My clinical interests apart from routine ENT are: otology ( ear conditions and  surgery),  voice and swallowing problems,  nasal allergies,  salivary gland surgery with special interest in sialendoscopy ( endoscopic procedures),  vocal cord injection as well as thyroplasty implants to improve voice.  I work alongside my audiology colleague so that hearing tests can be performed on the day.  Balance problems ; sinus conditions are managed by me  dewaxing of ears are managed in my clinic.  I have a research interest in voice and medical education.
