What is ENT for children/ ENT4KIDS / Otolaryngology?
Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery (ENT) is also known as Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery. This area of medicine is concerned with disorders of the ears, nose, throat, head and neck, including concerns about hearing, breathing and swallowing difficulties and general abnormalities of the head and neck. This includes assessment and management or advice regarding concerns about ear infections, hearing, speech delay, tonsillitis, blocked and snotty noses and snoring.
ENT Surgeons (or otolaryngologists) are specialist doctors who deal with medical and surgical treatment of conditions of the ears, nose, throat and structures of the head and neck.
Our specialist Children's ENT doctor is Associate Professor Murali Mahadevan. Murali has been a paediatric ENT consultant for 25+ years with experience in all facets of ORL.
