Clinical approach

Otolaryngology covers essential functions that allow us to hear, breathe and speak properly. Any disruption in these areas has a direct impact on quality of life.

I offer a comprehensive and close service, adapted to each patient and their needs. My goal is for you to understand your diagnosis and have a clear plan from the very first visit.

Main care areas

Specialized diagnosis and treatment across the three main areas of otolaryngology

Ear

The ear is essential for communication and balance. I perform a thorough hearing assessment to identify the root of each problem and recommend the most appropriate treatment.

  • Acute and chronic ear infections
  • Hearing loss and audiometric testing
  • Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
  • Vertigo and balance disorders
  • Earwax removal

Throat & voice

Throat problems can affect eating, breathing and voice. I diagnose and treat each case with a functional approach focused on recovery.

  • Recurrent pharyngitis and tonsillitis
  • Dysphonia and vocal cord conditions
  • Snoring and sleep apnoea
  • Swallowing difficulty (dysphagia)
  • Vocal nodules and polyps

Nose & sinuses

A well-functioning nose is key to breathing, resting and enjoying your sense of smell. I assess the cause of each symptom and propose effective solutions, from medical treatment to surgery if needed.

  • Allergic and vasomotor rhinitis
  • Acute and chronic sinusitis
  • Persistent nasal congestion
  • Nasal polyps
  • Smell disorders

  • Frequent sore throat or difficulty swallowing
  • Hoarseness lasting more than two weeks
  • Nasal congestion that does not improve with usual treatment

Frequently asked questions

How long does an ENT consultation take?

A first consultation usually lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, allowing enough time for a detailed medical history and a thorough examination.

Do I need to book an appointment in advance?

Yes, I work by appointment so I can give each patient the time they need. You can request an appointment through this website or by phone.

From what age can you see an ENT specialist?

I treat patients of all ages, from children with recurrent ear infections or tonsillitis to adults with hearing or voice problems.

When should I worry about persistent hoarseness?

If hoarseness lasts more than two weeks without improvement, it is important to examine the vocal cords to rule out lesions and establish an accurate diagnosis.

Can tinnitus be treated?

Tinnitus can have many causes. After a hearing and clinical assessment, a management plan can be established to improve the patient's quality of life.

What is the difference between a general ENT visit and a rhinology consultation?

A general ENT consultation covers ear, nose and throat. A rhinology consultation focuses exclusively on nasal and sinus conditions, including surgical assessment.

Your wellbeing starts with a clear diagnosis

My priority is that you understand your diagnosis and receive an effective, safe plan tailored to you.
