Many people use nasal sprays daily, yet you would be surprised at how many of us are not using them correctly.

Common mistakes like tilting the head back too far, spraying directly onto the septum, or blowing the nose immediately after application can reduce effectiveness, cause irritation, and even prolong the symptoms you are trying to relieve.

Proper usage ensures the medicine reaches the right areas in your nasal passages, allowing for maximum benefit with minimal side effects.

Unfortunately, most patients are never shown the right method, leaving them frustrated when their sprays don’t seem to work as expected.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing it right, now is the perfect time to check!

Messages like this remind me why I take time with every patient - to listen, explain, and guide with empathy.

A successful CSF leak or skull base surgery is never the work of one person. It takes a coordinated team of ENT, neurosurgery, anesthesia, and nursing colleagues, all aligned toward one goal - optimal outcomes for our patients.

I’m deeply grateful to our multidisciplinary team whose collaboration makes this level of care possible, and to patients and families who place their trust in us. Your kind words mean a great deal

We all know someone who snores and for many, it’s harmless (though maybe not for the person sharing the bed!).

While occasional snoring is common, loud or frequent snoring can signal something more serious, like sleep apnea.

This condition causes your breathing to repeatedly stop and start during sleep, reducing oxygen levels and putting stress on your heart and brain.

Left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, memory problems, and constant daytime fatigue. It can even affect your mood, focus, and overall quality of life.

If you or someone you love snores heavily, wakes up gasping for air, or struggles to feel rested no matter how much sleep they get, it’s time to get checked. Sleep should restore you, not put your health at risk.

What we eat can sometimes stir up more than just hunger as certain foods can actually contribute to sinus inflammation and discomfort.

This is because certain ingredients trigger your body’s immune response, causing swelling and increased mucus production in your nasal passages.

While avoiding certain foods might not be a magic fix, being mindful of triggers can help reduce inflammation and ease discomfort.

If sinus issues are bothering you, don’t hesitate to reach out! Together, we can explore effective ways to keep your sinuses clear and keep you breathing easy. Small dietary adjustments, combined with proper care, can make a world of difference!

We often associate hearing loss with something that “just happens with age,” but the truth is, it can start earlier and more subtly than we expect.

Sometimes it’s missing the punchline of a joke, struggling to follow conversations in a busy room, or constantly asking loved ones to repeat themselves.

If you’ve noticed these signs (or if someone close to you seems to be struggling) it’s worth having it checked. My team will work with you to catch those changes early and keep life sounding just right.

After all, hearing well isn’t just about sound, but connection, safety, and quality of life.

Many people think ENT stops at treating sinus & ear infections, thyroid goitres, and snoring. As an endoscopic skull base surgeon, I work at the intersection of precision and complexity.

I use tiny instruments and cameras to access deep areas of the skull through the nose! No external cuts - just minimally invasive.

From removing tumors to repairing leaks around the brain, I get to help people in big ways, through one very small entry point.

Think about it like performing surgery through a keyhole with a GPS system and a steady hand.Yes, it’s brain-adjacent.

Yes, it’s high-stakes. But, these procedures offer less trauma, faster recovery time, lower complications, and improved surgical outcomes.

"So, you’re a nose doctor?” Yes, I am 🙂

A large part of my portfolio focuses on the practice of rhinology, where I treat the nose, sinuses, and interface between the nose and brain.

From chronic sinus infections, septal deviations, nasal congestion, smell disorders to polyps, tumours, and complex surgeries - this specialty allows me to help patients breathe easier every single day.

It’s about improving the quality of life, restoring function, and, sometimes, catching issues that go far deeper than the nose.

The nose may seem small, but in the ENT world, it is mighty.

We often see children (and sometimes adults) with issues like constant nasal congestion, snoring, mouth breathing, and recurrent sinus or ear infections.

Enlarged adenoids - One often-overlooked culprit!

Adenoids sit at the back of the nasal cavity, and when they become swollen (whether from repeated infections or allergies), they can block airflow and affect sleep, speech, and hearing.

If your child always sounds congested (even when they’re not sick), breathes through their mouth, or snores loudly at night, it may be time to get those adenoids checked.

A quick assessment can go a long way in improving quality of life (and quieting those nighttime lumberjacks!).

Thyroid Goitre Evaluation & Treatment

Noticed a lump in your neck?
Trouble swallowing, pressure when lying down, or voice changes?

Assessment starts with a check-up by our ENT team. You may need a neck ultrasound, thyroid blood tests, or even a biopsy. Early detection can make all the difference.
