The Ear, Nose and Throat regions of the body have very delicate organs situated within its deep crevices. These are parts involved in important functions like smell, respiration, swallowing, taste, voice, speech, hearing and balance. They are also seats for potential diseases like various infections and more importantly cancer. Exposure to air and noise pollution and also to other carcinogens (tobacco, betel nut ,etc) makes these parts vulnerable to a variety of diseases.
The ENT department has well-trained, motivated, and experienced staff including 2 ENT Specialists and a speech therapist/audiologist to investigate and manage an array of conditions. It is also equipped with highly advanced equipment to aid in investigations and treatment. Apart from routine diagnostic ENT procedures/head and Neck Surgeries, the department is also embarking on a Post Cochlear Implant Rehabilitation Program, Universal New Born Hearing Screening, and Head & Neck Cancer Awareness.
