Advanced Tonsil & Adenoid Surgery

What are Tonsils & Adenoids?
Tonsils (at the back of the throat) and adenoids (behind the nose) are lymph tissues that help the body fight infection, mainly in early childhood.
When they become repeatedly infected or too large, they can block breathing, disturb sleep and cause ear problems. In such cases, surgical removal (tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy) using modern Coblation technology gives lasting relief with less pain and bleeding.
