Patients seeking an ENT specialist in Mumbai can enquire about consultations with Dr. Meenesh Juvekar at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, or Bombay Hospital & Medical Research Centre, subject to current appointment availability. His clinical interests in sinus surgery, facial nerve conditions, and sleep apnoea make his professional profile relevant to patients seeking specialised ENT assessment.
Endoscopic sinus surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat selected cases of chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, and persistent sinus blockage. A small camera and specialised instruments allow surgeons to access the sinus passages through the nostrils. The procedure aims to improve sinus drainage and reduce recurring symptoms when appropriate medical treatment is insufficient.
Facial nerve surgery may be considered for selected conditions affecting the nerve responsible for facial movement. These can include injuries, certain tumours, and other causes of facial nerve dysfunction. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may involve nerve decompression, repair, or reconstruction. Thorough specialist evaluation is necessary to determine the most appropriate approach.
Sleep apnoea is a condition involving repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep. Symptoms may include loud snoring, daytime tiredness, and disturbed sleep. ENT assessment can help identify anatomical airway obstruction. Treatment may include lifestyle measures, positive airway pressure therapy, oral appliances, or selected surgical procedures based on sleep-study results.
Cochlear implant surgery is considered for appropriately selected patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss who receive limited benefit from conventional hearing aids. The implanted device electrically stimulates the auditory nerve. Careful hearing assessments, surgical evaluation, device programming, and auditory rehabilitation are important parts of the overall treatment process.
Tympanoplasty is a surgical procedure used to repair a perforated eardrum and, in some cases, address associated middle-ear problems. It may be recommended for persistent eardrum perforations, repeated infections, or certain types of hearing impairment. The procedure aims to restore the eardrum's integrity and may improve hearing depending on the underlying condition.
Septoplasty is performed to correct a deviated nasal septum that contributes to significant nasal obstruction or breathing difficulty. During surgery, the surgeon repositions or reshapes the cartilage and bone separating the nasal passages. The procedure is generally considered when symptoms interfere with daily activities and conservative management has not provided sufficient relief.
Nasal polypectomy involves removing nasal polyps, which are soft, non-cancerous growths associated with chronic inflammation of the nasal lining. Larger polyps may cause nasal congestion, reduced sense of smell, or sinus blockage. Surgery may be considered when medication is ineffective, with ongoing medical management often needed to reduce recurrence.
Tonsillectomy is the surgical removal of the tonsils. It may be recommended for recurrent, well-documented tonsillitis, complications of tonsillar disease, or enlarged tonsils contributing to obstructive sleep-disordered breathing. The decision depends on symptom severity, frequency, medical history, and assessment of the potential benefits and risks of surgery.
Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, commonly caused by viral or bacterial infections. Symptoms may include sore throat, fever, painful swallowing, and swollen tonsils. Management depends on the cause and severity and may involve supportive care, appropriate medication, or surgical consideration for selected patients experiencing recurrent or complicated infections.
Frontal sinus surgery is considered for selected patients with persistent disease affecting the frontal sinuses, particularly when symptoms continue despite appropriate medical treatment. Endoscopic techniques may help restore drainage pathways, remove obstructing tissue, and manage certain inflammatory conditions. The surgical approach is selected following clinical examination and imaging evaluation.
Head and neck tumour surgery involves assessing and, where appropriate, removing selected benign or malignant growths affecting structures in the head and neck. Treatment planning depends on tumour type, location, stage, and the patient's general health. Cancer cases frequently require multidisciplinary evaluation involving surgical, medical, and radiation oncology specialists.
Paediatric ENT evaluation focuses on ear, nose, and throat conditions affecting infants and children. Common concerns include recurrent ear infections, hearing difficulties, enlarged tonsils, snoring, and nasal obstruction. A specialist assessment may involve hearing tests, examination of the upper airway, and age-appropriate treatment recommendations based on the child's symptoms and developmental needs.
