Led by Sri Mahalingam, award-winning Consultant Ear, Nose & Throat Surgeon, this new practice, is located in the heart of Tunbridge Wells as part of KIMS Hospital, and focuses on providing accessible specialist care for patients experiencing ENT conditions, from chronic sinus problems to hearing loss and throat disorders. With many patients facing long waiting times for specialist appointments, the clinic aims to offer timely assessments and treatment options for those referred by their GP or seeking expert care.The clinic provides comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for a wide range of ENT conditions. Patients can access specialist consultations for persistent ear infections, sinus issues, tinnitus, hearing difficulties, nasal obstruction, and throat problems. The practice offers diagnostic procedures, including endoscopic examinations, hearing assessments, and imaging coordination. Treatment options range from medical management and minimally invasive procedures to surgical interventions when necessary.
"Too many people live with ENT symptoms that significantly affect their quality of life. Whether it's difficulty hearing conversations, constant sinus pain, or sleep disruption from breathing problems," a company spokesperson said. "Our goal is to help patients understand what's causing their symptoms and what treatment options are available. We know that visiting a specialist can feel overwhelming, so we focus on clear communication and helping patients feel confident about their care decisions. Every consultation is about listening to the patient's concerns and working together to find the right solution."
For residents seeking an ENT specialist Kent, the new clinic provides local access to expert care without extensive travel. Many ENT conditions develop gradually, and patients often delay seeking specialist help because symptoms seem manageable at first. However, early assessment can prevent conditions from worsening and improve treatment outcomes. The practice accepts both NHS referrals and private patients, recognising that flexibility in access to care matters to people with busy lives or urgent concerns that need addressing.
The clinic's patient-centered approach reflects a growing need for clear, accessible specialist care in the region. From initial consultation through treatment and follow-up care, the practice maintains open communication with patients and their referring doctors. For anyone experiencing persistent ENT symptoms in the Tunbridge Wells area, specialist assessment can provide answers and relief that general treatment approaches may not achieve.
