About

I am applying for this position because I believe the role is a perfect match for my skills, qualities, experiences, and ambitions. I have 8 years of experience in ENT. Working in a tertiary care hospital has provided me with extensive experience dealing with a wide range of ENT problems.

I am a calm and composed surgeon with substantial experience in the field of ENT. Having worked at government hospitals has allowed me to gain plenty of first-hand clinical exposure, and I can perform most outpatient procedures independently. I have significant clinical exposure in paediatric cases, having worked in an institute attached to a dedicated paediatric hospital.

I am confident in performing the majority of routine ENT surgeries independently and am also capable of executing complex procedures under the direct supervision of consultants. I have assisted consultants and performed major cases like total laryngectomy, neck dissection, and thyroidectomy both under supervision and independently during my recent fellowship. I am also skilled at caring for post-operative patients in the hospital.

My role as a senior resident has given me the confidence to handle emergency cases independently. I can perform emergency procedures like tracheostomy, esophagoscopy, and incision and drainage of head and neck abscesses independently. I am aware of my limitations and will never hesitate to seek help when necessary.
