers and expert care for head and neck concerns.
Head and neck health covers a wide territory – your ears, nose, throat, and endocrine glands (thyroid & parathyroid). Symptoms like lumps, voice changes, swallowing difficulty, or unexplained pain deserve early attention. Our specialists offer consultant-led evaluation and tailored management, helping you move from symptoms to clarity, and treatment if needed.
Ears, nose & throat
From ears, nose and throat discomfort to thyroid or parathyroid concerns, our specialists deliver fast access, clear answers, and comprehensive care for head and neck health.
Parathyroid & neck endocrine
Diagnosis and treatment for parathyroid disorders, such as underactive/overactive glands, nodules or tumours – with imaging, blood tests and surgery as needed.
Common head & neck conditions
Head and neck conditions can affect everything – how you breath and swallow, your balance, and your hearing.
Sinusitis
Inflammation or infection of the sinuses causing congestion, pain and pressure – often linked to allergies or infections.
Tonsillitis & sore throat
Recurring tonsil infections can lead to pain, difficulty swallowing or sleep disturbances – sometimes tonsils require removal.
Hearing loss & ear infections
One of the most common ENT complaints, often caused by fluid, wax or an infection in the middle ear or ear canal.
Thyroid nodules
Lumps in the thyroid gland that are usually benign but sometimes need ultrasound or biopsy to exclude cancer.
Hyperparathyroidism
Overactive parathyroid glands raise calcium levels in the blood and can cause tiredness, bone or joint pain, low mood or kidney stones – although some people have no symptoms and it is picked up on blood tests.
Voice & swallowing disorders
Issues with the vocal cords or throat that affect speaking, swallowing or breathing – often linked to inflammation, reflux, vocal strain, infection, nerve problems or, rarely, structural changes.
When to see a head & neck specialist
If you notice a lump in the neck, persistent throat discomfort, swallowing difficulties, voice changes lasting longer than 3 weeks, unexplained ear pain, or breathing problems, it’s important to seek assessment. Early investigation helps identify the cause and ensures timely treatment.

We are due back in 3 months. Dr Darr's booking assistant is an amazing man called Pete i was very worried about this operation and he was so lovely explained how he knew Dr Darr and reassured me what a talented surgeon he was.
