Services & Conditions

Everything ear, nose
& throat — under one roof.

From simple in-rooms treatments to advanced surgery, Dr Singh manages the full spectrum of ENT and head & neck conditions for adults and children. Explore the areas below, or try the interactive procedure guide to know exactly what to expect.

Ear, hearing & balance

From blocked, painful ears to hearing loss, ringing and dizziness — Dr Singh diagnoses and treats the full range of ear conditions using microscopic and endoscopic techniques.

Assessment of reduced or muffled hearing, gentle wax-free microsuction, and referral for hearing aids where needed.

Treatment of recurrent infections and fluid behind the eardrum, including grommet (ventilation tube) insertion.

Investigation of ringing in the ears, dizziness and vertigo to find the cause and a management plan.

Microscopic surgery to repair perforated eardrums and treat chronic ear disease.

Nose, sinus & breathing

If you can't breathe freely, everything suffers — sleep, energy, focus. Dr Singh gets to the source of nasal blockage and sinus disease so you can breathe easy again.

Medical and surgical treatment for repeated sinus infections, facial pressure and post-nasal drip.

Septoplasty and turbinate reduction to open a chronically blocked nose.

Keyhole (endoscopic) surgery to remove polyps and restore healthy sinus drainage.

Diagnosis and management of allergic rhinitis and reduced sense of smell.

Throat & voice

Whether it's a throat that keeps flaring up, a voice that won't settle or trouble swallowing, Dr Singh protects the way you speak, swallow and sleep.

For recurrent throat infections — removal of the tonsils when they cause repeated illness.

Assessment of a hoarse or changed voice — especially important if it lasts more than three weeks.

Investigation of pain or difficulty swallowing and throat-related acid reflux.

Snoring & sleep apnoea

Loud snoring and disrupted sleep aren't just annoying — they can affect your health and safety. Dr Singh assesses the airway and offers real solutions.

Finding out where the snoring comes from — nose, palate or throat — and how to reduce it.

Evaluation of pauses in breathing during sleep, with surgical and non-surgical airway options.

Paediatric ENT

Children aren't small adults — they need a gentle, patient approach. Dr Singh puts little patients (and their parents) at ease.

A quick day procedure to treat glue ear and recurrent infections, restoring hearing for school and speech.

Removal when children have repeated infections, blocked breathing or disturbed sleep.

Assessment where hearing may be affecting a child's speech or development.
