A neutral, editorial directory of notable ENT specialists practising in Singapore, grouped by sub-specialty to help you find the right expertise. This is not a ranking and not a paid listing.
How we compiled this directory
We list established, currently-practising ENT specialists with a clear public professional footprint, chosen to cover the main areas of ear, nose and throat care — not by who pays. Profiles are compiled from public sources and we omit ratings and prices, which we cannot independently verify. This is an independent editorial selection, not an advertisement — see our editorial policy. Always verify a doctor’s current registration on the SMC public register and choose based on your own needs, your GP’s referral and your insurance.

How to choose
- Match the sub-focus to your problem — a rhinologist for sinus/nose and allergy, an otologist for ear, hearing and dizziness, a head & neck surgeon for thyroid or neck lumps, a paediatric ENT for children, a sleep surgeon for snoring/sleep apnoea, or a laryngologist for the voice.
- Many ENT issues start with a GP — persistent symptoms (e.g. one-sided ear/nose symptoms, hoarseness over 3 weeks, a neck lump) should prompt an ENT review.
- Check registration on the SMC register and confirm fees; a GP referral helps with subsidised public-hospital care.
- See our ENT guides for symptom-specific information.

What an ENT specialist treats and when to see one
An ENT specialist (otolaryngologist) manages disorders of the ear, nose, throat, and head and neck — including hearing loss, dizziness, sinus and nasal problems, allergies, snoring and sleep apnoea, voice changes, swallowing difficulty, and neck lumps. Many issues start with a GP, who treats common infections and allergies and refers onward for persistent or one-sided symptoms. See an ENT specialist promptly for hoarseness lasting more than three weeks, a persistent neck lump, one-sided nasal blockage or hearing loss, unexplained ear bleeding, or recurrent severe nosebleeds.
What to look for when choosing an ENT specialist
Confirm the doctor is registered with the Singapore Medical Council and listed on the Register of Specialists in Otorhinolaryngology. ENT covers several sub-focuses, so matching expertise to your problem matters.
- A rhinologist for sinus, nose and allergy concerns.
- An otologist or neuro-otologist for hearing, tinnitus and dizziness.
- A head and neck surgeon for thyroid nodules and neck masses.
- A paediatric ENT for children, or a sleep surgeon for snoring and sleep apnoea.
Ask about hospital affiliation, access to audiology and imaging, and experience with the specific procedure you may need.
Public vs private ENT care
Public hospital ENT departments provide subsidised care through a GP or polyclinic referral, while private clinics offer shorter waits and continuity with one doctor at higher cost. Both are staffed by SMC-registered specialists.
Costs and financing
Surgical ENT procedures done as day surgery or inpatient care are often MediSave-claimable within prevailing limits, and MediShield Life may apply to larger hospital bills. Routine consultations, hearing aids and cosmetic procedures are generally not claimable. Confirm fees and claim eligibility with the clinic before proceeding.
Common questions
Do I need a referral to see an ENT specialist?
Not for private care, but a GP or polyclinic referral helps with subsidised public-hospital care and initial assessment.
Is a sleep study needed before treating snoring?
Often, yes. A sleep study helps distinguish simple snoring from obstructive sleep apnoea and guides treatment.
Should every neck lump be checked?
A neck lump that persists beyond a few weeks should be assessed, as ENT specialists can investigate the cause.
