About Mr Hamid Daya

Mr Hamid Daya is a highly experienced Consultant ENT Surgeon with a specialist interest in Paediatric Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) surgery. He currently practises at St George’s Hospital, London, where he serves as the Lead for Paediatric ENT. He was recently recognised as one of the Top Private Specialists by Tatler, reflecting his national reputation in paediatric care.

Mr Daya has been in consultant practice since 2000 and is the Medical Director of “ent4kids”, a family-focused model of private paediatric ENT care that he developed to provide holistic, child-centred treatment within a supportive framework for families.

He qualified in medicine from the Universities of St Andrews and Manchester in 1988 and became a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England in 1993. He completed his postgraduate training in Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery in London in 1998. During this time, his interest in paediatric ENT deepened, leading him to undertake a prestigious two-year Fellowship in Paediatric ENT at the world-renowned Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada.

Mr Daya has particular expertise in middle ear disease and neck pathology. Within the NHS at St George’s Hospital, he is an active contributor to several multidisciplinary teams, including Paediatric Airway, Lymphatic and Vascular Malformations, and the Paediatric Soft Tissue Tumour Group at The Royal Marsden. He also works closely with the internationally recognised Foetal Medicine Team at St George’s, providing specialist ENT input for babies diagnosed antenatally with head and neck malformations, including complex cases that may require delivery via the EXIT procedure.

In addition to his paediatric practice, Mr Daya also treats adult patients with general ENT conditions, such as ear infections, tonsillitis, sinusitis, sore throats, and hearing loss.

Our son had his tonsils and adenoids removed. From start to finish Mr Daya and his team took the time to look after us all and was patient and kind throughout. We were home the same day and now 10 days later Harry is doing extremely well. The aftercare has been superb and when we need to ask a question or are feeling slightly anxious Mr Daya and his team are always available to help.- Highly recommended from us all and super grateful.

I recently had a consultation with Mr Daya after experiencing a hearing injury linked to a head wound. He saw me within a few days and this made a real difference during a very worrying time. The assessment was thorough and gave me reassurance I needed during a fearful time, I was prescribed the right medication to support my recovery at a particularly sensitive stage. I left the appointment feeling listened to, well cared for and confident in the treatment plan. I’m very grateful for the assessment and thoughtful care I received.

Peter underwent surgery to remove his tonsils two weeks ago . We arrived at the hospital at 8 o'clock, and overall, it was a fantastic experience. Peter reported that he didn’t feel any pain and was very happy to be able to eat while resting in bed. Although we arrived early, the surgery didn’t take place until 12:30 because he was the oldest patient scheduled. The decision to remove his tonsils was made due to his heavy breathing and sleep disturbances, issues we had not realized had persisted for several years. Following Mr. Daya’s advice, we proceeded with the surgery. Afterward, I was very impressed with Hanna Lauren, the pharmacist, who came by several times to explain the medications and ensured we received everything quickly, so we didn't have to wait after the surgery. Mr Daya was excellent as well, taking the time to explain the entire procedure. The anesthetist, Norma, checked on us post-surgery to ensure Peter was doing okay. Nurse Sally was fantastic, frequently coming in to monitor Peter’s observations, weight, and height, making sure everything was in order. Hanna, Anna and Miral went above and beyond to assist us, even helping Peter get three ice creams since he was eager for something cold. Elaine was wonderfully welcoming at reception, providing support throughout our visit. I’m glad we chose the Cromwell for this procedure. I also want to thank the catering team for being flexible with Peter’s food preferences, especially when he had little appetite. Overall, it was a great experience; Peter felt no pain and even managed to play in the playroom for half...
