Your ears, nose, and throat, all part of your upper respiratory system, are vulnerable to a range of common infections and allergies, plus complaints individual to each one. We all expect to get the occasional cold or sore throat, but sometimes our ears, nose or throat are hit with something more debilitating, or a recurring problem leads us to seek treatment.
Hillsborough Private Clinic’s team of ENT specialists have years of experience diagnosing and treating the varied diseases that affect these organs, and will provide you with a quick and accurate diagnosis, as well as a prompt and effective treatment plan.

When Should You See an ENT Specialist?
You should always see an ENT specialist for serious ear, nose, or throat problems. If you are experiencing one or more of the following symptoms, we highly recommend you book a consultation as soon as possible:
Ear infections and other ailments
You should visit a member of our team if you are experiencing pain in your inner ear, or have an ear infection. If an ear infection is left undiagnosed and untreated, it could worsen and eventually lead to serious hearing loss. Other signs you should see a specialist are a ringing sound in your ear (tinnitus), or problems with balance, which normally indicate an ear problem.
Other treatments available at Hillsborough Private Clinic include dewaxing ears, drainage of middle ear glue, and grommet insertion.
If a child suffers from recurrent ear infections or an adult cannot hear, vents may be needed and can be inserted also at the Clinic.
Problems that affect your throat
The occasional sore throat is rarely anything to worry about, but if the condition persists, or you experience pain when you are talking or eating, you might have an infection or another serious problem. Treatments include tonsillectomy for recurrent tonsillitis/sore throats. Visit your ENT specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
Conditions that affect your nose
Problems with your sinuses and nasal cavity can affect your sense of taste, smell, and breathing. An infected sinus can also cause severe headaches and facial pain.
Other treatments we provide include nasal cautery, the removal of foreign bodies, cautery of nasal turbinates and snoring surgery.
