I'm finding these really useful in Zoom consultations for tonsil problems. It allows me to assess whether it is worth the patient making the trip to London for a local anaesthetic spray laser tonsillectomy or whether we need to book a hospital for a general anaesthetic procedure. Saves a lot of time.

Yes we just put them in the list to you, no charge. They are disposable bore scopes but perfectly safe as usb powered. Similar in size to a normal nasoenedoscope. For an appointment just call HealthHub on 02078709166. Mike Dilkes

I found it incredibly useful on my recent consultation with you, it saved me an 8 hour trip to have a consultation, I am now booked in for my procedure which I know will definitely be happening on the day because you have already seen my throat thanks to this handy instrument

Hi Mike, could I please arrange a zoom apt as I have a consultation booked in a few weeks and would rather save (or not) the travelling required? (Nabila Jones)
