After long standing issues with continuous frequent sinus problems, feeling drained of energy and in fear of the next sinus infection, I managed to find Mr Kelly. He performed the necessary tests/diagnosis and identified the need to perform a Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). He talked me through the operation, provided all necessary information/material for me to read and investigate (he also followed up any additional queries i had), upon which I decided to undertaken the FESS.
The procedure (FESS) has been of great benefit, its been around 2yrs and to date (touch wood) I have not had any sinus issues, sore throats, infections, headaches or all the other issues that troubled me in the past. A really good result and notable positive difference in health. Mr Kelly performed the procedure as a day case and the recovery period went well with no issues.
I would recommend Mr Kelly to others who have such sinus issues or are considering a FESS.

Response from Mr Gerard Kelly
Thank you, endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a great treatment in the right case. I think one of the most important aspects of treatment is getting the diagnosis correct. FESS is only effective in sinusitis, so a careful history and examination and investigations are the key to the correct operation (and of course a meticulous technique in the surgery itself)! One of the things that patients dislike about nasal surgery is nasal packing and now I use nasal packing in less than a few percent of cases. GK
