Services Provided by Dr. Ridwaan Essa

Dr. Essa’s clinic provides a full spectrum of ENT services, addressing a variety of concerns related to ear, nose, and throat health. Below are some of the services offered:

Ear Services

• Grommets: This procedure involves inserting small tubes into the eardrum, allowing air to enter the middle ear and preventing fluid build-up. This treatment helps with chronic ear infections.
• Bone-Anchored Hearing Aid (BAHA): For patients with conductive hearing loss, Dr. Essa uses bone-anchored hearing aids to improve hearing by transmitting sound through bone conduction.
• Exostosis Removal: In cases of painful bone growth in the ear, Dr. Essa performs exostectomy to remove these growths and restore ear function.
• Myringoplasty: This procedure repairs perforated eardrums, improving hearing and preventing recurrent ear infections.
• Mastoidectomy: Dr. Essa may perform a mastoidectomy to remove infected tissue from the mastoid bone, improving drainage and overall ear health.

Nose Services

• Antrostomy: This procedure enlarges the maxillary sinus opening, which helps improve sinus drainage and facilitates further surgical treatment for sinus infections.
• Dacryocystorrhinostomy: Dr. Essa creates a new tear drainage opening to bypass blockages, helping reduce tearing and related symptoms.
• Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS): A minimally invasive surgery that improves sinus drainage, relieves pressure, and treats chronic sinusitis.
• Nasal Fracture Reduction: Dr. Essa realigns nasal bones that have been broken, improving both the function and appearance of the nose.
• Septoplasty: This surgery straightens the septum, allowing for better breathing and relief from issues such as snoring and sleep apnea.

Throat Services

• Tonsillectomy: Dr. Essa performs tonsillectomy to treat chronic tonsillitis, which helps reduce recurrent infections and improves overall health.
• Adenoidectomy: This procedure removes infected adenoid glands, which can cause breathing problems or recurrent infections.
• Bronchoscopy: Using a flexible tube with a camera, Dr. Essa examines the airways to identify abnormalities, such as blockages or tumours.
• Direct Laryngoscopy: This procedure allows Dr. Essa to examine the vocal cords, diagnosing any issues with the throat and voice.
