FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I see an ENT specialist?

You should book a consultation if you have persistent symptoms such as hearing loss, chronic sinus pain, ringing in the ears, voice changes, or recurring throat infections that are not resolving with standard GP care.

Do I need a GP referral for an ENT consultation in Birmingham?

While many private health insurance policies require a GP referral, self-paying patients can often book a direct appointment with our ENT specialists. Please contact our team to confirm.

What happens during an ENT appointment?

Your consultant will review your medical history and listen to your symptoms. They will then perform a physical examination of the ear, nose, or throat using specialised instruments like an otoscope or nasoendoscope.

What tests might an ENT specialist recommend?

Depending on your symptoms, we may recommend a hearing test (audiogram), allergy testing, nasal endoscopy, or imaging, such as a CT or MRI, to confirm the diagnosis.

Can ENT conditions be treated without surgery?

Yes. The vast majority of ENT conditions are managed non-surgically through medication, lifestyle changes, and minor outpatient therapies. Surgery is typically considered only when conservative treatments have not been effective.

How quickly can I get an appointment?

At House of Health, we pride ourselves on offering fast access to private healthcare. You can typically secure an appointment within a few days.

Is private ENT treatment covered by insurance?

Most ENT consultations and treatments are covered by major private health insurers. We recommend checking your policy coverage and obtaining an authorisation code before your appointment.
