Immunizations Vaccines
Vaccines stimulate the body’s own immune system to protect the person against subsequent infection or disease, thus providing immunization.
Pap Smears
A Pap smear is a screening procedure for cervical cancer. It tests for the presence of precancerous or cancerous cells on the cervix.
Wound Dressings
A dressing is a sterile pad or compress applied to a wound to promote healing and protect the injury from further harm, as well as to stem any blood loss that may occur.
Nasal Endoscopy
Nasal endoscopy is a procedure to look at the nasal and sinus passages. It’s done with an endoscope, which is a thin, flexible tube with a tiny camera and a light.
Laryngoscopy
Laryngoscopy is endoscopy of the larynx, a part of the throat. This is done so that a doctor can obtain a view, for example, of the vocal folds and the glottis.
Wax Removal
Earwax removal is a delicate process. Our doctors will remove the earwax with a small curette or use gentle suction. Ear drops will also be used if required.
Fine Needle Biopsies Of Lumps And Bumps
Fine needle biopsy allows our doctors to retrieve enough tissue for microscopic analysis and thus make an accurate diagnosis of a number of problems, such as inflammation or cancer.
Excision Biopsy Of Lumps And Bumps
An excisional biopsy also called a wide local incision, involves surgical removal of a tumor and some normal tissue around it.
Ultrasound-guided Needle Biopsies
An ultrasound-guided biopsy is used to learn more about a lesion or mass. This is done by using ultrasound to find the lesion or mass and is often used for lymph node, breast, and liver biopsies.
Scar Injections
Noticeable, poorly healed scars can affect how you feel, especially if they are located in a visible place. Our scar injections help minimise and flatten the prominence of scars.
ECG’s
An ECG records the electrical activity of your heart at rest. You may need this test if you have risk factors for heart disease such as high blood pressure, or symptoms such as palpitations or chest pain.
Endoscopic radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinate reduction
Our ENT Surgeons perform reduction of the inferior nasal turbinates for the treatment of persistent nasal obstruction. The use of radiofrequency provides a safe method with minimal bleeding.
Myringotomy and grommet insertion
For adults with persistent fluid in the middle ears, our ENT Surgeons can perform myringotomy to drain the fluid and to place a pressure equalization tube to ventilate the middle ear and hence improve the hearing and prevent re-accumulation of fluid.
Ultrasound evaluation
Our Consultant Interventional Radiologist performs ultrasound examinations of the neck, abdomen and pelvis as well as Doppler ultrasound evaluation of the venous and arterial system. Our Obstetricians & Gynaecologist can also perform pelvic and Obstetric Ultrasounds.
Treatment of ingrown toenails
