Private treatment for Ear, Nose and Throat concerns
Whether you have tonsillitis, experience discomfort in your ears, or concerned about an infection; our specialist ENT surgeons will provide you with a quick diagnosis and treatment plan that is tailored to you.
We offer the following ENT services and treatments at The Highfield:
Sinus surgery is suitable for patients who have chronically blocked and sore sinuses. You may experience severe headaches, pain around the face and a loss of smell and taste.
Sinus surgery can remove the blockage, treat the pain and improve your quality of life. When your nose is blocked, the sinuses no longer drain. The procedure to clear the sinus opening is called a maxillary antrostomy.
We understand that the prospect of surgery may cause you to feel anxious and concerned. At The Highfield, we pride ourselves on our patient-focused approach as we listen to your concerns and prioritise your health and wellbeing.
