Overall, patient experiences consistently praise the high standard of care provided by Mr Arora and his efficient team across all Adult Ear, Nose & Throat specialities.
i had an excellent experience with Arora - really appreciate the time and care he took to explain what was going on.
I'd put off having a minor surgery on my ear for many years (excision of pre-auricular sinus) - but in the end I'm glad I got it done. Mr. Arora and his team reassured and walked me through the whole process; very professional and easy to work with, and my recovery has been smooth and the issue fully resolved.
I first saw Mr Arora in 2023, for help with my sinuses and nose. From the first appointment, Dr Arora was welcoming and keen to properly understand my situation. In particular, I never felt rushed. Opting to exhaust non-surgical options before committing to surgery, I saw Dr Arora a number of times over the following year. Each time, he would take time to assess progress and walk me through options and explain what was actually happening in my nose/sinuses. Ultimately, we opted for surgery and in November 2025 I had a septoplasty and some work on my sinuses. The surgery went very well, and the care before and after was really appreciated. I am now breathing a lot better and have a notable reduction in sinus pressure (which should hopefully continue to decrease over the following months) I would highly recommend Dr Arora and am very grateful for his treatment over the last few years. His office, notably Emma B, is also very helpful and responsive. Thank you!
It was a great pleasure and privilege to consult with Dr. Asit Arora.
I visited Dr. Asit Arora in June 2025 for a deviated septum. He was very professional and clearly explained all the available options. We followed the necessary steps and eventually decided to go ahead with the surgery — and it was absolutely the right decision. My day-to-day life has improved tremendously since then. The surgery went smoothly; I only felt some discomfort for a couple of days. I recovered quickly, and the splint was removed a week later. Since then, I’ve had no pain or issues at all. It’s truly been a game changer. I can sleep properly again, exercise without difficulty, and breathe normally through my nose — something that was always a struggle before. I would highly recommend seeing Mr. Asit Arora if you’re dealing with similar problems. It’s been a real pleasure and a life-changing experience.
We received the most amazing care, Mr Arora is the most wonderful and caring Consultant, and cannot Thank him enough, as well as Emma his PA. Also the Anaesthetist (Dr John Myatt) was excellent, and the care given was amazing. He even called over the weekend to make the patient relax due to feeling anxious about the needle. Unbelievable care from all.
I visited Mr Arora to get advice regarding a tonsillectomy back in April. I had already seen another consultant privately, and someone on NHS. Mr Arora was the first person that actually sat me down and addressed my symptoms, instead of pushing me down a wrong path or brushing me off completely. I had three consultations, and then the surgery. He never rushed me and always had time to go over things I was worried about (which is great as an overthinker having their first operation!).
Mr Arora was thorough and explained all medical information in an accessible and understandable manner.
Very detailed and thorough. Mr Arora took the time to answer all my questions in full. I was very pleased with the high standard of professional care I received from Mr Arora.
HIghly skilled surgeon. Very highly recommended!
