Outpatient Clinics & Emergency Department
ENT – HEAD & NECK SURGERY
The otorhinolaryngology or ENT Department of SEA Medical Health Clinic provides every diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical service for every case and disease in these sensitive areas of our body.
It is fully equipped with modern equipment, while the physician has long expertise and experience in Greece and abroad since he is one of the 22 ENT surgeons in Europe specialized in the surgical application of Total Middle Ear Implant – Envoy (Esteem Implant – Bionic Ear).
The Department can carry out comprehensive testing of:
- Rhinology – Rhinoplasty (FESS): Treating of epistaxis (nosebleeds) and other emergencies, such as the preoperative testing for the treatment of nasal septum scoliosis, nasal cavity polyps, and oncological pathologies of the nose through endoscopic rhinoplasty. Moreover, an imaging/electronic evaluation of the nasal anatomy and aesthetics is performed, and the appropriate surgical solutions (aesthetic) through rhinoplasty are suggested.
- Endoscopic testing of Upper Respiratory Tract & Larynx Apparatus: (epipharynx, nasal cavities, pharynx, hypopharynx, larynx). For these, the method of endoscopy and recording of these areas with a Video camera is applied. It is a painless and very rapid method. Moreover, it allows for the testing of difficult to reach and inaccessible areas, and enables the recording of the abnormal finding, so that it is electronically stored; subsequently, following treatment, it can be compared to determine the outcome.
- Neurotology: (Hearing – posterior labyrinth) with audiogram, tympanogram or the determination of sound reflexes and videonystagmography. In this way, both the hearing function and the posterior labyrinth are fully tested, in cases of vertigo.
- Hearing Implants: Possibility for the preoperative evaluation and surgical application of middle ear implants (auditory chain bypass) or cochlear implants.
- Pediatric – Otorhinolaryngology: Significant specialization in Pediatric ENT with many clinical and surgical interventions, with many years of training both in Greece and abroad.
