Dear Blog guests,
Thank you for visiting my
blog.
This blog has been
designed to provide information on ear, nose, throat, head & neck
conditions and also special topics in facial plastic & reconstructive
surgery. Its purpose is to inform and educate in a simple, fun and digestible
format that most can understand… and yet garnish with a little extra
information just for those of you who would be medical students, or like to
dive that little deeper into understanding the body.
Who am I, and why blog?
I am a Specialist
Oto-rhino-laryngologist ( latin for” ear-nose-voice box” ) whose practice
include head and neck conditions as well as functional and aesthetic facial
plastic & reconstructive surgery. Over my years of practice, I have had
the real privilege of educating all levels of healthcare professionals, from lay
persons, nurses, medical students, peer specialists to professors, and from
public talks to major international meetings. And what have I noticed?
Irrespective of their individual
background, everyone is keen to learn especially if it is fun! The greatest joy
I have had, and still experience, is when I see that “light-bulb” turn on in
the eyes of my listener, when something I said suddenly forms that missing link
for the information they carry. It is a wonderful moment, and the information
delivered is usually minor, but their circuit is completed.
I can only educate with
the things I know so I hope you will enjoy and learn from my blog on my
specialty subject.
I dedicate this blog to
all those who have taught me “how to see and how to listen”, from my patients
to my professors. The world is my teacher…thank you for letting me share them
with you.
