      I had a septoplasty, turbinoplasty and tonsillectomy performed by Dr. Bala, and I’m extremely grateful for the excellent care I received. From the first consultation, everything was explained clearly and professionally, which gave me a lot of confidence going into the surgery. The procedure went very well and the results have been life-changing as my snoring issues have disappeared and my breathing has improved tremendously. Recovery was smoother than I expected, and the follow-up care was attentive and reassuring. I truly appreciate the skill, professionalism and care shown throughout the entire process by Dr. Bala and his assistants - PA Emma and Maya. I would highly recommend Dr. Bala to anyone needing ENT treatment.

      I had sinus surgery with Dr. Bala last month, and the care provided by him and nurses Emma and Maya was authentic, excellent, and efficient. During my pre-consultation, Dr. Bala easily identified my issue, and the procedure following the consultation went very smoothly. My post-op check-ups were not only managed well, but the care given was impeccable. There were multiple times I had to see Dr. Bala at the last minute, and the nurses were very accommodating of my needs despite their busy schedules. I would definitely recommend Dr. Bala to anyone looking for an ENT specialist

      Dr. Bala is one of a kind. He truly has a heart of gold and a level of passion for his work that is rare to find. From the very first consultation, you can feel his utmost care and genuine determination to see you get better. He is incredibly professional, but it’s his heartfelt tending that truly sets him apart as an ENT specialist. Before I went to see Dr. Bala, i went to a different hospital where the ENT specialist wouldnt even scope my nose or ear and just brush it off for gerd. He said even if i do suction, the mucus will come back. All that after waiting for 2 hours. I left frustrated and untreated. After that i looked up ENT specialists and found out abt Dr. Bala who is also an oromaxilofacial specialist. The rest is history. Even my dad is so happy and grateful with his treatment. A huge thank you as well to Emma and Maya. They are so accommodating, kind, and professional, making every visit a smooth and comfortable experience. I wish Dr. Bala and team all the best forever and always!!

      I did my sinus surgery with Dr. Bala and was admitted here. Overall I enjoyed my stay and the staffs were very friendly and helpful. At anytime, I would choose Thomson Hospital as my first choice as they have the best doctors along with friendly staff nurses.
