Every subspecialty
Rhinology and allergy, otology and hearing, head and neck, sleep and snoring surgery, with direct links to skull base and cancer services.

For referring doctors
Refer to the specialist, not a switchboard
Urgent and semi-urgent cases can be discussed directly with the surgeon on their rooms line. Referrals by fax or email go straight to that specialist’s reception. Tertiary and complex cases can be directed to our Darlinghurst clinic. If the right surgeon isn’t obvious, send the referral to any of us and we will place it with the right colleague.
