FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What conditions can an ENT clinician help with?
An ENT clinician assesses and manages a wide range of ear, nose and throat concerns, including blocked ears, ear wax build-up, dizziness, hearing-related symptoms and throat problems.
What is ear wax removal by microsuction?
Microsuction is a precise method of removing ear wax using gentle suction under direct vision. It is commonly used for blocked ears, reduced hearing, discomfort or wax build-up that has not improved with drops.
Will I need a referral for ENT treatment?
In many private ENT services, you can book directly without needing a GP referral. After assessment, you will be advised whether treatment can be provided at the clinic or whether further investigations or specialist referral would be more appropriate.
