About

Mr Rishi Sharma is a Consultant Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) and Anterior Skull-Base Surgeon based in Cambridge. His NHS practice is at Addenbrooke's Hospital and he sees private patients Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital and Nuffield Health Cambridge Hospital.

Mr Sharma completed his medical degree at the University of Oxford in 2006 and completed his postgraduate training in top teaching hospitals in London and East Anglia including St George's Hospital, The Royal National Throat, Nose and Ear Hospital and Guy's & St Thomas' Hospital. Following his training, he completed two prestigious fellowships in Glasgow and Vancouver, Canada where he completed a fellowship accredited by the American Rhinology Society.

Mr Sharma has clinical expertise in all types of sinus and nasal conditions in both adults and children. He also manages general ENT conditions as well as complex sino-nasal conditions. He also has expertise in the surgical treatment and management of these conditions, including functional endoscopic sinus surgery, tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, septoplasty, functional septorhinoplasty, sino-nasal tumour surgery, nasal polypectomy, nose bleeds, CSF leak repairs and endoscopic skull-base surgery.

A large proportion of his practice focuses on revision sinus surgery and expanded approach sinus surgery for the difficult to treat sinus patient who may have failed with more conservative surgical approaches.

He also has research interests in novel surgical techniques and medical therapies for the treatment of sinus disease. He has published several peer-reviewed papers and authored numerous textbook chapters in his field of expertise.

From the first meeting I felt comfortable and confident he could carry out what was required. No fuss explained what was needed. Booked an appoint for 3 weeks later woke up from operation could feel an improvement straight away. No issues with operation all went well was in at 7am left at 1pm. 2 weeks later returned and had plastic removed from both nostrils and felt fantastic. Never had so much enter my nose in one go. Highly recommend this procedure and highly recommend MR Sharma true professional and very good at his job. You will be in safe hands. It was a pleasure. Thank you to mr Sharma and his team.
