How to book an appointment for a second opinion?

1. Contact the hospital appointment team and request a consultation with an ENT specialist for a second opinion before septoplasty.
2. Ask about the doctor's availability, consultation fee and appointment timings.
3. Carry your previous ENT consultation notes, nasal endoscopy findings, CT scan reports (if performed), prescriptions and any other relevant medical records.
4. Discuss your symptoms, such as difficulty breathing through the nose, frequent nasal blockage, snoring or repeated sinus problems.
5. Ask the doctor whether surgery is necessary, what benefits and risks it may have, and whether medication or other non-surgical options are appropriate.

A deviated septum does not always require surgery. Septoplasty may be considered when the deviation causes significant symptoms that do not improve sufficiently with appropriate medical treatment. The ENT specialist can advise you after examining your nose and reviewing your reports.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
