Miss Ayeshah Abdul-Hamid qualified in Medicine from Keele University in 2012 and went on to complete her ENT training in leading centres across London, Oxford and the Thames Valley. In 2023, she completed the Oxford otology fellowship, where she gained further expertise in complex cases.
Her practice covers the full range of general ENT in adults and children, with particular expertise in ear and hearing problems, dizziness and balance disorders, sinus and nasal disease, snoring, hoarseness and swallowing difficulties. She runs specialised balance and voice clinics at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford providing detailed assessment and tailored management for patients with complex dizziness or voice change.
Miss Abdul-Hamid’s style is calm, direct and patient-focused. She takes time to listen, explains investigations and treatment options clearly and works with patients to agree a realistic plan, whether that involves watchful waiting, medication, procedures in clinic, or surgery.
