Mr Asit Arora

Written by a patient at Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital

I went in to have a septo-rhinoplasty operation within the ENT clinic at the Throat Nose & Ear Hospital in Kings Cross. My previous appointments had been at the Royal Free with a different doctor, but she was ill on the day of my operation and Mr Asit Arora came across from the Royal Free to do the operation. Obviously a change in surgeon on the day of the operation is a bit of a shock, but Mr Asit Arora was really calm, had a great demeanour and settled any nerves I had immediately. I spoke to Asit after coming out the operation. Who informed it all went well. The nurses then took over and the care I received was great. I was allowed home (which for me was important, as I hate hospitals!) and I think that aided my recovery. The after care from Asit in my two follow up appointments has been equally as good. Talking through all parts of the process, what he was doing, what it was to achieve, what I should and shouldn't be doing and why. When inspecting my nose, removing the cast, splints, stitches etc the procedure is never going to be pleasant but Asit did all this with care and attention. Even with a busy waiting room outside it never felt rushed. To summarise, I found Asit a pleasure, he was a friendly face giving me all the information I required, treating me kindly and like an adult, which made the whole process a lot easier.

As this was the second surgery I have had to have on my ear, it made me a little apprehensive at the beginning of the surgery. Dr Arora however, was completely in control of what he was doing. He made me feel totally at ease with the whole surgery, from start to finish. He explained in great detail exactly what the procedure would entail. He was so humble and friendly I almost for got what I had come in for. At my first check up he explained exactly what had been done by using the ear model, which made me fully understand the surgery and the complication that occurred due to the previous surgery. He explained the recovery process and what I should expect I found that to be extremely helpful. 3 weeks on my surgery was a complete success thanks to Dr Arora. I am so very please that I followed his advise to the letter and am now on the road to fully recovering. If you ever have a ENT issue I would very highly recommend Dr Arora. He sets the bar very high for how his work should be carried out. I feel the receptionist's at clinic 5 could be a bit more hospitable towards the patients. I felt that on both occasion when attending the clinic they were a tad rude and some what dismissive of patients query's by rushing them and giving sharp and some what abrupt answers. But over all excellent treatment.

My doctor put me totally at ease was incredibly caring and listened to everything I had to say. He explained everything that he was going to do and also what the problems might or might not have been. I had to have a camera placed up my nose and down my throat however he talked me through the whole thing and I felt totally calm. I would highly recommend this doctor I thought he was brilliant.

Having attended his ENT clinic at The Royal Free Hospital, I found Asit to be very attentive and keen to get to the root of my chronic condition. He has been extremely courteous and professional and very friendly and personable. The treatment he prescribed reduced my nasal polyps to such an extent that surgery may not be needed at all. Altogether a very pleasing outcome.

The clinic (Edgware 13/08/15) was running almost 2 hours late however Mr Arora made me feel that I was the most important patient clearly explaining the course of action and proceedures. Foundation Trust Member 13113
