About Mr Turlough Farnan

Mr Turlough Farnan is an ENT Consultant at Kingsbridge Private Hospital. He is highly skilled in treating conditions affecting the nose and sinuses, including sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, deviated nasal septum and nasal polyps. He regularly performs endoscopic sinus surgery, rhinoplasty and septoplasty surgeries with great success rate, having performed several thousand procedures during his ENT career.

Mr Farnan graduated from Queen's University Belfast with a degree in Medicine in 1996, and completed specialist ENT training in 2009. Since then, he has gained extensive experience in both advanced cosmetic rhinoplasty and endoscopic sinus surgery through a fellowship with Mr Julian Rowe-Jones in Guildford, Surrey.

Patients typically come to his clinics with symptoms such as a blocked nose, congestion in the sinuses, a runny nose, or facial pain. He understands how these problems can have a significant impact on quality of life and he works closely with patients to develop an investigation and management plan. Mr Farnan is aware that each patient is different and aims to provide them with an individualised treatment strategy. If symptoms cannot be controlled with medication or lifestyle changes, they can be assured that he will use all his experience to guide them safely through their operative journey.
