ENT department is responsible for treating conditions that affect senses such as hearing and balance disorders or smell and taste problems.

Our qualified surgeons can treat patients with conditions that affect their voice, breathing and swallowing as well as those with head and neck tumours including the skull base and interface with the brain.

OUR ENT SURGEONS TREAT A WIDE RANGE OF CONDITIONS. THESE INCLUDE:

  • nasal injuries
  • nasal polyps
  • tumours of the nose
