Mr Samuel Leong
Consultant ENT Surgeon
MPhil FRCSEd(ORL-HNS)
Specialises in
- Allergy
- Ear, nose and throat
- Balloon sinuplasty treatment
- Septoplasty surgery
- Sinus operation (FESS)
I am Merseyside's premier endoscopic sinus and nasal surgeon, based at Aintree University Hospital since 2015. I manage a variety of sinonasal problems; from a blocked nose due to a deviated septum or nasal allergy to extensive nasal polyps. I am the only surgeon in Liverpool to offer sinus surgery for hard-to-manage chronic sinusitis and frontal sinuses.
My clinical practice is focused entirely on nasal and sinus problems. I specialise in chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, revision sinus surgery (including frontal sinus), nasal tumours, watery eye and smell disorders. I am a highly trained and nationally recognised endoscopic sinonasal surgeon. I do not maintain a cosmetic or functional rhinoplasty practice.
My scope of practice at Spire Liverpool Hospital benefits from being a high-volume endoscopic sinus surgeon in the NHS. I have extensive experience in chronic sinusitis, frontal sinus surgery, managing nasal tumours and skull base problems such as CSF leaks.
I am on the organising or teaching faculty of multiple frontal sinus and endoscopic sinus surgery teaching courses in the UK and Europe.
