Bradford Teaching Hospitals Foundation Trust

Head & Neck

Directorate Information

The bringing together of our services within one working unit has provided some unique opportunities to improve and advance our services for patients with complex conditions. We have looked, and will continue to look, at the methods of diagnosis and treatment to ensure that patients are treated as soon as possible and spend the minimum amount of time in hospital.

We have an excellent record in advancing medical practice and we aid professional development for other organisations through our established training programmes in Ear Nose and Throat (ENT), audiology, cochlear implants, maxillofacial and orthodontics.

Most of our services are delivered through modern, purpose-built facilities, which are equipped with advanced surgical equipment.
