Can anyone recommend a good paediatirc ENT specialist? DS#2 may need grommets so I'm getting in early with other peoples recommendations. Also any idea on how long waiting lists are?
Thanks for your help
Make sure you smile today,

From what i can work out there are 2 ENTs in Canberra. Dr Pham and Dr Chapman.
Dr Pham you mixed reports about but is relatively easy to get into. I personally had a bad experience with him when he inserted DD#1 grommets nearly 10 yrs ago so i wont go to him.
Dr Chapman is o/s working for another couple of months and has no locum ATM. In June (i think) i made an appointment for November. I would think by now you would be lucky to get an appointment for this year.
If it was reasonably urgent i would seriously be considering going to Sydney Grommets is only very short low key surgery.
Good luck

I took DS to see Dr Pham earlier this year due to numerous
ear infections & I found him to be very good, we had a 3
month wait to get in.

Dr Pham is who we saw with Lucy and who did her operation too. He was lovely and did a great job
